These microphones represent the state of the art in miniature condenser microphones. They are based on the Audio Technica 831 microphone capsule and offer outstanding performance. With reasonable care, these microphones will produce a lifetime of accurate recordings and listening enjoyment. These microphones can be used alone with any recorder or mixer supplying a bias voltage of 1.5 to 10 volts at its mic input. In addition, the SP-CMC-1 can be used in conjunction with the optional extension cable (SP-SPSC-1) or any of our optional battery/filter modules for even greater flexibility and sound quality. The microphones themselves are housed in rugged satin black aluminum housings that protect the microphone capsules from mechanical damage and electronic interference. The microphones are wired together to a high quality gold plated stereo 1/8” phone jack. Covering the front of each microphone is a removable high quality black windscreen. For indoor recordings, the windscreens may be left off if desired. For outdoor recordings it is recommended that they be installed. The capsules are unmounted, so they may attached to any convenient surface in whatever manner you choose. Preparing to make a recording Before making your first important recording, it is suggested that you experiment with your new microphones a bit. Using the SP-CMC-1 directly into the recorder: If you are using the microphones alone, simply plug the SP-CMC-1 into your recorder or mixer’s microphone input jack. If necessary, switch on the power source at the mic input (see the manufacturer’s instructions for more details on this). Once the microphone is receiving power from your recorder, you are ready to proceed. Using the SP-CMC-1 in conjunction with the optional extension cable: If you are using the SP-SPSC-1 extension cable, plug the microphones into the female jack of the extension cable and plug the male end of the extension cable into your recorder, using the same procedure as described above. Using the SP-CMC-1 in conjunction with the optional battery modules:If you are using the microphones and/or the extension cable with any of the battery/filter modules, plug the microphones (or the male end of the extension cable if you are using it) into the input jack of the battery module. The microphones are now receiving power from the battery module (refer to the battery/filter module’s instructions for additional information regarding it’s use). Since the microphones will receive power anytime they are connected to the battery/filter module, be sure to disconnect them from the module when not in use. In most cases, when using the battery/filter modules, and you are going to be recording relatively loud sounds (rock concerts, full orchestras, close miked instruments, etc.), it is suggested that you use the “line in” jack of your recorder or mixer. This will produce excellent results with these types of sources. If you are going to record very quiet sounds, (nature sounds, human speech, chamber music, meetings, etc.), it is suggested that you use the microphone “in” jack of your recorder using the -20dB setting. This should produce excellent results with these types of sources. You may find it necessary to change to the different dB setting if you have to turn the recording level controls up near their maximum settings at the -20dB setting. Once you have plugged the output cable from the battery module into your recorder or mixer, you are ready to proceed. The next step is to determine microphone placement. The microphones, being very small, can be attached to just about any solid object and placed about 18-24” apart from each other. This will produce superb stereo recordings for playback through loudspeakers or headphones. You may now begin recording, following the directions provided by your recorder’s manufacturer. After a few minutes of recording, stop the recorder and listen to the recording you have just made. Adjust the microphone placement and recording levels as needed. Repeat this procedure until you are satisfied with the results. You are now ready to make that once-in-a-lifetime recording! Care and Maintenance Your Sound Professionals Cardioid microphones have been designed and manufactured to provide a lifetime of trouble-free service. When necessary, you may wipe the cables and exterior of the microphone capsules with a soft cloth moistened with clean water, removing excess moisture with a dry cloth. The front of the microphone capsules (underneath the windscreens) contain the miniature microphone element, and should not be moistened. Always keep the windscreens in place on the front of the microphone capsules when not in use.
