C-80

Uni-directional Condenser Microphone
Image of the following product: C-80

Overview

Uni-directional condenser microphone suitable for vocal/voice recording. Inheriting the microphone capsule used in the C-100 and using the same material as the C-800G for the diaphragm, this microphone inherits the essence of the predecessors. The dual diaphragm configuration suppresses sound characteristics changes with distance (proximity effect), enabling stable recording/distribution. "Noise Elimination Construction" succeeded from C-800G/C-100 prevents acoustic vibration resulting in low noise and clear sound.

Features

Excellent Sound Quality

Powerful and rich mid-low frequency range provides vocals and voice recordings with a core sound and presence.

Dual Diaphragm Configuration

Dual diaphragm configuration realizes stable recording/distribution by suppressing sound characteristics changes with distance (proximity effect).

Noise Elimination Construction

Two-part metallic body structure succeeded from C-800G/C-100 microphone prevents acoustic vibration resulting in low noise and clear sound.

Low-Cut Filter

Low-Cut filter switch helps eliminate low-frequency nose and proximity effect.

Pad Switch

An -10dB pad switch on the microphone provides added headroom and minimizes distortion caused by transient peaks.
