DISCREET ACOUSTICS MODULAR-SERIES
The Discreet Acoustics Modular-Series is a new modular back
electret microphone system. It comprises five capsule modules and
six installation modules (five gooseneck and one hanging module)
which can be used in any combination. The modules screw together
for extremely stable and reliable connections.
Applications include speech reinforcement and recording in
places of worship, conference centers, at panel discussions, etc.
STANDARD ACCESSORIES: WINDSCREENS
The CK 47 and CK 80 include the unchanged W 70 or W 80
windscreen, respectively. The CK 31, 32, and 33 capsule modules
come with a new, two-layer windscreen called the W 30. Two differ-
ent materials provide optimum rejection of wind noise. The dark
gray outer layer swirls the impinging air stream. The colored inside
layer is more permeable to air and acoustically neutral. It steadies
the air stream before it hits the diaphragm. This two-stage process
cuts wind noise extremely efficiently.
INSTALLATION MODULES
All installation modules feature a status LED ring normally pow-
ered off the phantom supply voltage. When the microphone has been
correctly connected and the system and phantom power switched on,
the LED ring will glow at medium brightness. Thus, the sound system
operator will know at a glance which microphones have been
installed correctly. Note that in this configuration the LED ring only
indicates the system is ready to operate (NOT that the microphone is
open!). However, all installation modules except for the E versions
allow the LED ring to be powered from an external supply for “open
mic” indication. In this mode, the LED ring will light much more
brightly to alert the talker that their mic is open. Where neither of
these functions is desired, the user may deactivate the LED ring alto-
gether. This allows you for the first time to select status indicator
modes without having to buy a new microphone.
