Description

The SCHOEPS SuperCMIT 2 U is a digital shotgun microphone (AES42 standard) based on the analog CMIT 5. Its directivity goes well beyond that of conventional shotguns, even those with long interference tubes, and it suppresses diffuse sound such as street, wind, audience or room noise. It is suited to difficult film sound recordings and sports applications.

This version is supplied with the Mini-DA42, an AES42 powering box that powers the microphone and converts its signal to analog. Its Sub-D breakout cable gives access to AES3 and analog outputs, so the SuperCMIT can be used with devices that only offer analog or AES3 inputs.

The microphone gives you two channels: the SuperCMIT signal on channel 1 and the unprocessed CMIT signal on channel 2. Three buttons control the high-frequency emphasis and low-cut filters and the directivity presets.

Features

Digital AES42 Shotgun Microphone
The SuperCMIT is a digital microphone (AES42 standard), supported by many present-day mobile recorders as well as some mixing boards.

Increased Directivity
Directivity goes well beyond that of conventional shotguns, even those with long interference tubes. A functional principle based on two transducers and patented ILLUSONIC DSP algorithms achieves this.

Diffuse Sound Suppression
The DSP detects discrete and diffuse sound and uses this to suppress diffuse sound while focusing on discrete sound. This helps where street, wind, audience or room noise interferes with the recording.

Two Output Channels
Channel 1 carries the SuperCMIT signal and channel 2 carries the unprocessed CMIT signal.

Two Directivity Presets
Preset 1 gives a moderate increase of directivity and attenuates diffuse sound by 11 dB. Preset 2 attenuates diffuse sound by 15 dB and is reserved for special applications, as artifacts are possible in some cases.

High-Frequency Emphasis and Low-Cut
The two switchable filters are identical to those of the analog CMIT 5 U. High-frequency emphasis compensates the attenuation of wind shields, and the low-cut suppresses low-frequency wind and boom noises.

Extra Gain
The gain can be raised by +30 dB by double-clicking all three buttons.

Mini-DA42 Powering and Conversion
The Mini-DA42 powers the microphone and converts its output to analog. It lets you use the SuperCMIT with devices that only offer analog or AES3 inputs.

Analog and Digital Outputs
Through the included Sub-D breakout cable, the Mini-DA42 provides an AES3 output and two balanced analog outputs.
