ACEMIC C-300

Cardioid Condenser Microphone for Instruments

The ACEMIC C300 is a cardioid condenser microphone designed for recording musical instruments, engineered to provide precise and detailed sound capture in recording studios, home recording environments and live performances. Its compact pencil-style design and condenser capsule make it particularly suitable for close-miking acoustic instruments and detailed sound sources.

The C-300 is a versatile solution for drums, cymbals, acoustic guitar and piano, but can also be used for other musical instruments, ensembles and a variety of audio recording applications. Its cardioid polar pattern focuses sound pickup primarily on the source positioned in front of the microphone, helping to reduce the pickup of sounds coming from the sides and rear.

With a 50 Hz–18 kHz frequency response, this microphone is designed to capture a wide range of frequencies, making it suitable for recording acoustic instruments and percussion.

The 130 dB maximum SPL allows the microphone to handle relatively high sound pressure levels, making it suitable for applications such as recording drums and cymbals.

The -45 dB ±3 dB sensitivity and 72 dB signal-to-noise ratio complete the microphone's technical specifications, providing a practical solution for a variety of recording setups.
Cardioid Polar Pattern

The cardioid pickup pattern allows the microphone to focus sound capture on the source positioned in front of it, while reducing sensitivity to sounds coming from the rear.

This characteristic is particularly useful when recording instruments, especially when a more focused sound capture and greater control over the surrounding environment are required.

The ACEMIC C-300 can be used in recording studios, home studios and live musical performances. Its robust construction and gold-plated XLR connectors are designed to provide reliable performance over time.

The microphone requires 48V Phantom Power, which is commonly available on audio interfaces, mixers and microphone preamps equipped with phantom power.
