Austrian Audio have created a state-of-the-art microphone ready for modern recording applications yet with the timeless sonic character appreciated by all. The CC8 cardioid small-diaphragm true condenser microphone is hand-built in Vienna and created with professionals in mind.
Amazing Versatility and Value
Designed, engineered, and manufactured in Vienna, the City of Music, the CC8 delivers outstanding performance, flexibility, build quality, and value — but then, that’s what we expect from Austrian Audio. The CC8 boasts class-leading dynamic range, with a robust 156dB SPL handling and a 16dB equivalent noise level. Combined with its versatile cardioid polar pattern and excellent off-axis response, this means you can deploy it onstage on, let’s say, drum overheads — with high-gain guitar amp stacks on either side — and it will pick up the subtleties of the drummer’s cymbal work
Outstanding Build quality and Performance
As a class, small-diaphragm condenser mics are the precision, fine-tipped arrows in the recording engineer’s quiver. In contrast with large-diaphragm designs (which offer their own unique advantages), their low-mass capsules allow for the speed to optimally capture the sparkling detail in transient-rich sources such as acoustic guitar and cymbals. With its Austrian pedigree, the CC8 naturally not only excels in such applications, but also on relatively low-dynamic sources like classical ensembles and choirs
