Schoeps CCM 2S Lg Omni Compact Microphone, Slight High Frequency Emphasis

Omnidirectional Compact Microphone, Sight High-Frequency Response, Lemo Disconnect Version

The CCM 2S exhibits a slight high-frequency emphasis for frontal sound incidence, with only a slight rolloff of high frequencies off axis and in the reverberant sound field.

The frequency response characteristic of the CCM 2S falls between that of the CCM 2 and the CCM 2XS, making this microphone suitable for a wide range of applications.

The CCM 2S has proven particularly useful in two- and three-microphone stereo arrays, where its placement near the reverberation radius of the sound field presents a sonically balanced pickup favored by many recording engineers. This model has become our most popular pressure transducer.

For spaced microphone (A/B) stereo recording and especially the Decca Tree method, KA 40 accessory spheres are recommended.

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 2S)

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

• omnidirectional pattern
