Brief Description

This large-diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed on the basis

 

of feedback from sound engineers who have used the C 12, C 12A, C 414 EB

and C 414 B-ULS microphones in recording studios around the world for years. Using hand-selected state-of-the-art, reliable components as well as advanced manufacturing processes, the C 3000 meets the highest professional standards and will withstand severe handling in the recording studio for many years.

The electronic circuitry of the microphone has been redesigned to achieve maximum dynamic range and a flat frequency response. Low self-noise and high headroom add up to a dynamic range of 136 dB (A-weighted).

The transducer element uses advanced backplate technology and a diaphragm that is gold-sputtered on one side only to prevent local shorting to the back electrode even at extremely high sound pressure levels.

The all-metal body ensures efficient rejection of RF interference so you can use the microphone near transmitter stations, along with wireless microphones or other communications equipment.
