Pearl Microphone Labs CO22 Omnidirectional Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone (Matched Pair)

This matched pair of CO22 mics from Pearl Microphone Labs provides musicians, producers, and engineers with two large-diaphragm condenser microphones with omnidirectional polar patterns designed for professional studio recording. The set is especially well suited to A/B stereo recording configurations. At the heart of the CO22 lies the rubber-fitted capsule based on the pearl 2800, a unique rectangular shaped condenser capsule that offers an extremely smooth off-axis response, detailed sound reproduction, and very-low self noise.

The tall and narrow capsule gives the CO22 a distinctive sonic signature, similar in some ways to a ribbon microphone. The detailed transient reproduction and smooth off-axis response makes the 22 series an excellent choice for orchestral and choral recordings, but it also performs well on other transient-rich sources, such as acoustic guitar or piano. The transformerless circuitry ensures a clear, natural sound and very low noise. The omnidirectional polar pattern in the CO22 makes it very well suited for capturing room acoustics and particularly sweet sounding performance environments.

Each mic features a gold-plated XLR connector, requires 48V phantom power, and includes a rubber shockmount; a wooden case to accommodate the set is also supplied. Each CO22 is finished in piano-black ED lacquer with a white logo, ring, and engraved model number.
