What is a Condenser Mic?
Condenser microphones are the ideal choice for capturing vocals and acoustic instruments. They are the primary type of microphone used in recording studios and radio stations. The C-3 mic is capable of capturing much more detail than most dynamic microphones because of its wider and flatter frequency response. Another difference between condenser and dynamic mics is they contain active circuitry that requires phantom power (+48 V) for operation. You can power your C-3 using any phantom power equipped BEHRINGER XENYX mixer – plus enjoy the benefi ts of our state-of-the-art XENYX mic preamps.
Why the C-3?
The C-3 is an affordable, high-quality way to put this essential studio tool to work for you. It has three selectable pickup patterns: omnidirectional for capturing sound equally on all sides; cardioid for picking up your source signal while rejecting off-axis sounds; and figure-eight for capturing sound both behind and in front of the mic, but not all the way around. With its excellent transducer and gold-plated XLR output, the C-3 is very neutral-sounding and truly delivers on the promise of noise-free transmission.
But That’s Not All…
The C-3 condenser microphone is designed to be your go-to studio mic for many years to come. The tough, die-cast metal body can withstand the rigors of all those late-night recording marathons – and the included carrying case ensures your C-3 always travels in safety and style.
An excellent choice for both live and recording applications, the studio-grade C-3 condenser microphone is available at a price that will leave enough cash left over to secure other recording essentials. Check out the incredible BEHRINGER C-3 at a dealer near you.
Capture Every Minute Detail
The Behringer C3 Dual Diaphragm Studio Condenser Microphone facilitates the selection of a suitable setup from three patterns, namely cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure of eight. If you wish to perform on an open ground, the cardioid pattern caters to your requirements. The cardioid structure isolates sounds from the rear and the sides and is highly resistant to feedback. Ensure you go for the omnidirectional pattern when gearing up for a studio recording. A duet recording calls for application of the figure of eight pattern. Irrespective of the pattern you choose, the C3 has a low self-noise figure making it a must-have for professional artists who wish to reach out to a wide audience at a time, with clarity.
