Microphones

This microphone was created to serve for better functioning in discussions and music recordings. Due to its light weight and flexibility it can be installed in every place. The microphone comes from the class of X/Y stereo microphones. In contrast to other X/Y microphones, consisting of one rotating capsule and one fixed capsule, the specific form of CMXY 4V – 2 cardioids with lateral pickup – allows to adjust the angle between microphones without damaging the stereo axis.

The three sections of the microphone are combined to make it compact and presuppose better functioning. Two cardioid microphones constitute the first section. The interconnected gears of the second section are mounted together and can be turned in opposite directions. Moreover, thanks to the gears, the microphone can be installed in any direction. The miniature 5-Pin Binder output connector constitutes the base of the microphone.

The stereo possibilities of CMXY 4V are at a high level. Sound quality does not deteriorate due to the balanced outputs at a low impedance of 90 Ohms. Electromagnetism does not influence the functioning of the microphone because of the CMXY 4V insensitivity to the waves. Maximum sound pressure level of the microphone is 132 dB SPL, which positively effects the sound quality.

The technical characteristics of CMXY 4V correspond to the professional standards and requirements. Sound quality, flexibility and easiness of installation attract users and specialists.

And the microphones on both sets are pretty good. However, Sagem SH1 does a better job in that.

It is almost completely unnoticeable with its tiny microphone and small lens. It can record high quality video with sound on a SD card, which means that you are limited to the size of your flash card, since we do not know how much do recordings take this is not a pleasant limitation.

With karaoke bars becoming popular and meetings and summits that need good acoustic equipment, microphones became an integral part of our life. SHURE Company proposed the solution of the problem. Their 55SH Series II Vocal & Speech Microphone suits for every situation: during public meetings at open places and home performances.
The thorough design of the microphone, its dimensions and weight are appropriate for everyday use. The cardioids and shock-mounted cartridge serve to minimize the sound pickup, which consequently leads to the fact that microphones can be used near loudspeakers. Such combination does not deteriorate the sound quality; on the contrary, it prevents the appearance of feedback acoustic effects.
The specific form of the microphone and type of its parts connection allow turning the55SH in any direction you need. This feature admits using the microphone in every place you want to.
Low-impedance balanced output of the microphone is designed to be connected with the inputs to 300 Ohms.
The chrome-plated die casting preserves the microphone from external damages. The design is similar to other microphones of the present series, but it is smaller, and, consequently, it is more comfortable in use and is easily removed and displaced.
However, weak points there are as well. It is quite expensive for the present class of microphones, but the technical possibilities and stylish design of the 55SH justify its price.

Incorporated microphone and an auto-focus function offer the security of the successful video conversations.

If you need a microphone to serve you in every place and at different sound conditions you have to choose one that corresponds to your needs. KFM 360 is a quite compact system where the principal elements are two pressure transducers, which are frequently used for stereophonic recording even when the other units are out of system.
The Microphone System KFM 360 consists of the following elements:
- the KFM 360 Microphone
- two Figure-8 microphones
- the DSP-4 KFM 360 Processor
Two Figure-8 microphones are connected with the transducers by means of clamps with connectors and are built into the sphere. Such arrangement provides better surround capability. These two microphones have another aim as well: due to them four surround channels appear by means of two M-S matrices. The channels are angled to the sides at higher frequencies. Changing the direction of microphones influences the sound quality. Such flexibility allows adaptation to different acoustical conditions in the place of recording.
Unlike its predecessor KFM 6 with the recording angle 90°, the angle of KFM 360 microphone is approximately 120°, which allows closer miking.
The processor contains the high-frequency boost. If KFM 360 is used without it, the boost has to be provided by other means. Analog and digital inputs and outputs are parts of the processor.
The units of the systems are combined to provide better sound quality in different acoustical situations. Its compactness allows using it in various places. It is the best variant for usage at conferences.
