Its bass response extends below 30 Hz, and its treble response above 18.5 kHz. Its dynamic range extends from the very quiet of a fine recording studio to the roar of a jet engine at close range. TetraMic's self-noise specification is excellent, but OctoMic improves on it by 3 dB. Like TetraMic, each OctoMic is individually aligned using a exceedingly effective measurement and calibration procedure. It is delivered with its own unique calibration file. This ensures that all OctoMics are perfectly matched to deliver excellent results. This unique feature allows OctoMic to retain its fine performance over time because it can be recalibrated as it ages. This critical feature is absent in other ambisonic microphones. (We recommend recalibrating OctoMic every two or three years, depending on your application.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606876643245-W4R40YJ6WWHONO9F4Y02/OM-265-cardioid2-log.jpg Products - Core Sound OctoMic™ 2nd-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1597776672455-B5DTPSLMD2G19UOYINYN/OM-System2.jpg Products - Core Sound OctoMic™ 2nd-order Ambisonic Microphone OctoMic comes with a VST or AAX plug-in to perform A- to B-format conversion. The plugin outputs standard 9-channel 2nd-order B-format. The output has been tested and confirmed to work with the most popular DAWs and the Facebook 360 Spatial Workstation. The plug-in operates on Windows and Mac PCs. Linux is also supported. Once in B-format, the recording can be decoded to any number and type of coincident microphones, each oriented in any desired direction and having any desired pickup pattern. OctoMic can function as the world's finest Blumlein array, and when used as an omni microphone, is equal to the world's best, including the DPA 4003 used for calibration. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606876751606-MY5VO4N48ZN3K9JZU76O/OM-System2.jpg Products -

Compare its performance to similar soundfield microphones selling for $3000 or more and you'll be quite amazed. Each and every TetraMic is individually calibrated and comes with its own calibration files. All other first-order ambisonic mic from major manufacturers use a single generic calibration file for all of their microphones. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606880233342-VFXVHH2DLTK5FAWGDSQD/TetraMic-small1a.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1601499872763-9BTUE78CUR0JC1KCUQGM/rycote6+Fons.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone In addition to modelling any number and type of coincidently positioned first-order microphones, you can model spaced microphone arrays (e.g., ORTF) by using more than one TetraMic. This process allows your audio projects to have unparalleled flexibility in post-production. How good a microphone is TetraMic? We believe TetraMic has the flattest and most extended fig-8 response of any commercially available microphone, bar none; so it's among the best Blumlein arrays in the world. Its free-field omni response is not quite as good as a Bruel & Kjaer 4133 1/2-inch measurement microphone; it's only as good as the wonderful DPA 4003 that we use for calibration -- i.e., sensational! However its diffuse-field response is better than the 4003. This combination of capabilities makes TetraMic one of the world's finest microphones. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606880351210-QDEYC4JVO3PL2JNDQBQH/rycote6%2BFons.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1601499992807-BP3FO00E1ENUPNK1AU3Q/IMG_0495.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone TetraMic is more than four microphone capsules on a tetrahedral mount. Building a TetraMic starts with a large batch of carefully assembled microphone capsules, pre-selected for sensitivity and frequency response. Each capsule is then exhaustively tested for sensitivity, frequency response, directivity pattern and other parameters. We select four well-matched capsules and confirm their compatibility. Then another round of exhaustive testing begins, this time for the complete tetrahedral assembly. All in all, each TetraMic undergoes more than seven hours of assembly, testing and calibration. Each TetraMic exits the test phase with its own calibration and correction files, used with VVEncode plug-in to ensure that each TetraMic is a fine example of one of the best sounding microphones in the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606880549994-BOH5KSTWKF6NKVSZF662/IMG_0495.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989773282-EB5MHWHN1YFEI8J9OIUO/tetramic3.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989775222-C52NY2VQDBTROLTO9X8I/tetramic2.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989795816-WW6RYHDZO6GCY4QPF16M/tetramic1.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989773282-EB5MHWHN1YFEI8J9OIUO/tetramic3.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989775222-C52NY2VQDBTROLTO9X8I/tetramic2.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989795816-WW6RYHDZO6GCY4QPF16M/tetramic1.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989773282-EB5MHWHN1YFEI8J9OIUO/tetramic3.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989775222-C52NY2VQDBTROLTO9X8I/tetramic2.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989795816-WW6RYHDZO6GCY4QPF16M/tetramic1.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989773282-EB5MHWHN1YFEI8J9OIUO/tetramic3.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989775222-C52NY2VQDBTROLTO9X8I/tetramic2.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1600989795816-WW6RYHDZO6GCY4QPF16M/tetramic1.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/b34366aa-7096-44ae-b070-a1876e54e685/PPAc+System+25percent.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone PPAc Transmitter, Receiver and PPAc Adapter Cable https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1615157931706-QHEFA832MWW4L2H3CYS6/Fixed-mount-cropped-320.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone TetraMic Fixed Mount https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1615157339613-ETDRP9AFZZPOTFM0J3XC/SM-Micro-rotated-cropped3-320.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone TetraMic Shock Mount https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1597778501729-EGLB37P5YPIIRBGZZHRM/foam-windscreen1.jpg Products - Core Sound TetraMic™ 1st-order Ambisonic Microphone The two-part foam wind screen fits over and under TetraMic's capsule head.

Core Sound Binaural Microphone Set Binaural microphones come in pairs. When one is placed in or near each ear they record exactly what your ears hear. When you play a binaural recording back over good quality headphones, you hear exactly what you heard at the time of the recording. The effect is quite startling -- besides preserving a high fidelity version of a performance, good quality binaural microphones preserve the ambience of the recording site. The positions of the performers, the reverberation and echo of the room, and the audience reaction are all captured precisely. Binaural recordings provide the most realistic recordings you've ever heard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606884966155-USVNYZRB5MBTRTI34YNX/CSB%2Bmic%2Bset%2B-%2Bno%2Bbattery%2Bbox.jpg Products - Core Sound Binaural Microphone Set https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604967655913-LW8HEFTJWT5EWLYYUYX3/CSB%2Bmic%2Bset%2Bwith%2Bswitchable%2Bbox.jpg Products - Core Sound Binaural Microphone Set CSB microphones have been sold to customers all over the world, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Singapore, Korea, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, England, Scotland, Norway, Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Serbia, South Africa and many others. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606885015080-9UFB9RR000X5EDFX6TYF/CSB%2Bmic%2Bset%2Bwith%2Bswitchable%2Bbox.jpg Products - Core Sound Binaural Microphone Set https://www.core-sound.com/products/high-end-binaural monthly 0.5 2021-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604612259787-W7AXX2LHBQY7NYO8SSMT/IMG11A.jpg Products - Core Sound High End Binaural™ Microphone Set (using DPA 4060/4061 capsules) - A Bit Of Binaural Microphone History Our very popular Core Sound Binaural (CSB) microphones set, first introduced in 1990, provides sonic performance unmatched at its entry-level price range. Using extensively modified and matched Matsushita microphone capsules, it offers amazing fidelity and very low distortion even when recording extremely loud sound sources. Over the years it's evolved into a rugged and reliable recording tool for professional and hobbyist tapers alike, a standard for more than fifteen years. The Matsushita capsules however, have their design limits, beyond which it doesn't make sense to modify them. To achieve the goal of a significantly lower self-noise and a more transparent high frequency response, almost everything in the capsule would have to be scrapped except the diaphragm! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606885943526-FEVJM70L8CBX7J912EXL/IMG11A.jpg Products - Core Sound High End Binaural™ Microphone Set (using DPA 4060/4061 capsules) https://www.core-sound.com/products/stealthy-cardioid monthly 0.5 2021-04-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1605053756428-0SH0RICHZBPPWUO8G054/CSB%2Bmic%2Bset%2Bwith%2Bswitchable%2Bbox.jpg Products - Core Sound Stealthy Cardioid Microphone Set™ Unlike our very popular Core Sound Binaural microphones, the Stealthy Cardioids are designed to *not* have a flat frequency response. Their slightly peaked high frequency response is ideal for recording from afar, and their gentle bass frequency roll-off is perfect for audience recordings from sound reinforcement systems in large halls. Their cardioid (heart-shaped) pickup pattern works wonders at eliminating much of the crowd noise that an omnidirectional microphone can't help but record. (These same features make the Stealthy Cardioids less suitable for binaural recording or for stereo recordings when a flat frequency response is necessary -- use our Binaurals in these situations. The Stealthy Cardioids are provided as a matched pair and provide a level of sonic performance and stealthiness unmatched in their price range. Their transient response is clean and fast, typical of condenser microphones. They provide a very pleasing frequency balance and the ability to record tremendously loud sounds with very low levels of distortion. When combined with portable DAT and Mini-Disk recorders (e.g., Sony TCD-D8, PCM-M1 and MZ-R900) they make a very small, rugged, easy-to-use and good sounding recording setup. Core Sound microphones are used by professional and for-pleasure tapers all over the world, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Australia, China, Japan, Singapore, Korea, Hong Kong, New Zealand, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, England, Scotland, Italy, Norway, Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Poland and others. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606886392478-JMHYPBXD1Q15SCXJBDU6/CSB%2Bmic%2Bset%2Bwith%2Bswitchable%2Bbox.jpg Products - Core Sound Stealthy Cardioid Microphone Set™ https://www.core-sound.com/products/low-cost-microphone monthly 0.5 2021-11-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604625245030-A4KIBHT9LWQRCPEMUQBX/Asset+1.png Products - Core Sound Low Cost Binaural Microphones and Low Cost Stealthy Cardioid Microphones™ Unlike our Binaural and Stealthy Cardioid microphone sets, the capsules used in the Low Cost mic sets are unmodified. While they don't provide the much lower distortion and much wider dynamic range of their more expensive siblings, they still provide exceptional performance for their price. The Low Cost Binaurals are omnidirectional and pick up sounds in all directions more or less equally. The Low Cost Stealthy Cardioids are directional and pick up sounds coming from the forward direction, while reducing the level of sounds coming from the sides and rear. If you had to choose just one set of Low Cost microphones, we strongly recommend the Low Cost Binaurals. In general, they will make better recordings under more different circumstances than the Low Cost Stealthy Cardioids. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606886629290-O7IBCSN2G2VXYSP5EPAP/Asset%2B1.png Products - Core Sound Low Cost Binaural Microphones and Low Cost Stealthy Cardioid Microphones™ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604625296408-39515L4Z8F8303T7RJEK/lcb-hd1.jpg Products - Core Sound Low Cost Binaural Microphones and Low Cost Stealthy Cardioid Microphones™ CSB microphones have been sold to customers all over the world, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Singapore, Korea, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, England, Scotland, Norway, Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Serbia, South Africa and many others. If you're looking to make great tapes at low cost, our Low Cost Binaural microphone and Low Cost Stealthy Cardioid microphone sets can't be beat. October 13, 2000: We're pleased to announce a new "Low Sensitivity" version of our Low Cost Binaural (LCB) microphone set, especially designed for folks who tape loud music with the Sony MZ-R37, -R55, -R70, -R90, -R91, -R700, -R750 and -R950 MD recorders. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606886805567-DMGUYXIN30JMO1VWXJ60/lcb-hd1.jpg Products - Core Sound Low Cost Binaural Microphones and Low Cost Stealthy Cardioid Microphones™ https://www.core-sound.com/products/microphones-for-musical-instruments monthly 0.5 2021-11-25 https://www.core-sound.com/products/jecklin-and-schneider-disk-mic-mounts monthly 0.5 2023-06-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1605054981378-VFX78QOFZF4KRX2FDKC0/Jecklin1%2B%25281%2529.jpg Products - MBHO Jecklin Disk and MBHO Schneider Disk Microphone Mounts - MBHO Jecklin Disk Stereo recordings use two (or more) microphones. There are many ways to position two microphones to get a realistic stereo image. Entire books have been written about the many different mic positioning techniques for stereo. One of the more recent developments is Juerg Jecklin's "Optimal Stereo Signal" technique. This technique uses two omnidirectional microphones spaced 160mm (approximately 6 inches) apart, separated by an acoustically absorbent flat disc that is 300mm (approximately 12 inches) across. This microphone mount has come to be called the "Jecklin Disk." You can find Juerg Jecklin's german-language tech paper on the Jecklin Disk here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606887286892-4ZJUPCXQH9XRDZZV6MDJ/Jecklin1+%281%29.jpg Products - MBHO Jecklin Disk and MBHO Schneider Disk Microphone Mounts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1605055407130-N3L467CFFPYQT4U5BBRH/Schneider2.jpg Products - MBHO Jecklin Disk and MBHO Schneider Disk Microphone Mounts - MBHO Schneider Disk A variant on the Jecklin Disk is the Schneider Disk. The Schneider Disk adds a foam covered sphere to the center of the disk, better mimicing the human head's absorption characteristics. How do you choose between them? Both provide excellent stereo imaging when played back over speakers. The Schneider Disk provides a slightly better approximation of a binaural recording when played back over headphones. We recommend the Schneider Disk for chamber groups, rock bands and small choirs. We recommend the Jecklin Disk for larger orchestra and choirs. The microphone clips on both Disks are designed to accept microphones having a 21mm diameter. They will accept slightly larger microphones too. CSB microphones and accessories have been sold to customers all over the world, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Singapore, Korea, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, England, Scotland, Norway, Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Serbia, South Africa and many others. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606887382035-RO4CEK8T97CQ01IWPYYL/Schneider2.jpg Products - MBHO Jecklin Disk and MBHO Schneider Disk Microphone Mounts https://www.core-sound.com/products/headline monthly 0.5 2021-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604712167938-A3UIM3CEQ7B8HUTNQ7HK/HeadLine1.jpg Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604967106157-CLB2QQ3TLBU586VGLDOB/headline_top_showingjumpers.jpg Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604713041082-VUCAC7FGF1982RKTLAQW/D-A_freq_response_line.gif Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector HeadLine's frequency response is uncommonly flat and extended. With a -0.1 dBFS 24-bit/44.1 KS/s digital signal driving, here's HeadLine's Line-level output's frequency response. Note the very expanded vertical scale on this graph. If we didn't expand the scale you would never see the roll-off. The frequency response is extremely flat, typically varying less than plus-or-minus one-tenth of a dB. (We've separated the two channels by a fraction of a dB so that you can see both of them.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606887591564-40EF76I5UV9C06K672FD/D-A_freq_response_line.gif Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604713593799-BLYXUW4VGL4VC7G3DNG6/D-A_fft_line.gif Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector HeadLine's THD+N performance is also uncommonly good. Being driven by a -0.1 dBFS 24-bit/44.1 KS/s digital signal to an analog output level of 8 dBu (around 2 Volts RMS -- a very loud Line level), the noise baseline is typically more than 140 dB down from the signal, and the highest harmonic is more than 105 dB below the signal. That's .00055%! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606887632299-S4RCI8HMS09TK2R0DJQR/D-A_fft_line.gif Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604713648983-5CNSJ1NFVIA9VTSY72AO/D-A_crosstalk_line.gif Products - Core Sound HeadLine™ Portable DAC, Headphone Amplifier and Source Selector Channel separation is typically more than 115 dB at 1 KHz and more than 85 dB at 20 KHz.

Unlike all other battery-powered, two-channel phantom power supplies that can deliver only two to four milliamps per channel, 2Phant can power every microphone on the market that specifies P48 phantom power including some of the hardest-to-power microphones from Earthworks, Schoeps, AKG, CAD Equitek, Shure KSM-series and Neumann. 2Phant is perfect for your critical 24-bit digital recordings. It is one of the quietest portable phantom power supplies available, with a noise floor of -157 dBFS (typical) and never higher than -150 dBFS. 2Phant is incredibly power efficient. It operates at full load for more than five hours on a single pair of alkaline nine-Volt "transistor radio" batteries. If you need longer continuous operating times, the batteries can be "hot-swapped" one at a time without losing power, allowing essentially unlimited continuous operation. Or you can power 2Phant with an external AC or battery supply. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606887840750-WFE883QDC2SMIQ2IQH98/2phant3big.jpg Products - Core Sound 2Phant™ Portable Dual Phantom Power Supply https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1604968068014-IHVP5MW25CYMLMTLEI7V/2phantfinal2big.jpg Products - Core Sound 2Phant™ Portable Dual Phantom Power Supply No other portable phantom power supply keeps you as informed about the charge state of its batteries. 2Phant has a battery-condition LED that flashes green when supply voltage is normal, yellow when a battery is approaching minimum voltage, and red when it's time to change a battery. 2Phant is rugged and uses professional-quality parts. It has two industry-standard locking XLR-F inputs, two XLR-M outputs, and is housed in a black anodized aluminum case. 2Phant is easy to use. Power is controlled by a recessed On/Off slide switch. The batteries are very accessible and can be inserted and removed without the bother of easy-to-lose cover panels and fasteners. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606887896866-E2EDCW548PLIVWQPEUZS/2phantfinal2big.jpg Products - Core Sound 2Phant™ Portable Dual Phantom Power Supply https://www.core-sound.com/products/7-pin monthly 0.5 2021-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1605058711168-I5W3A8N5722N1HI8S6XD/7-pin%2Bto%2BCoax%2Bcable.jpg Products - 7-pin Interface Cables for Sony Portable DAT Decks All Core Sound digital audio cables use the highest quality Teflon-jacketed, impedance controlled coaxial cable.

Knowledgable tapers would then switch the mics to feed the line inputs, which can typically accept a signal 26 dB higher. However, some devices (e.g., video camcorders and lower priced analog cassette recorders) don't have line inputs. For these devices, our attenuator cables are worthwhile accessories. And if you want to use a bass roll-off filter with your microphones , you can't use the Line input because its impedance is too high for the filter, so you should again be using an attenuator cable with the Mic input. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0d4e7fc5a9337e5d870aa6/1606888584593-YZV075MF5HIZAZX2R77I/Attenuator+cable.jpg Products -
