Josephson Engineering C700S

Description

The C700S is a single-point stereo microphone with infinitely variable pickup-pattern choices. It has three elements with separate outputs, allowing any variation of directionality to be selected at recording time or during mixdown: a 16mm omni element and two 26mm figure-8 capsules (positioned at right angles to one another).

See the C700A for an introduction to the multi-capsule concept.

With the additional figure-of-8 capsule, the C700S can record mid-side or XY stereo signals, as well as the 5 primary surround channels.

The capsule assembly is internally shock-mounted, negating the need for an external spider shockmount.

The microphone has a single 7-pin XLR output connector.
