Schoeps Colette CMC 1 L Microphone Amplifiers and MK 2H Omni Capsules Stereo Set (Matte Gray)

Schoeps CMC 1 L Miniature Colette Microphone Amplifier with Mini LEMO Output (Matte Gray)

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

Includes mic clip for easy attachment to a mic stand

Suspension mounts such as the Rycote INV-5 are available separately

Schoeps MK 2H Microphone Capsule (Matched Pair, Matte Gray)

The matte gray MK 2H Microphone Capsule from Schoeps comes as a matched pair, and can be used indoors at medium recording distances (i.e. where direct sound energy is similar in amount to reflected sound energy) its overall response will be linear. Its extended frequency response and low noise make it appropriate for demanding applications.

The sound inlet of this capsule is narrower than that of our other pressure transducers, causing a slight, purely acoustic response elevation above 6 kHz. This reduces the high frequency loss for diffuse sound, thus helping to preserve natural sound quality.

This capsule is suitable for natural-sounding pickup of instruments and orchestras in spaces with well balanced reverberance.

This capsule is delivered with a hand signed Certificate from the factory. Matching is of frequency response and sensitivity within exceptionally low tolerances.

Comes in a pack of 2

Omnidirectional pattern

Mild high-frequency rise to compensate for losses at medium recording distance

Often chosen for spaced microphone stereo pickup and Decca Tree arrangements

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
