Studio Projects C4 Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

Studio Projects C4 Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone The C4 is a small diaphragm condenser microphone set that provides excellent pickup of on-axis sources while attenuating extraneous sound occurring from around and behind the microphone. It is ideal for close miking of individual instruments where bleed from other nearby instruments or sound is undesirable. Besides, as an omni-directional (pressure) microphone, the C4 offers a warm tonal response and is recommended especially for close miking in favorable acoustical environments. The very little off axis coloration due to the inherent physical properties of pressure capsules combined with the low self-noise of the mic amplifier makes the C4 omni an excellent ambience mic - especially in pairs. In a good room, a pair of omni’s can provide a vibrant and live feel to recordings, which is not achievable through the use of directional microphones. The C4 features interchangeable capsules, switchable -10dB pad/high pass filter and a linear low-noise, solid state amplifier body. Its modularity makes it a useful multi-purpose tool intended for all-around use on stage, on location, and in studios of all calibers. As cardioids (pressure gradient) microphones, the C4s make excellent stereo pairs for coincident and near-coincident miking techniques, such as X-Y and ORTF. They are also quite useful on a drum kit as overheads and on toms. The C4 microphones are recommended for use in spaced pair omni, Jeckline disc (OSS), piano, guitar, drum overheads, and room miking. It is available in pairs with mic clips, windscreens and case. Moreover, the C4 is loaded with these salient features:Studio Quality Stereo Pair Microphone System Modular Design Interchangeable Capsules (Omni, Cardioid, Hyper-Cardioid) Switchable -10dB pad/ High Pass Filter Transformerless Output Rugged Construction
