FEATURES:
The CMC microphone amplifiers are not amplifiers in the classical sense. Their chief task is to convert the extremely high-impedance signal from the capsule to a very low-impedance one suitable for transmission through a microphone cable. The versions differ in their powering, connectors, output levels and surface finishes, but they all feature a Class-A output stage which has neither coupling condensers nor an output transformer. This leads to low source impedance (insensitivity to electrical interference), low distortion, and light weight. CMC +5 dB

CMC Linear
(Formerly marked with a long dash) Here, caution must be advised with respect to sensitivity to infrasonics. Since pressure transducers can pick up very low frequencies, ventilation systems in large rooms such as churches and concert halls can create a problem. Pressure-gradient transducers, on the other hand, have much less acoustic sensitivity to these very low frequencies, but are much more sensitive to vibration and to air currents. These can produce very high infrasonic signal levels, especially outdoors in wind. Although such signals are below the audible range, they can overload electronic circuitry and produce severe distortion. |
