Samson built it as a general purpose studio workhorse for vocals, acoustic instruments and overhead drum miking, and it behaves like one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWarmth and clarity from a 19mm capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe capsule uses a large 19mm dual-layer diaphragm with a cardioid pickup pattern, which produces a smooth, flat frequency response. Two ultra-thin sensor diaphragms capture far more detail than any dynamic element, and the result is accurate, detailed and smooth audio with warm bass and extended highs. On acoustic guitar you get the strings and the wood. On a vocal you get the breath and the resonance. Over a kit you get the shimmer of a ride cymbal rather than a dull wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for the studio\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty mesh grille around the capsule.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGold-plated XLR connector.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED that indicates 48V phantom power is present.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwivel mount included, fits any standard microphone stand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional SP01 Spider Shockmount for increased microphone and sound stability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat you need to run it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike any condenser, the C01 needs 48V phantom power, so plan on an audio interface, mixer or preamp that can supply it. The phantom LED is genuinely useful here: if the light is off, the problem is upstream, not the mic. Cardioid means placement matters, so aim the front of the capsule squarely at the source and let the rear rejection do the work of keeping the room out of the track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it earns its keep\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSamson points the C01 at content creation, live sound and audio for video. In practice that covers vocal tracking in a home studio, acoustic guitar and other acoustic instruments, and a pair used as drum overheads. If you record in an untreated room, the optional shockmount and careful placement will do more for the result than any amount of processing afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49101142196480,"sku":"C01","price":100.92,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/0871\/5776\/files\/samson-c01-01.jpg?v=1785434575","url":"https:\/\/musicshop.sg\/products\/samson-c01-large-diaphragm-cardioid-condenser-microphone","provider":"Musicshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
