The Behringer C-1 condenser microphone brings exceptional studio-quality recording within reach of any home studio. With its large 16 mm diaphragm and cardioid polar pattern, the C-1 condenser mic captures the subtlest nuances of any audio source with impressive sensitivity and musicality. From acoustic guitars to vocals and overhead drum miking, the C-1 condenser microphone is a versatile performer that sounds like it should cost far more.

With a Cardioid Pickup Pattern That Rejects Off-Axis Sound

The cardioid polar pattern of the C-1 condenser microphone focuses on sound directly in front of the mic capsule while rejecting unwanted off-axis audio. The cardioid pattern's sensitivity to sound from the front helps bring out every harmonic and textural detail with stunning accuracy. You'll capture recordings with clarity and focus, without muddiness from ambient noise.

Equipped With a Large Diaphragm That Captures Subtle Nuances

At the heart of the C-1 is its 16 mm diaphragm. The generous surface area allows the diaphragm to respond to the most subtle sonic details with exceptional transient response across the audible spectrum. The large diaphragm also minimizes distortion, allowing you to record louder sources without compromise.

Delivering a Wide Frequency Response

With a frequency range spanning 20Hz–20kHz, the C-1 condenser mic accurately reproduces the entire audible range with smooth, neutral response. The extended high-frequency response in particular brings out extra detail and airiness for exceptionally transparent and natural recordings. Whether you are recording vocals or acoustic instruments, the C-1 condenser microphone delivers the true sound you hear.

Powered by Transformerless FET Circuitry for Low Noise

The C-1 condenser microphone features transformerless FET (field effect transistor) circuitry for ultralow noise performance. Without bulky audio transformers, the signal path is direct and interference-free. The FET design also eliminates distortion while providing a wide dynamic range to handle everything from subtle whispers to loud passages. From whisper-quiet nuance to roaring crescendos, the C-1 condenser mic captures it all with impressive audio transparency.
