Description

This Schoeps Colette set pairs the MK 5 switchable capsule with the CMC 1 L, a miniature microphone amplifier with a Lemo output connector. The MK 5 changes between omnidirectional and cardioid patterns with a mechanical sliding lever on the side of the capsule.

The CMC 1 L is about one-third the length and 53% lighter than the CMC 6, so the complete microphone suits applications where size and weight matter. It runs on 48 V or 12 V phantom power, draws very little current and has the Schoeps RFI Shield for high immunity from RF interference.

It is a true one-diaphragm system, a pure pressure transducer in the omni setting and a pressure gradient transducer in the cardioid setting. Schoeps calls it nearly an all-purpose capsule and recommends it for those starting out with the Colette series. In the cardioid setting it maintains its directivity even at the lowest frequencies.

Features

Switchable Omni and Cardioid
Pattern switching is purely mechanical, using a sliding lever on the side of the capsule.

One-Diaphragm Design
A true one-diaphragm system: a pressure transducer in the omni setting and a pressure gradient transducer in the cardioid setting.

Directivity at Low Frequencies
In the cardioid setting the MK 5 maintains its directivity even at the lowest frequencies.

Versatile First Capsule
Schoeps describes it as nearly an all-purpose capsule and suggests it for those starting out with the Colette series.

Miniature Lemo Amplifier
The CMC 1 L is the Lemo output version of the CMC 1 and is about one-third the length and 53% lighter than the CMC 6.

Phantom Power Flexibility
It operates on 48 V or 12 V phantom power with very low current consumption.

RF Shielding
The Schoeps RFI Shield gives very high immunity from RF interference.

Clean Class-A Output
The balanced, direct-coupled, class-A output is filtered in the ultrasonic range to prevent interference, for example from camera autofocus.

Colette Compatibility
The amplifier is compatible with all available MK capsules and active Colette accessories.
