Josephson Engineering C700S
Series Seven microphones provide unprecedented flexibility, as the directional pattern of the mic can be adjusted in use, during or after recording. The Josephson C700S microphones include omni/pressure and figure-8/gradient capsules, each with a discrete output. The signals can be recorded on separate tracks, so the pattern can be selected in mixdown. Pattern control is only one advantage of this technique. Applying different equalization or dynamic control to the capsule signals makes entirely different mic characteristics – for instance the warmth of a gradient mic used close up for vocals might be combined with the transparency of a pressure mic in the highs, by rolling off the high frequencies in the gradient signal and the lows in the pressure signal before they are combined.
The C700S microphone has three capsules; an additional side-facing figure-8 capsule is added to the two in the C700A. Any coincident stereo pickup can be derived from mixing these three signals together, and like the C700A, the signals can be recorded individually and all aspects of image width and pattern control may be adjusted in the mixdown. With the three capsule signals, any number of microphone outputs may be created, each one pointed anywhere in the plane around the microphone. The capsule assembly in the Series Seven is internally shock mounted, so that the mic may be attached directly to a stand through its yoke mount without any external accessories.
Josephson Engineering C700S's specificationsSpecifications common to C700 series

Pattern selection (C700S)
Omni: all W
Subcardioid/hypocardioid: W with X mixed in about –6 dB
Cardioid: equal amounts of W and X
Supercardioid/hypercardioid: X with W mixed in about –6 dB
Figure 8: all X
To reverse direction (unidirectional patterns favoring the rear of the mic) invert phase of the X signal
MS Stereo (C700S)
The M or mid signal is formed by mixing W and X. If the signals are at the same level, a cardioid pattern will result.
The Y signal is equivalent to the S or side signal in MS Stereo.
XY Stereo (C700S)
MS can be converted to left/right using the usual matrix, M+S=left, M-S=right. On a mixer, this is accomplished by
connecting the W and X signals to mixer inputs panned center. A Y-cord is needed to split the output of the Y
channel into two more mixer inputs. The first of these is panned left, the second is phase inverted and panned right.
Pattern is adjusted by controlling the ratio of W and X; raising the level of the Y and inverted-Y signals panned left
and right controls the width.
Surround formats (C700S)
The five primary surround channels can be derived using the XY stereo recipe above for the front, and making a
duplicate set (with the X signal inverted) for the rear.
Left front: W+X+Y
Center front: W+X
Right front: W+X-Y
Left rear: W-X+Y
Right rear: W-X-Y
The W signal has flat response to below 20 Hz and can be used alone, with suitable lowpass filtering, as the 0.1 or
LFE channel.
Side-facing channels may be derived using the W and Y signals just as forward-facing channels are made with W
and X.
