Schoeps CMC64-SetG Modular Microphone Set

This consist of CMC6 with MK4 cardioid capsule, SG20 Stand Clamp, B5 Popscreen

CMC 6
The capsules of condenser microphones (the only type which we manufacture) can't be connected directly to microphone cables or inputs; a microphone amplifier is required in between. Thus a complete microphone of the Colette series comprises any of the twenty available types of capsules combined with an amplifier.

The CMC 6 is designed for standard 48- and 12-Volt phantom powering. Its circuitry recognizes the supply voltage and adjusts itself automatically. Its performance characteristics remain essentially the same either way; mainly, the difference is that the current drawn at 12 Volts is greater than at 48 Volts. However, the 12-Volt mode consumes less power and might be preferred for battery-powered recording.


The microphone amplifier provides the electrostatic charge which the capsule requires in order to produce a signal. Since only a miniscule amount of current is contained in this signal, amplification of the current is required. To avoid interference to the signal on the way from the microphone to the input of the mixer or preamp, the signal is conveyed at low impedance and in balanced form. The CMC 6 amplifier offers a symmetrical, transformerless, direct-coupled Class A output stage with low impedance, low distortion, and high freedom from interference.

  • flat frequency response
  • extremely low noise and distortion
  • balanced, very low-impedance output
  • can be used with very long cables
  • well-protected against RFI
  • for use with 12- or 48-Volt phantom powering
MK4
The MK 4 is strongly directional. Sound arriving from off axis is attenuated even more than with a cardioid. The pickup is "drier" and less susceptible to acoustic feedback than any other SCHOEPS capsule type (a loudspeaker should not be located directly along the rear axis of the microphone, however)..
  • supercardioid with highly consistent directionality throughout its frequency range
  • for music and speech
  • high directivity, comparable to that of a short "shotgun" microphone up through midrange frequencies
  • often preferred for use in film sound recording and as a spot microphone in orchestras
SG20
The base of the SG 20 has a 5/8"-27 NS internal thread. A threaded adapter is supplied for 3/8" and 1/2" mounting.

The angle can be varied continuously in the vertical plane.
  • for a microphone of 20 or 21 mm diameter (e.g. CMC, CMD, CMIT or CMBI)
B5
Acoustic foam close-speech popscreen; provides
sufficient protection at normal speaking distances for cardioids and other directional capsules, especially when speech capsules are used. With omnidirectional capsules it may even be used outdoors in light wind. Minimal effect on sound quality.
  • for moderate distances from the person speaking
  • can also be used as a windscreen for pressure transducers
  • negligible effect on sound quality

5 of 5 Excellent for Authenticity April 7, 2023
Reviewer: Vincent E. from Wilmington, DE United States  
Extremely neutral mics that “paint” a very authentic  â€œpicture”.  The day they arrived I A/B’d them against my 184’s using a Martin 0000 and a Froggy Bottom M acoustic guitar. The results confirmed what I heard in demos on YouTube..the 184’s color the sound and required me to make EQ tweaks the Schoeps sounded more natural and required no adjusts in post.  My first tracks using my cmc64’s was recording.a Mcilroy A225 acoustic guitar and again I didn’t have to EQ…. They recorded the guitar perfectly.   Are the Schoeps THAT much better than 184’s  and worth the the extra cash?  Well, it’s too early for me to say but it all comes down to your tastes. I loved my 184 ‘s ..still do… right now my ears are leaning to my cmc64’s and we’re worth the cash.
