Product Description

Featuring upgraded electronics and a sleek new look, the new SP microphone product line is the result of 5 years of research and development by Brent Casey, veteran microphone designer and Vice President of Engineering of Studio Projects. The new electronics allow for better signal to noise ratio, as well as greater dynamic range.

All C Series microphones (except the T3) now have -10dB and -20dB pads, and 75Hz and 150Hz high pass filters. The C3 now has 27 different possible variations of settings.

The Studio Projects C3 is a large diaphragm dual membrane condenser microphone employing a 1.35 in. (34.5mm) capsule, high quality, low noise amplifier and balanced, transformerless output circuitry. It features 3 onboard switchable patterns, a -10dB and -20dB pads, and 75Hz and 150Hz high pass filters for added control in all manner of recording situation. The C3 has a precise response and a distinct sought-after sonic characteristic commonly associated with large capsule microphone designs.

The beauty of the C3 is in the fact that it is capable of achieving results which are typically entrusted only to microphones boasting very large price tags. The reasons behind this can be attributed to the manufacturing process and the components used to build the mic. It is not ?magic,? but rather solid, proven design principles and repeatable build tolerances that are responsible for the performance of the C3. The ratio of quality to price guarantees the C3 to be a benefit to nearly any studio from the modest home setup to the high profile, big-city recording facilities.

As a result of uncompromising dedication and advanced production capabilities, Studio Projects continues to broaden the range of quality pro audio microphones & electronics for today's recording environments.
