A compact and highly refined microphone system for the most critical single-point stereo recording applications..

Two gold-sputtered dual-diaphragms are arranged in a coincident pair. The microphone head can be rotated 45 degrees against the shaft and the upper capsule rotated 270 degrees against the lower to facilitate quick changeovers between M/S and X/Y techniques. Two LEDs mounted on each rotating capsule provide quick visual verification of the capsule angle from a distance. Switches on the microphone shaft select a bass cut and 10-dB preattenuation pad.

The supplied remote control allows completely noiseless selection among the nine polar patterns available for each capsule.

The C 426 B comb comes complete with a shock mount/stand adapter, foam windscreen, 66-ft. (20-m) connecting cable, stur-dy carrying case, and remote control.
