RYCOTE CA-8 SP Stereo Pair Cardioid Condenser Microphone - RYC079006

Stereo Pairs are commonly used for foley, field, and design sound recording. Rycote stereo pairs are accurately selected to be identical to the tighter tolerances. This is to ensure an identic sound response to capture the most real stereo image. It is like using two DSLR cameras + lens to stitch for a panorama shot, they need to be identical and accurately placed. Rycote offers St. pair within 0.5db sensitivity. Different polar pattern stereo pairs are designed to perform different stereo recording setups.

Cardioid Stereo Pair
A classic on stereo pairs for its versatility Ideal for XY and ORTF configuration

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.

SC-08
Sharing the same core pre-amplifier electronics, the SC-08 (Super-cardioid) is the same as the shotguns in terms of performance but with a narrower polar pattern than the CA-08. This is a favourite for many as a vocal mic for dialogue and especially for interior recording

Applications
Great for Docu-series with sit-down interviews, Cinema, and TV.
Can also be used on organs or acoustic instruments as well (strings family).
