General

The Sony C 48 is a large diaphragm, multi-pattern condenser microphone designed for vocal and general instrument recording and sound reinforcement. The C 48 features 3 selectable polar-patterns. Cardioid, omni-directional and bi-directional (figure eight) patterns provide the flexibility needed for any recording application. The C 48 is powered via +48 volt phantom or 9 Volt DC alkaline battery. The capsule is securely housed in a vibration proof enclosure eliminating noise caused by handling. A 10dB Pad switch improves Sound Pressure Level handling. A 2 position low-frequency roll-off switch reduces hum and noise registered at lower frequencies.

Features

Vibration-proof structure to eliminate noise transmitted through cable or stand

Selectable directivity-uni-directional, omni-directional or bi-directional

2-way powering-internal battery (50 hours of continuous operation) or external power supply

Suitable for vocal and instrumental recording

l0dB attenuation switch

2 position low cut switch
