Schoeps CMC6U w/ MK8 - Mono

Modular "Colette" microphones consist of the combination of two basic units as shown - a microphone capsule and amplifier.

The number of possible combinations is quite large - there are 20 types of microphone capsule and 6 basic types of amplifier. With very few exceptions, any type of capsule can be used with any type of amplifier. This feature of the Colette series is indicated by the above icon.

This capsule type is a true dipole (bidirectional) transducer, operating with a single diaphragm. Its main axis is at a right angle to the capsule, and is marked at 0 and 180 with a red and a black dot respectively.

MK 8 CAPSULE:

• pure pressure-gradient transducer

• figure-8 pattern with near-ideal consistency across the frequency range

• side-addressed (pickup perpendicular to the microphone body)

• optimal for use in M/S and Blumlein stereo recording
