Popular among professional audio engineers, the matte gray Schoeps Colette CMC 1 L Microphone Amplifier and MK 2H Omni Capsule Set is an ultracompact, space-saving Colette Series modular microphone bundle that includes the CMC 1 L (mini LEMO output) miniature microphone amplifier, MK 2H omnidirectional mic capsule, K 5 LU LEMO to XLR 3-pin male cable, SGC miniature stand mount with swivel, B 5 solid-foam popscreen, and a premium case for secure transport and storage.
The MK 2H capsule's mild, high-frequency-response elevation above 6 kHz (at 0°) compensates for high-frequency losses caused by a slightly increased, diffuse field amount at medium recording distances. Often described as balanced and round, the MK 2H is ideal for A/B stereophony and Decca Tree—together with the optional KA 40 sphere accessory.
Thanks to the inclusion of the ultracompact CMC 1 L amplifier, this bundle serves as a lighter and smaller alternative to the acclaimed CMC 6 amplifier, without compromising sonic performance.
The matte gray Schoeps CMC 1 L is a miniature Colette Series microphone amplifier offering uncompromising high fidelity in a lightweight and ultracompact form factor for studio recording, broadcast, and live stage applications. Presented as an alternative to the renowned Schoeps CMC 6 amplifier, the CMC 1 L is compatible with all existing MK mic capsules and Colette active accessories (all available separately).
It features a balanced mini LEMO output, compliance with 12V or 48V phantom power, and low current consumption. Its Schoeps RFI Shield provides high immunity from RF interference for a clean, low-noise signal. The CMC 1 L supports the high maximum SPLs tolerated by the various MK mic capsules (available separately). A stand adapter and a 16.4' mini LEMO to XLR 3-pin male adapter cable are supplied with the CMC 1 L.
The Schoeps MK2HV is part of the Colette series of modular capsules designed for use with the CMC preamplifiers. A favorite for recording classical performances, the capsule is designed primarily for ambiance capturing at a greater distance from the sound source. The capsule features an omni-directional pick up pattern which provides a generous response area at the main and off-axis sections of the capsule. The wide linear frequency response accurately reproduces audio signal in rich detail.
This gray Solid Foam Teardrop Popscreen from Schoeps is an acoustic foam close-speech popscreen intended for use with Schoeps Colette Series microphones, but compatible with other microphone capsules as well. It provides sufficient protection at normal speaking distances for cardioids and other directional capsules, especially when speech capsules are used. With omnidirectional capsules, it may even be used outdoors in light wind. This popscreen has minimal effect on sound quality.
