CAD C195

Common name: CAD Audio C195

Production Status: Discontinued / Vintage

The CAD C195 is a low-noise, electret condenser cardioid microphone designed for professional vocalists and musicians. It has a transformerless electronic design which provides optimum low frequency response and low distortion. An effective internal multistage pop filter minimizes wind and breath noise. The CAD C195 has a Flex-Form™ hardened steel grille screen that resists deformation. An internal rubber shock mount isolates the transducer from the barrel, thus dramatically reducing cable, stand and handling noise. The need for any external shock mounting device is virtually eliminated.
