Austrian Audio CC8 Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone Overview: Small diaphragm condenser microphone for natural recordings Extremely linear frequency response Nearly optimal directivity Fast response for authentic transients Very low equivalent noise level of only 16dbA Exceptionally high level stability 2-stage analog high-pass filter switchable @60;120Hz/12dB per octave 2-stage pad with -0;-10;-20dB attenuation Strict final control allows stereo applications with non-matched microphones Incl. case, bracket, windscreen and thread adapter Handmade OCC7 capsule Made in Austria Exemplary cardioid with effective diffuse field suppression The Austrian Audio CC8 is a modern, technically flawlessly designed condenser microphone with Austrian Audio's handmade OCC7 small diaphragm capsule. Due to its excellent values, it is particularly suitable for studio applications with high demands on signal and frequency fidelity. It also impresses with a low equivalent noise level and an extraordinary level stability thanks to a -20dB pad of up to 146dB. As a result, the CC8 can be used equally uncritically for direct miking of brass instruments as well as for ambience recordings with very low sound pressure levels. Its accurate transient imaging also qualifies it for use with all types of natural instruments such as pianos, grand pianos, violins, and even more exotic instruments whose tonal characteristics are difficult to reproduce. Finally, the meticulous hand-manufacturing and rigorous final inspection make it possible to use in stereo or atmos setups without having to purchase specially matched microphones. Especially for complex main microphones like the Decca Triangle, 4.0 or AB+XY this makes the CC8 even more interesting. There is really nothing to add to the frequency diagram.
