C-800G
Vacuum Tube Condenser Mircophone
OUTLINE
Sony developed the C-800G
condenser microphone to be the
definitive vocal recording device
with the ability to provide full dynamic
range,yet reproduce delicate and
subtle nuances of sound,even at
high levels. Designed for the highest
possible sound reproduction quality,
this microphone is ideal for critical
vocal recording in recording studios
and film postproduction houses.
Utilizing a vacuum tube selected
for optimum sonic quality and an
innovative cooling system, the
C-800G microphone delivers a
warm, natural, rich and powerful
but delicate sound with low noise
and minimum distortion.
The superbly natural sound of the
C-800G microphone will meet the most
critical expectations of all professionals
working in the demanding fields of
recording and production. For engi-
neers seeking the ultimate in sound
quality, this microphone is the
premier choice.
FEATURES
The Ultimate in Sound Quality
The use of a rigorously selected vacuum
tube gives the C-800G microphone its
superb sonic quality,particularly at high
frequencies and with exceptionally low
noise levels. With a wide dynamic range
and the ability to resolve subtle sound
detail, the sonic quality is expressed
as rich, natural and sensitive with an
outstanding response to fast transients.
Critical Vocal Recordings
The C-800G microphone is particularly
suitable for critical vocal recording
in recording studios and film and video
postproduction houses, where sound
clarity and nuance are essential.
High Sensitivity
With a high sensitivity of -28dB/Pa, the
C-800G microphone can capture subtle
nuances at high frequencies with low
noise levels and minimum distortion.
Advanced Cooling System
The C-800G is the first microphone in the
world to incorporate a built-in thermoelectric cooling system employing a
semiconductor device, heat pipe and
heat sink, which greatly contribute to the
low noise and low distortion characteristics.
Noise Elimination Construction
The C-800G microphone incorporates a
two-part aluminum body that effectively
helps to prevent acoustic vibration from
reaching the microphone capsule,
resulting in clarity of reproduction.
Selectable Directivity
The C-800G provides electronically
selectable directivity, either omnidirectional or uni-directional, for
maximum flexibility and control
over pickup angle.
Optional AC Power Supply Unit
The AC-MC800G AC Power Supply Unit
is available as an optional accessory
to the C-800G microphone.
