Expert Audio Engineering Commentary
Tonal Profile
A small-diaphragm cardioid pencil on the CKR6 capsule: overheads, acoustic guitar, hi-hat. Two low cuts and two pads, 146 dB SPL, 140 g.
Gain Staging Advice
-36.5 dBV/Pa is the loudest of the three Austrian Audio entries here, and 16 dB(A) the noisiest - the usual small-capsule trade. The 275-ohm output impedance is shared across the whole line.
