    AKG C 45IE modular condenser microphone system DESCRIPTION The AKG C-451E Condenser Microphone Modular System (CMS) represents the most unique, practical and economical approach in keeping pace with cur­ rent ever-changing requirements encountered in the Recording, Broadcast, Motion Picture and Sound Re­ inforcement Industries. The CMS is based on the C-451E preamplifier, using audio frequency circuitry with Field Effect Transistors. A choice of high quality, matched condenser micro­ phone capsules, each with a different type of response characteristic and pick-up pattern may be freely inter­ changed on the C-451E preamplifier (see following page). A complete selection of components and accessories, such as attenuation pads, suspensions, windscreens, etc., further illustrates the broad flexibility of the CMS. The C-451E preamplifier may be phantom powered directly off the B + supply of the associated (mixing console, tape recorder, etc.) equipments amplifier (for details on phantom powering technique see opposite page). Separate power supplies, such as the N-46E or N-6E a.c. power supplies and B-46E d.c. battery power supply are also available.

  • 1 Mic Preamps #22 Unless You Are Entirely Recording
    P a g e | 1 Mic Preamps #22 Unless you are entirely recording electronic music, everything you record originates with a microphone and a microphone preamplifier. What is the function of a preamplifier, anyway? The term came about in the 1930s to describe the circuit that boosted the very low level coming out of a microphone to a level high enough to drive a power amplifier for a PA system, or a broadcast transmitter. Really, a preamplifier is just a specialized amplifier optimized for its function. The term “preamplifier” also applies to a gain stage that boosts the very small signal from a phono cartridge or from a tape head. But today I want to talk about microphone preamplifiers. Dynamic and ribbon microphones generate their minute outputs by converting mechanical motion into an electrical signal using an electromagnetic principle. The voltage coming out of a microphone is tiny, but of course it depends on the sound pressure level at the microphone. If you put a microphone very close to a source of loud sound, the output level can be quite high – much higher than you might imagine. Conversely, a mic placed a distance from a quiet sound source will produce a very low voltage. The mic preamp has to handle this wide range, which could easily exceed a 50dB range. Condenser mics work on a different principle and their output level is considerably higher than the level from a dynamic or ribbon mic. My podcast episode on Microphones goes into a lot more detail on all types of microphones, if you want more information.

  • Technical Glossary for BBC Engineers (1941)
    TECHNICAL GLOSSARY FOR B B C ENGINEERS compiled by E. L. E. PAWLEY THE BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION 1941 FOREWORD This technical glossary- includes terms used in electrical and radio engineering generally, and in broadcasting par- ticularly. Terms of more general interest in broadcasting am included in the BBC '~lossaryof Broadcasting ~erms' (in some cases with slightly different definitions of a less technical flavour); such terms are marked with an asterisk where they occur in this Technical Glossary. Words in italics are defined herein. Where alternative terms are given, the one preferred is given first, and the others are shown in brackets. The use of terms marked 'deprecated' should be avoided, usually because they are inaccurate or ambiguous. Explanatory matter is given in brackets after the definition. The word 'wireless' is usually interchangeable with 'radio', except in certain established phrases such as 'wireless exchange' and 'radio-frequency'. The meaning given for any term is not necessarily the only one used, but is one current in the work of the En- gineering Division of the BBC. Terms peculiar to television are not included in the present edition. In compiling this Glossary, reference has been made to the following publications:- BBC Technical Tables and Glossary 1931 (now out of print); British Standard Glossary of Terms used in Electrical Engineering (B.S. 205-1936); International Electrotechnical Vocabulary, published by the International Electrotechnical Commission, 1938; Chambers's Technical Dictionary 1940; and to other sources. Suggestions for additions, alterations, or corrections to this Technical Glossary should be addressed to Head of Overseas and Engineering Information Department, Broadcasting House, London, W.1.
