CL8a
Description
The Samson CL8a is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone well suited for home, project, and pro-level studios alike. This mic offers selectable polar patterns, so you can choose among omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8 configurations.
The design provides dual gold-sputtered capsules, each measuring 1.1" in diameter and 4 microns in thickness. This gives you a balanced, yet lush sound. With a wide frequency response measuring 20 Hz to 20 kHz, the CL8a can help you capture a panoply of instruments and vocals, and thanks to the high 147 dB SPL, you can record loud instruments as well.
The CL8a provides a 10 dB pad for better miking drums without distortion. A 12 dB/octave high-pass filter can be switched on at 100 Hz to reduce rumble and wind noise. The mic requires phantom power to operate and can accept between 36 and 52V. The capsule offers an internal shockmount for both protection and isolation from any noise caused by vibrations.
