The Teenage Engineering CM15 Condenser Mic is a compact condenser microphone, perfect for both studio and desktop recording. Its small size allows it to be used anywhere and its built-in battery has a charge life of up to 10 hours. Its USB C connection charges the mic and provides connectivity to any device such as a computer, smartphone or tablet. It also has an additional three-pin XLR analog output with phantom power and a 3.5mm TRS auxiliary output. Equipped with a large gold diaphragm with a super-cardioid polar pattern, the CM-15 has an impressive, detailed pickup, and it features a powerful ESS Sabre ADC that retains all natural nuances of your recording. Designed with precision, the inner circuitry minimises handling noise and sonic interference. You can select between three different levels of gain depending on the application, with a switch on the back of the mic. You can easily position the CM-15 with a discrete stand that lets you angle it towards yourself, and it can also be attached to an optional microphone stand (NOT INCLUDED). It comes with a USB- C cable, a mini-XLR to regular XLR cable, and a mic stand adapter. The CM-15 mic fits in with the rest of Teenage Engineering's stylish designs, with a classic matte grey aesthetic.
