About the CM50's sound - Sonic footprint of the CM50: This unique capsule creates a gradual "presence rise" in the microphone's on-axis frequency response. Yielding a rather substantial 8 dB on-axis peak at high frequencies. This affect can be discerned in the midrange and more increasingly so at higher frequencies. There is relatively no effect at low frequencies since the sphere is smaller than low frequency wavelengths. These effects enable the CM50 to be placed at considerably greater distances from the sound source than regular omni mics thus picking up more ambience in the lows and midrange while maintaining focus in the "Air" region and at higher frequencies. The result is a stunningly clear recording recording ordinarily not possible at these distances. The CM 50 can placed
far enough from the source that the distances to the nearest
and farthest instruments will be perceived exactly as an audience
experiences them, where the relative loudness, arrival time and
the clarity of the instruments will be in precise balance with
each other. |
