The updated version of the C1000 S multipurpose small-diaphragm condenser microphone is extremely popular for its versatility. It is suitable for recording and live-sound applications as well as for ENG/EFP and video productions. Its gold sputtered capsule housing makes the microphone extremely rugged against humidity. If no phantom power is available, the C1000 S can be powered by two standard AA batteries for up to 120 hours. More versatile than ever before, the new C1000 S features a bass-cut switch and a switchable -10 dB pad.

The polar pattern can quickly be switched from cardioid to hyper-cardioid. Three different frequency settings are adding more clarity to speech and instrument sounds.

The D112 MkII can handle more than 160 dB SPL without distortion. Its large diaphragm has a very low resonance frequency that delivers a solid and powerful response below 100 Hz. Its authoritative low end is complemented by a narrow-band presence boost at 4 kHz that punches through even dense mixes and loud stage volumes with forceful impact. One of the many reasons artists and sound engineers love the D112 MkII is that it requires no additional EQ to sound just right as soon as you bring up the fader. Further refining its performance, the D112 MkII features an integrated hum-compensation coil that keeps noise to an absolute minimum.

In addition to being an exceptional bass drum mic on stage and in the studio, the D112 MkII is an excellent choice for miking electric bass cabinets and trombones.

An unmistakable stage icon for 70 years, the Shure 55SH Series II Unidyne® Vocal Microphone features a signature satin chrome-plated die-cast casing for pure vintage look and feel with modern acoustic components to meet today’s performance standards. This microphone is excellent for vocal pickup with its characteristic Shure presence peak.

The 55SH Series II microphone has a cardioid (unidirectional) polar pickup pattern that minimizes sound pickup from the rear of the microphone. This allows the Model 55SH Series II to be used in close proximity to loudspeakers without creating feedback problems, and it can perform under adverse acoustic conditions where omnidirectional microphones cannot.

55SH Series II: Includes Swivel Stand Mount, On-Off Switch. Cable not included.

Features
Classic appearance, modern performance
Frequency response tailored for speech, vocals and instrumental music
Cardioid directional pattern for optimum performance in adverse acoustic environments
Shock-mounted cartridge minimizes stand-transmitted noise, ensures quiet operation
Rugged die cast casing for reliability under rigorous conditions
Self-tensioning swivel mount, permits tilting through 45 degrees forward and 80 degrees backward

The Shure A95U is a reversible transformer that matches low- or high-impedance microphones to high- or low-impedance inputs. The transformer permits use of very long microphone cables with high-impedance microphones. However, when connecting a high-impedance microphone, limit the cable length between the microphone and the transformer to 4.6 m (15 foot). The cable from the transformer to the low-impedance input can be any desired length.

The transformer prevents high-frequency loss, level loss, and pickup of noise and hum. The A95U comes furnished with a Male XLR connector on the low-impedance end, with a 1/4 inch phone plug and phone jack adapter on the high-impedance end.
