Schoeps CCM 2S Omni-Directional Compact Microphone with LEMO Disconnect

The SCHOEPS CCM 2S Omni-Directional Compact Microphone with LEMO Disconnect has an omni-directional pattern. It is a miniature true classic condenser microphone (no electret used). The capsule and amplifier form an inseparable unit in a single housing. The microphone includes a K5 LU 16 ™ Detachable LEMO to XLR-3M Adapter Cable with 3mm diameter, SGC Stand, and wood box.

It has a slight high frequency emphasis for universal use. It is used for essentially suitable pickup of low-frequency information and room sound. If directivity is not required (e.g., close miking), the omni CCM 2S + windscreen W 5 or W 5 D will offer low sensitivity to wind, popping, and handling noise for outdoor recording. It is an all-purpose capsule for music and speech and also for use at moderate distance (at or near the reverberation radius).

The MK 2S Microphone Capsule exhibits a slight high-frequency emphasis for frontal sound incidence, with only a slight roll-off of high frequencies off-axis and in the reverberant sound field. The frequency response characteristic of the CCM 2S falls between that of the CCM 2 and the CCM 3 Micrphone, making this microphone suitable for a wide range of applications.

The CCM 2S is particularly useful in 2- and 3-microphone stereo arrays, where its placement near the reverberation radius of the sound field presents a sonically balanced pickup favored by many recording engineers. It has become a popular pressure transducer.

The included K 5 LU Cable is an adapter cable from the LEMO output connector of the CCM _L Compact Condenser Microphones to XLR-3M.

The included Miniature Stand Mount with Swivel SGC is adjustable from 0° through 100° in either direction. The internal thread of the SGC screws onto any 3/8 ? rod (e.g., vertical support rods STR) or stand adapter. The SGC is an integral part of the HC miniature cable hanger and the TCg table stand.

For spaced microphone (A/B) stereo recording and especially the Decca Tree method, KA40 accessory spheres are recommended.
