Schoeps BLM 03g C Miniature Boundary-Layer Capsule Three-Inch Disc *pressure transducer with hemispherical pattern. *active miniature version of the BLM 3g. *unobtrusive, universally applicable. The BLM 03 Cg offers all the recognized advantages of the BLM 3g, while its smaller size permits more unobtrusive microphone placement. Its shallow profile and circular shape can often be disguised or hidden, e.g. under a light tablecloth. It is recommended in those cases where the BLM 3g is too large (e.g. for TV or film sound) or too heavy (e.g. for mounting in the interior of a car under the roof, or beneath the lid of a piano). An Active Cable hard-wired to the BLM 03 Cg allows it to be joined to any microphone amplifier of the Colette Series (except the battery-operated model CMBI) to become a complete microphone. The Active Filter CUT may also be added.It should be noted that any boundary-layer microphone must be placed on a sufficiently large sound-reflecting surface for adequate low-frequency pickup. For speech applications as, for example, when a conference is to be recorded, a table top may be sufficient, but most music recordings will require the use of a larger surface.Dimensions: diameter: 80 mm, max. height: ca. 8.6 mmCable length: 5 mWeight without microphone amplifier CMC: 233 g Surface finish: matte gray
