Schoeps CCM 4XP Lg Cardioid Compact Microphone, Strong Attenuation of Proximity Effect

Cardioid Compact Microphone, Low-Frequency Rolloff, Lemo Disconnect Version

This cardioid microphone is designed for the very closest speech pickup, i.e. directly in front of the speaker's mouth.

Its low-frequency rolloff is compensated by proximity effect. Thus it has (up to the point of its high-frequency emphasis) a flat frequency response for the speaker's voice, while showing a rolloff at low frequencies for all sound that originates from a greater distance. As a result, background sounds are picked up less strongly than the person speaking.

This microphone can also be ordered as a modular Colette microphone, where the CMC 1 L amplifier is combined with an MK microphone capsule. (CMC 1 L + MK 4XP)

This variant allows the capsule to be exchanged and has advantages in terms of electrical properties in combination with digital wireless transmitters.

Features:

• cardioid pattern
• for pickup of speech or music at close range (under 10 cm)
• strong attenuation of low frequencies
• Preferred applications: close speech pickup
