Extremely light weight diaphragm, very sensitive to sound. Very small versions
available for hiding applications. High performance condenser microphones are
regarded as standard equipment of recording studios for extreme detail capturing.
Operates with power, such as phantom or battery.
Knowing your microphone
Superlux provides variety selection of microphones for professionals and amatures. To
know your microphone is the first step to successful result.
Type of transducer
Condenser
Condenser microphones work with power. Professional standard is 48VDC phantom
power. Some microphones work with lower voltage as low as 1.5VDC, such as battery
power model. CMH8CH/BH/AH work with 48VDC phantom only. Please make sure your
sound system provide adaquate power to the microphone.

About Frequency Response
Suitable for working at controlled environment, or for acoustic measurements.
Although people persuit flatness, but for none-professionals, it is a challenge to makes
it works as expectation.
Flat
Based on years of practical experience of pro users. There are curves to be build for
various applications, so that it is very simple to use the microphone for the purpose.
Limiting bandwidth, and emphasing are typical skill.
Popular curve response
Incorporating switchable filters to elliminates interference, such as sub-sonic filter to
cut air-conditioner and floor vibrations. And allows full flat when used in controlled
environment.
Variable response
Directivity
Select or set the directivity of your microphone for stereo recording, for various music
instrument, vocal, speech, and environmental sound pick-up. Pair of spaced omni for
A/B stereo, pair of near coincident cardioid for ORTF, and pair of coincident XY for
Blumlein stereo.
directivity Equal sensitivity to all direction, so that the microphone doesn’t need to
point toward the sound source. It’s low handling and wind noise are welcomed by news
gathering and music recording applications.
Omni
Picks up most signal on axis. Rejects side and picks up least to the back. Suitable for
live sound re-inforcement. Apparent proximity effect and most singer likes to take this
bass boost advantages which is not good for speech.
Equal sensitive to both ends, and rejects the sides. Good to noisy environment to reject
distant noise and low frequency. Also a good choice for stereo recordings, such as
Blumlein. Typical pressure gradient characteristic.
Double diaphragm structure with cardioid acoustic nature, CMH8CH can be set at
OMNI, Cardioid, and Figure-8 polar mode.

Distance to source
Mounting the microphone
Maintainence
Close miking or distant miking sound very differently. Vocal recording or live
performance practice close miking mostly. Suitable proximity effect is one desired
target, and lower feedback problem is another factor for live sound application.
While distant miking is common practice for recording, especially stereo pair
recording with large group of performers, such as orchestra or choir.
Distant miking generally picks up less bass section with pressure gradient type of
microphone (cardioid, figure-8, shotgun...) due to acoustic nature and lack of
proximity effects.
Rich bass with distant miking can be recorded with pressure type of microphone
(Omni), which performs the same frequency response with close or distant pick-up.
Pressure gradient microphone is very sensitive to vibration. Suitable shock mount for
high performance microphone is necessary for extreme low noise recording. Sturdy
stand can set the microphone excatly at the sweet spot and keep it there. Choose heavy
duty microphone stand for studio condenser microphone which weights much more
than handle microphone.
Superlux provides wide range of microphone stands for various demands. Big Foot
Willie is specially developed for large condenser microphones that able to support 2
large microphones with stereo bracket for single point stereo recording.
Extension foot on all the 'E' versions serve to mount heavy studio microphone in limit
space live sound applications.
Condenser microphone shall be kept in low humidity environment for best sound
performance. Store the condenser microphones in airconditioned room or dehumidifier
to keep away form moisture. Clean air is another important factor. Keep away from
smoking environment to avoid tar residuals.
