Sennheiser
MD 445
Dynamic · Supercardioid · 40–20,000 Hz
- The supercardioid sibling of the MD 435, and the wired twin of the MM 445 wireless capsule.
- Reaches 20 kHz like the MD 435 but with a tighter pattern and about 1 dB less output.
Frequency response
No response curve yet.
MicSense only draws a curve traced from a graph the manufacturer actually publishes — it never estimates one from the microphone’s class. Sennheiser publishes figures for the MD 445 but no response graph, so the numbers are in the spec table below and the chart stays empty.
Polar pattern
Generated from the first-order directivity formula for supercardioid. It illustrates the pattern type — it is not a measurement of this individual model.

What it gets used for
- FOH vocal
- Monitor vocal
MicSense tags microphones by the job on a live stage, not by studio category — so you can filter for “kick in” or “monitor vocal” instead of working backwards from “large-diaphragm condenser”.
Compare it against the alternatives.
MicSense lets you put up to four microphones side by side — spec table, overlaid response curves and polar diagrams on one screen. Free with a free Squaresmile account.
