Overview:
Microphone Amplifier CMC 6
The CMC 6 is designed for standard 48- and 12-Volt phantom powering. Its circuitry recognizes the supply voltage and adjusts itself automatically. Its performance characteristics remain essentially the same either way; mainly, the difference is that the current drawn at 12 Volts is greater than at 48 Volts. However, the 12-Volt mode consumes less power and might be preferred for battery-powered recording.
-flat frequency response
-extremely low noise and distortion
-balanced, very low-impedance output
-can be used with very long cables
-well-protected against RFI
-for use with 12- or 48-Volt phantom powering
Microphone Amplifier CMC 5
The CMC 5 is designed exclusively for 48-Volt phantom powering. Although it has a more modern successor (the CMC 6), some people place a special value on its discrete circuitry, or require an exact match for an existing microphone amplifier of this same type.
The microphone amplifier provides the electrostatic charge which the capsule requires in order to produce a signal. Since only a miniscule amount of current is contained in this signal, amplification of the current is required. To avoid interference to the signal on the way from the microphone to the input of the mixer or preamp, the signal is conveyed at low impedance and in balanced form. CMC 5 amplifiers offer a balanced, transformerless, direct-coupled Class A output stage with low impedance, low distortion, and high freedom from interference.
