Nady SCM-950 Wired Cardioid Studio Condenser Microphone

The Nady SCM Studio Microphones with many models to choose from, offer the superb sound of classic high-end,large-diaphragm studio & broadcast microphones at unparalleled affordability.

• The SCM Series microphones offer transformer-coupled balanced outputs & true condenser design (elements constantly biased by the pre-amp) for exceptionally low self noise & increased dynamic range, enhanced low and high end response with improved linearity across the frequency range and maximum SPL capacity.
• The SCM Series microphone SCM 950 features transformerless output and true condenser design for exceptionally low self noise and increased dynamic range, enhanced low and high end response with improved linearity across the frequency range and maximum SPL capacity.
• Ultra thin diaphragms provide the most accurate transient response possible. Offered with a choice of three housings and configurations. SCM 950 supplied with swivel base mic stand mounts. SCM 1000 features vintage look (with engravedmarkings) and dual diaphragm for the most accurate, uncompromised sound available in a studio microphone.

The SCM 950 can be used in live sound reinforcement and broadcasting and in studio or live recording. It must be powered by 48V phantom power (such as supplied by the optional Nady SMPS-1 phantom power supply or a mixing console with phantom powering), and amplified by a microphone pre-amp (such as built into a mixer, ora stand-alone unit). (Note: Make sure to set the pre-amp to the proper gain level too much gain may distort subsequent amplifiers and too little may result in a noisy signal)

The SCM 950 can be connected to your mixer or phantom power supply using a standard balanced 3-pin XLR microphone cable. Before connecting to a mixer directly, turn the channel to which you're connecting to its lowest gain setting.
