Three switchable bass filters
The switchable bass-cut filters reduce sonic coloration and the risk of low-
frequency distortion.
The slope of the 40 and 80 Hz filters is more than 12 dB-per-octave and these
are especially useful in combating wind noise or vibrations from stage floors.
The 160 Hz filter has a gentler 6 dB-per-octave slope useful in minimizing prox-
imity effect.
Predictable performance even in humid conditions
To minimize the negative effects of humidity, all switching circuits are located in
a sealed low-impedance section to prevent problems.
To test the stability of our microphones' performance, they are tested in simu-
lated climatic conditions between -25° C (-13° F) and +65° C (+149° F) as well
as relative humidity as high as 99% (immediately below point of condensation)
above +20° C (+68° F). The new C 414 B models can handle temperature ex-
tremes anywhere and still deliver perfect performance.
Optional remote control
All switchable functions of the microphone can also be controlled by the option-
al R 414 remote control unit (available by the end of 2004). The remote control
transmits its commands to the microphone over conventional two-conductor
shielded microphone cables to maintain complete interface compatibility with
your other equipment.
Matched stereo pairs
The new C 414 B models are also available in factory-matched pairs.
The matched pairs consist of two microphones that come closest to each other
in sensitivity and frequency response when used in the cardioid mode. The kit
includes all the standard accessories of the deluxe package (excluding the PF 80)
along with a stereo bar and proof of performance charts.
