MC59 – MODULAR MICROPHONE SYSTEM

The Nevaton MC 59 Modular Small True Condenser Microphones are exceptionally small and feature a wide variety of interchangeable capsules which can be combined with four different types of super linear Class-A amplifiers.

Currently, there are six different capsules available:

  • Omnidirectional
  • Omnidirectional+ (diffuse field equalized)
  • Open Wide Cardioid
  • Wide Cardioid
  • Cardioid
  • Hypercardioid/Shotgun
  • Additional capsule varieties are currently in development (e.g. the displayed O2 capsule which features an omnidirectional capsule with 16mm diameter)

A figure-8 pattern is also available, not as an individual capsule, but as a complete microphone.

  • MC59 – features an integrated 3-pin XLR-type connector on the microphone-body.
  • MC59-E – features an integrated 3-pin XLR-type connector on the microphone body. It additionally offers a − 10 dB attenuation switch and a switchable low cut filter at 100Hz with a slope of -6dB per octave.
  • MC59S – extremely small, compact and lightweight, with a deducted connector – 3-pin XLR-type on a cable (custom cable lengths of up to ten meters at no extra costs)
  • MC59S-E – exceptionally small, compact and lightweight, featuring a 3-pin XLR-type connector on a cable (custom cable lengths of up to ten meters at no extra costs). It additionally offers a -10 dB attenuation switch along with a switchable low cut at 100Hz (-6dB/Oct).

Each of them comes equipped with the following features:

  • extremely linear A-class amplifier (up to 1 MHz)
  • extremely low self noise of 5-6dB-A (depending on the capsule)
  • advanced RFI filter against interference from external sources, such as radio transmissions, wireless devices, etc.
  • low output impedance allows cable lengths of up to 400m
