The microphone 

Rugged construction, high SPL handling in a compact chassis makes the CM-67 an ideal choice for live 
sound reinforcement or live recording applications. It is also an ideal choice as a utility microphone for 
home or project studios where performance is required, yet budget is a concern. 
 
The CM-67 can easily be used as an overhead mic. for drum kits, for guitar and bass cabinets or 
anywhere where superior sound quality and high sound pressure handling is required. The CM-67 is also 
the microphone of choice for vocals saxophone, flutes, brass or woodwinds, acoustic guitar or acoustic 
bass where subtlety and clarity is needed. 
 
In live sound applications and remote recording, the CM-67’s cardioid pattern offers excellent feedback 
rejection, better isolation and will give you the best results on most vocal applications and a wide range 
solo instruments, including background, brass and woodwinds,  acoustic stringed instruments (violin, cello 
etc.), drums and percussion. 
 

Note: The cardioid symbol on the microphone housing denotes the live side, or front face of the 
microphone that in all cases should face the recording source. 
 
 

Switching the internal low cut filter on or off 

The CM-67 is a professional medium diaphragm condenser microphone with an internal -6dB 100Hz low 
cut filter switch. To operate the low cut switch, unscrew the bottom of the microphone housing, slide the 
microphone body from the chassis. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Look for the blue switch in the middle of the microphone circuit board. Pressing the switch activates the 
low cut filter.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
In virtual all recording or live sound applications, the low cut filter should be engaged to reduce handling 
noise and low frequency rumble.
