Product Description
The Schoeps CCM 2XS (formerly CCM 3) is designed for placement in a diffuse sound field, i.e. at distances in reverberant environments where the greater portion of arriving sound has already been reflected from various room surfaces. In such placement the integrated frequency response of this capsule is essentially flat; the on-axis high-frequency response elevation shown in the graph below is not heard as such. It is remarkable how well-focused a recording can be made with omnidirectional microphones at such distances, when the microphones have been.
Omnidirectional microphones can be considered sonically optimal if realized as true single-diaphragm systems – which is what Schoeps does. Their strengths include exceptionally linear frequency response with extended low-frequency response and a low noise floor (in the case of Schoeps - even as low as 11dB(A)). The various types of omni capsules differ in the amount of high-frequency boost, which compensates for the high-frequency roll-off in the diffuse field. Thus, omnidirectional microphones can be free- or diffuse-field equalized.
The capsule and amplifier of a CCM microphone are combined in one housing. K versions include a fixed cable with an XLR connector.
