The SP-CMC-2 mics from Sound Professionals are discreet mic capsules capable of being clipped to just about anything using a normal lapel mic clip. The mics terminate in a stereo 1/8″ mini-jack (the size of most headphone plugs.) This is important to connect to a recommended recorder device.
The Deluxe Audio Technica Cardioid microphone system utilizes a matched set of Audio Technica AT831 Cardioid microphones that come with permanently installed double shielded cables. The standard configuration comes with two microphone cables terminated together into a standard stereo gold plated 1/8″ (3.5mm) mini plug. The high SPL versions (with XLR phantom plugs or with the AT8532 power modules) come with each mic on a separate cable and connector. Custom cable lengths and configurations are available.
There are several ways to power these microphones. Each of these options provides the same sound quality, the only difference is the maximum sound pressure level (SPL) the mics can handle. 1) The microphones can be powered with normal “plug-in-power”, available on many portable recorders and camcorders. With this type of power, the mics will handle reasonable sound levels. 2) For strong sound levels, consistent with a loud amplified concerts, you can add a battery module for increased high SPL performance and dynamic range. 3) For strong sound levels, consistent with a loud amplified concerts when your recorder/mixer, etc. supplies phantom power, you can add the high SPL modified XLR connectors. Each mic has it’s own XLR connector and cable and microphones ordered this way will not work with “plug in power” or a standard battery module.
> Avoid clipping these (or any mic) to something that is libel to vibrate when the band starts playing.
>To use these mics at full potential will require a 9v battery box.
