Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the Samson CL7 studio condenser. The CL7 features a large, 1.1-inch, ultra thin diaphragm capsule which faithfully reproduces a variety of sound sources including vocals, acoustic instruments and overhead cymbals, to name a few. The extended frequency and fast tran- sient response insures an accurate reproduction with linear characteristics from bottom to top. In these pages, you’ll find a detailed description of the features of the CL7 Studio C

Operating the CL7 Powering the CL7 The CL7 is a condenser microphone and therefore needs to be operated by connecting a phantom power supply. Phantom power is standard on most quali- ty mixers, outboard mic-pres and hard disk recorders. If necessary, an external phantom supply can also be used. The CL7 receives the phantom power direct- ly from a mic cable when connected to a mixer or other microphone input that includes a phantom supply. The power is sent OUT of the microphone INPUT, riding sil

Operating the CL7 Microphone Placement In order to maximize the sound quality, you must pay careful attention to the placement of your CL7 and how it is positioned for the instrument or vocalist that you are miking. All microphones, especially uni-directional or cardioid microphones, exhibit a phenomenon known as “proximity effect.” Very simply put, proximity effect is a resulting change in the frequency response of a micro- phone based on the position of the mic capsule relative to the sound so
