Recording &
Broadcast
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 remote control supplied 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) con-
necting cable, sturdy carrying case and remote control.
