Product description

• Senal SCM-660 Large-Diaphragm Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone
  • Senal SCM-660 Unboxing & Overview
  The SCM-660 from Senal is a professional-grade, multi-pattern, true condenser microphone that features a large 1.3" gold-plated transducer element. The microphone offers a full, rich tone, making it an ideal choice for studio recording, broadcasting, podcasting, or live recording. With an SPL handling of 140 dB, the SCM-600 captures vocals and instruments accurately and with pristine clarity.With three selectable polar patterns, cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8, the SCM-660 is capable of a wide range of miking techniques and configurations. In addition, the onboard -10 dB attenuation pad optimizes signal levels, and the integrated 80 Hz high-pass filter rolls off unwanted low-frequency noise and rumble when recording.Built with all-metal construction, the microphone comes with a suspension shockmount with additional suspension bands to reduce unwanted vibrations. A rugged aluminum carry case, a protective pouch, and a 5/8" threaded adapter are also included.
