– wide cardioids
– polar pattern very well maintained

throughout the frequency range

– a favorable compromise between

omni (good low-frequency response)
and cardioid (consistent directional
pattern at all frequencies)

Uses:
CCM 21: often preferred for use as a

spot microphone, or as the main
pair for overall stereo pickup

CCM 21H: often preferred for use

when recording vocals, acoustic
guitar or percussion

CCM 22

– new kind of directional pattern:

“Open Cardioid”

– optimal combination of classic car-

dioid directionality (MK 4) with the
sonic character of the wide cardioid
(MK 21)

– directional pattern largely constant

throughout the frequency range

Uses:
for spot miking and as a soloist’s

microphone
