Description

This matched pair of condenser microphone capsules offers mechanically switchable omnidirectional and cardioid polar patterns through a single-membrane design. Its broad versatility suits vocal, instrument, spot, and stereo recording applications, including coincident, ORTF, and M/S arrangements.

The omnidirectional setting provides extended low-frequency response, no proximity effect, and low sensitivity to wind, breath, handling noise, and mechanical vibration. The cardioid setting maintains directionality at very low frequencies, while a slight high-frequency emphasis adds clarity in either mode. The pair is factory matched for frequency response and sensitivity and includes a hand-signed certificate.

Features

Mechanically Switchable Patterns
Select omnidirectional or cardioid operation using the capsule's mechanical pattern control.

Single-Membrane Design
Both polar patterns operate through one membrane while maintaining response through the upper audible frequencies.

True Omnidirectional Response
The pressure-transducer setting delivers smooth, extended bass response without proximity effect.

Consistent Cardioid Directionality
The cardioid setting preserves directional performance even at very low frequencies.

Versatile Recording Applications
Suitable for voices, instruments, spot recording, and coincident, ORTF, or M/S stereo configurations.

Reduced Unwanted Noise
The omnidirectional setting offers low sensitivity to wind, breath, handling noise, and mechanical vibration.

Factory-Matched Pair
The two capsules are matched for frequency response and sensitivity and supplied with a hand-signed certificate.

Subtle High-Frequency Emphasis
A slight upper-frequency lift supports a clear, detailed sound.
