Schoeps Mono-Set CMC 1 U with MK 41 Capsule

The CMC1 U Pre-Amplifier

The CMC 1 is Schoeps's, small Colette microphone amplifier, about one-third the size and 40% lighter than the CMC 6. It is compatible with all components of the Colette system and can be used in place of the CMC 6 without compromise, for all applications in which the size and weight of the microphone play a role. 

At SCHOEPS, “uncompromising miniaturization” means that the electrical characteristics of the CMC 1 are equal to, or even better than, those of the CMC 6. Through modern electronic design, these outstanding electrical properties have been achieved: 

  • High maximum SPL: 135 dB-SPL with the MK 4 (0.5% THD or less) 
  • Very low current consumption: 2.0 mA at 48 Volts 
  • Operates on 48 V or 12 V phantom power 
  • Very high immunity from RF interference with the SCHOEPS RFI Shield

The MK41 Hyper-Cardioid Capsule

The Schoeps MK41's directivity is highly independent of frequency, so that even sounds arriving off axis and reverberant sound are registered without coloration. Consequently, even distant placement of the capsule produces a very natural sound pickup. This is a real advantage over interference-tube “shotgun” microphones, whose directivity is very frequency-dependent – exceeding that of a supercardioid only at higher frequencies. Inter­ference-tube microphones are notoriously sensitive to their position in a room, where the shifting patterns of reflections cause cor­responding shifts in sound color. Thus the MK 41 are sur­prisingly effective, space-saving alternatives to shotgun microphones – and being small, they can often be placed closer to the sound source.
