Transformerless electronics give a linear frequency response across 20 Hz–20 kHz, a maximum SPL of 146 dB (156 dB with the -20 dB pad), and a low 16 dB(A) self-noise. Every unit is factory-measured and tuned in an anechoic chamber to a ±0.5 dB tolerance at 1 kHz, meaning a single CC8 can be paired up with a second one at any point without risking a mismatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA single mic as a starting point for a stereo pair\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA common budgeting problem: buying two mics upfront means a bigger initial outlay, even when a single unit is enough to start with for mono recording. Thanks to the CC8's strict factory calibration, there's no need to buy the pair at once — a single mic bought today will match a second CC8 purchased a year later just as well, removing the risk that comes with building a pair from a model with looser production tolerances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThree pads and a switchable filter instead of one universal setting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePencil mics used as drum overheads or on brass instruments can be overloaded by very loud sources, while quieter acoustic instruments need every last bit of dynamic range preserved. The CC8 addresses this with three pads (0, -10, -20 dB) and a switchable 60\/120 Hz high-pass filter (2nd order), letting you set up close to a trumpet without risking overload, then switch to tracking delicate fingerstyle acoustic guitar moments later without losing detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall-diaphragm condenser microphone with the OCC7 capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-calibrated to ±0.5 dB tolerance at 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-micron gold-coated PEN diaphragm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransformerless electronics for a linear frequency response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 pads: 0 dB, -10 dB, -20 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitchable 60 Hz \/ 120 Hz high-pass filter (2nd order)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions for positioning in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOCH8 clip, CCW8 windscreen, and carrying case included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolar pattern: cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency range: 20 Hz - 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 15 mV\/Pa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquivalent noise level: 16 dB(A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 146 dB SPL (156 dB SPL with -20 dB pad)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow cut filter: 60 Hz (2nd order) or 120 Hz (2nd order)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: rugged metal housing, capsule cap, and grille\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory calibration: ±0.5 dB at 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Austrian Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54332669165905,"sku":"60623","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/AustrianAudioCC81.jpg?v=1784209445","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr-fr\/products\/austrian-audio-cc8","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
