Rycote CA-08 Compact Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Rycote CA-08 Compact Cardioid Condenser Microphone

The Rycote CA-08 is a cardioid pencil condenser microphone designed for a range of applications in studio and field recording.

The CA-08 microphones provide slight directionality with a virtually flat frequency response from 70Hz-20KHz, gradually dropping off below 60Hz. The mics are built on Rycote’s low self-noise preamp design and capsules, which offer a consistent sonic signature that mixes well when cut together with other Rycote microphones in the range. The CA-08 mics can be used individually or in matched stereo pairs. Please Note: This product page is for a single CA-O8 microphone. For the Stereo Pair 2-pack option, please see here.
