About Schoeps CMC 1 U

Before you delve into the world of professional audio recording, consider the CMC 1 U 12-48 Volt Phantom Power Microphone Miniature Amplifier. This innovative and high-quality device is specifically designed for compatibility with Schoeps Colette series capsules, ensuring optimal performance for your audio recording needs.

Significantly smaller and lighter than its predecessor, the CMC 6, the CMC 1 U offers uncompromising miniaturization without sacrificing any of the electrical characteristics. In fact, through modern electronic design, the CMC 1 U's electrical properties meet or even surpass those of the CMC 6. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where the size and weight of the microphone are crucial factors.

The CMC 1 U is not just a reliable and durable microphone amplifier, but it also boasts maximum RFI rejection. This means it can operate seamlessly in noisy environments, effectively rejecting radio frequency interference to deliver high-quality audio recordings.

The CMC 1 U also offers practical alignment of vertical capsules, making it suitable for use in many suspensions like the OSIX that have a rigid orientation of the XLR connector and the amplifier. This feature ensures that the microphone cannot be rotated arbitrarily in such a suspension, providing stability and consistency in your audio recording setup.

Whether you're using axially aligned capsules like the MK 4 or a vertical capsule like the MK 8, the CMC 1 U ensures that your capsules are always perfectly aligned for the best audio recording experience.

In conclusion, the CMC 1 U 12-48 Volt Phantom Power Microphone Miniature Amplifier is a professional, reliable, and innovative solution for all your audio recording needs.

Schoeps CMC 1 U Features

  • 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
  • Complete alternative to the renowned CMC 6
  • Fully compatible with all existing MK capsules and Colette active accessories such as the CUT 60 and RC tubes
  • Suitable mounting accessories are already available, such as the CINELA E-OSIX-CMC1U and the Rycote INV-6 elastic suspensions
