Description

Set of 2 large diaphragm condenser microphones with multiple polar patterns (Omni, Figure8, Cardioid, SuperCardioid, etc.), based on the new dual capsule design CKR12, with a global patent for the dual handmade ceramic rings.

The multiple polar patterns can be controlled via the free POLARPILOT application (Android and iOS) by placing the Bluetooth adapter OCR8 on the back of the microphones, allowing 255-step adjustment that includes Figure8 and Omni, with control of the pad settings.

All settings are made in a digital environment, but the sound of the microphones remains analog. The innovation of dual output allows recording on 2 separate channels, with the ability to process the microphones after recording through special cables/adapters included in the package.

Technical Specifications:

  • Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz
  • Impedance: 275Ω (2x)
  • Sensitivity: 13mV/Pa
  • Max SPL: 148dBSPL/158dBSPL
  • Low Cut Filter: 40Hz, 80Hz, 160Hz
  • Adjustable Pad: -10dB, -20dB
  • Color: Silver
  • Weight: 360gr/Mic

The package also includes:

  • 2x microphone shock mounts (OCS8)
  • 2x Windscreen (OCW8)
  • 2x Mic Clips (OCH8)
  • 2x adapter cable Mini XLR 5pin to 3pin XLR (OCC8)
  • 1x Stereo bar (SB1)

Mode of Operation
Condenser (Large Diaphragm)

Mode of Operation

Condenser (Large Diaphragm)
Warm and full sound with emphasis on vocals. Mainly used in studios for vocals and solo instruments.
Directivity
Bidirectional (Figure-8)
Frequency
20 - 20000 Hz

Frequency

Indicates the frequency range that a microphone can capture and is expressed in Hertz (Hz). The more balanced the range, the more natural and clear the sound.

Usage examples:

  • 100 – 10,000 Hz to 200 – 12,000 Hz: Emphasis on speech intelligibility, with limited low and very high frequencies.
  • 50 – 14,000 Hz to 80 – 16,000 Hz: Balance of volume and clarity. Ideal for live performances and dynamic microphones.
  • 40 – 15,000 Hz to 50 – 18,000 Hz: Rich, natural vocal sound. Suitable for podcasts, radio, and streaming.
  • 20 – 18,000 Hz to 20 – 20,000 Hz: Full spectrum with high detail and "air". Ideal for studio recording.
  • Below 20 Hz & above 20,000 Hz: Extended technical range for specialized studio applications.
Impendance
275 ohm

Impendance

Indicates how "easily" the microphone transmits its signal to the equipment (mixer, sound card, amplifier). It is expressed in Ohms (Ω).

  • Low impedance (≤ 600 Ω): Stable signal, less noise, ideal for professional equipment and long cable runs.
  • Medium impedance (600 – 1,000 Ω): Good balance, common in live and general use.
  • High impedance (> 1,000 Ω): More sensitive to loss and noise, usually found in older or specialized equipment.
Sensitivity
13 mV/Pa

Sensitivity

The sensitivity of a microphone indicates how strong the signal it produces is when recording a sound. It is measured in mV/Pa or dBV/Pa.

  • High sensitivity: The microphone can capture very low sounds, but it may be more sensitive to ambient noise.
  • Low sensitivity: It records louder sound sources without distortion, but requires more amplification from the preamp.

In general, condenser microphones have higher sensitivity than dynamic ones.

Max SPL
148 dB

Max SPL

Max SPL (Maximum Sound Pressure Level) is the maximum sound pressure level (in dB) that a microphone can withstand before it starts to distort the sound.

  • High Max SPL (e.g., 140-160dB): Ideal for recording loud sources such as drums, amplified guitar, or live concerts.
  • Lower Max SPL (e.g., 120dB): Suitable for vocals and softer recordings.

The higher the Max SPL, the louder the sounds it can capture without distortion.
Connectivity
XLR
