Description
CMH8A/CMH8B are condenser cardioid microphones with large
diaphragm of 1" in diameter; while CMH8C features convertible polar
patterns of cardioid, figure-of-8 and omni. Their tailored frequency
response make them ideal candidate for the recording of music program.
They are also suitable for general recording, broadcasting, stage
reinforcement, etc.
