4006C Compact Omni Mic
Whenever a small, lightweight and inconspicuous microphone for top-quality recording is required, the 4006C Compact Omni Mic is the perfect choice. The mic design is compact and clean.
This is a very versatile recording microphone. It is popular as an A-B stereo pair in concert halls where quality recordings can sometimes be compromised by classic architecture. The mic can be mounted, hung or concealed to create clean, transparent recordings.
It is ideal for use in theatres, opera houses, concert halls and houses of worship – anywhere there is a live audience. It can also be for film recordings, both in the studio and on location. Musicians like to use this mic to close mic some instruments, such as the double bass, trumpet and piano. At the same time, they are fantastic for ambience miking on soundstages, in sports stadiums and other environments where audience sound needs to be recorded.
