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.
Complete alternative to the renowned CMC 6 amplifier
Can be used in place of the CMC 6 with no compromise
Electrical characteristics of the CMC 1 L are equal to, or even better than, those of the CMC 6 (flat frequency response, very low distortion, and constant output impedance across the audio frequency range)
Only 1 long (about a third the size of the CMC 6)
Weighs just 1 ounce (about 53% lighter than the CMC 6)
Fully compatible with all existing MK capsules and Colette active accessories such as the CUT 60 and RC tubes
Compatible with all accessories of the CCM series
Very high immunity from RF interference with the Schoeps RFI Shield
Optimized RF protection of the CMC 1 L makes it ideal for use with transmitters such as the Audio Limited A 10
Balanced, direct-coupled, Class-A output circuit
Output is filtered in the ultrasonic range to prevent interference, e.g. from camera autofocus
Includes 16.4 miniature LEMO to XLR 3-pin male adapter cable
Includes mic clip for easy attachment to a mic stand
Suspension mounts such as the Rycote INV-5 are available separately
Schoeps MK 5 Microphone Capsule (Matte Gray)
The matte gray MK 5 Microphone Capsule from Schoeps offers 2 selectable directional patterns, but uses only 1 membrane.
In its omnidirectional setting, the MK 5 Microphone Capsule is a true pressure transducer with smooth, extended low-frequency response, low sensitivity to most wind and breath noise, handling noise or mechanical vibration, and no proximity effect.
In its cardioid setting, the MK 5 Microphone Capsule retains its full directionality even at very low frequencies. The benefits of this design in purity and clarity of sound are immediately audible. Additionally, the MK 5 has a slight high-frequency emphasis.
The pattern selector should be definitely set to one position or the other in-between settings will yield undefined results.
Omni and cardioid patterns, mechanically switchable
Slight emphasis of the high frequencies
Broad range of applications
Preferred uses similar to those of the MK 2 or MK 2S and the MK 4
In the Cardioid Setting: For use with singing or speaking voices or most instruments, as a spot microphone, and for stereo recording with coincident, ORTF, or M/S microphone arrangements
In the Omni Setting: For recording instruments, singers, and more at relatively close range
Schoeps Solid Foam Teardrop Popscreen for Schoeps Colette Series Microphones (Gray)
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.
For moderate distances from the person speaking
Can also be used as a windscreen for pressure transducers
Negligible effect on sound quality
