Neutral Sounding Mic Capsule for 3 Zigma Head Amps
Looking for a workhorse small-diaphragm condenser mic? Pair this ADK SD-C CM capsule module with one of two ADK head amps, and you'll have a cardioid small-diaphragm condenser microphone that you'll turn to again and again for miking just about anything. The ADK SD-C CM capsule module sports a lovely flat frequency response that gives it a truly neutral sound and precise directionality. Sweetwater studio engineers can't help but be impressed by the ingenuity and quality of the ADK 3 Zigma modular system, and we're sure that you will be, too.
Note: This product is the capsule module only. You'll need to purchase a head amp in order to make it a workable microphone. Please consult your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have questions or concerns.
The ADK 3 Zigma modular system
You’ll need a head amp in order to transform this capsule into a microphone, and the modular 3 Zigma series from ADK gives you a choice of two excellent options depending on your needs. Choose the HA-TL ultra-low noise head amp for a microphone with incredibly low self-noise. For louder sound sources that require a mic that can handle high SPL, choose the HA-FX ultra-high SPL transformer coupled head amp. Of course, Sweetwater engineers recommend keeping one of each on hand to be prepared for any recording situation.
ADK: modern specs, vintage sound
Driven by musicians and engineers with many decades of experience, ADK’s product development is informed by input from the worldwide community of artists, producers, and golden-eared studio and live sound engineers who assisted in the design of these microphones. Despite their impressive affordability, ADK microphones benefit from both best practices and premium components. ADK mics are engineered with minimalist circuit paths to extract maximum sonic performance from each and every design. As a result, ADK microphones exhibit exponentially better dynamic range and lower self-noise than the vintage classics they’re inspired by. Sweetwater is delighted to offer you ADK’s outstanding lineup of high-value, high-performance mics. Meticulously handcrafted using the best possible components sourced from highly respected parts manufacturers worldwide, ADK microphones are poised to elevate the quality of your sound.
