Digital Microphone Amplifier CMD 2

The digital amplifier CMD 2 seamlessly extends the SCHOEPS ”Colette” modular microphone system. Instead of 48 Volt phantom powering, it operates with the standard digital phantom powering of an AES 42-type digital input. Sonically it is fully the equal of SCHOEPS' CMC-series analog microphones, but the internal A/D conversion eliminates analog interference and signal losses either in the cable or at the inputs of analog preamps and mixers.

The CMD 2 was nominated in 2005 for the ”mipa”
(Musik messe International Press Award).

CMD 2 U xt – the 40 kHz Version

This version has frequency response to 40 kHz and beyond, and can be used with any SCHOEPS ”Colette” capsules that are axially addressed rather than sideaddressed.
Special marking: the letters ”xt” engraved on the back of the connector housing.
