Oktava MK-220
Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone
The MK-220 is a large-diaphragm, multipattern FET condenser microphone based on Oktava’s popular MK-319.
It shares the domed headbasket design of the MK-319, the 28mm diaphragm with perforated “resonator disc,” the -10dB pad and high-pass filter. The transformer in both mics is identical.
The MK-220 differs in that the capsule has dual diaphragms, and the mic has a rotary pattern-selection switch that allows selection of Cardioid, Omni, or Bidirectional pickup patterns.
Like the MK-219 (which shares the MK-319’s 28mm single-sided capsule) and MK-319, the MK-220 is likely an excellent candidate for mods, because the capsule is generally considered to be good, if dark sounding, and the stock transformer is as well.
