The CC8 Stereo Set is designed to provide a perfectly balanced phantom center and deep spatial detail. Because every CC8 is factory-calibrated to a staggering +/- 0.5 dB sensitivity at 1 kHz, you are guaranteed a precision-matched experience. Whether used for X/Y, ORTF, or Spaced Pair configurations, this set offers the transient accuracy and low self-noise (16 dBA) required for high-resolution studio and broadcast work.
Product Description
Handbuilt Viennese Engineering:
At the heart of each microphone is the handmade OCC7 condenser capsule. Utilizing a 3-micron thick gold-coated PEN (Polyethylene Naphthalate) diaphragm, it is significantly more durable and heat-resistant than traditional Mylar versions. This ensures that the microphones maintain their sonic character even after years of heavy use on tour or in the studio.
Unrivaled Dynamic Range:
Massive SPL Handling: With the ability to handle up to 156 dB SPL without distortion, this stereo set is ideal for capturing loud sources like cymbals, snares, and brass sections while maintaining absolute clarity.
Transformerless Design: The sophisticated circuit design ensures a transparent, fast-reacting signal path that captures the natural snap and decay of instruments without added color.
Onboard Shaping: Each mic features a three-position pad (0, -10, -20 dB) and a two-stage high-pass filter (60 Hz, 120 Hz) to eliminate low-end rumble and optimize the input signal for your preamp.
The "Stereo Set" Advantage:
This bundle is more than just two microphones. It includes the SB1 Stereo Bar, a heavy-duty alignment tool that allows for precise distance and angle settings between the two mics. The set is housed in a slim metal briefcase with custom foam cutouts, ensuring that your precision tools are protected during travel and storage.
