The "CM33" condenser miniature microphones use FET technology with a transformerless microphone circuit.
The CM33 Model Features
- Exceptionally low inherent self-noise and high overload capability
- Reliable transformerless fet circuit design
- Exceptionally clear sound reproduction free of coloration
-
Cardioid pickup pattern effectively eliminates feedback, providing
excellent pickup of on-axis sources while attenuating extraneous sound
occurring from around and behind the mic.
- Very
smooth frequency curves, matching 0° sound incidence. Signals within a
pick-up angle of ± 135° are reproduced without coloration.
The microphone has a balanced output. The 3-pin gold-plated XLR connector has the following pin assignments:
Pin 1: 0 ground
Pin 2: Modulation (+phase)
Pin 3: Modulation (-phase)
Additional Information
Each set of CM33 microphones is carefully matched by hand in our state
of the art anechoic chamber. Therefore, the CM33 is ideal for stereo
recording when coincident and near-coincident miking techniques such as
X-Y and ORTF are utilized.
The CM33 is designed for studio use but is well suited for live
applications. Engineered for instrument recording, the CM33 is an
excellent choice when recording drum overheads, acoustic guitar, piano,
strings and all other types of acoustic instruments.
In addition, the CM33 performs exceptionally well on vocals.
Especially in situations where a vocal choir needs to be captured in
stereophonic sound.
It's discrete size and design allows for effective and subtle
positioning, which is crucial when close miking. The CM33 also features
a switchable low frequency roll-off and -10 dB input attenuation.
The CM33 is available in stereo hand-matched pairs. Each set is housed
in a beautifully handcrafted cherry/oak boxes. Also included with each
set are mic clips and windscreens.
Special custom shockmounts and omni capsules are available as additional accessories.
The CM33 is Well Suited for Studio or Live Applications
The CM33 Matched Pair is the perfect tool for close miking when
capturing acoustic instruments such as piano, strings, drum overheads
or acoustic guitar where spatial 2 channel, stereo operation is
desired.
Naturally the CM33 can be used by itself to capture single sources as
well. Off axis coloration is kept at a minimum due to the properties
inherent in a pressure gradient capsule.
Whether its a string ensemble, acoustic guitar, piano or drum overheads
you're recording, Berliner Microphones offers an excellent choice for
capturing the performance accurately and uncolored with the CM33
matched pair. The CM33 Model Features
