Golden age FC4-MC
FC 4 MC – A Versatile and High-Performance Microphone
The FC 4 MC is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone with interchangeable capsules for maximum adaptability. Its discrete, low-noise, transformer-free Class A electronics guarantee exceptional sound quality.
With its three interchangeable capsules (cardioid, hyper-cardioid and omnidirectional), each equipped with a 20 mm gold-plated diaphragm, the FC 4 MC adapts to all recording and concert situations. It reproduces with great precision the clarity of an acoustic guitar, every nuance of a piano, the harmonic richness of a violin or the power of a saturated amp.
For increased flexibility, it includes a high-pass filter and a -10 dB attenuator, allowing you to record both powerful sound sources and voices with excellent definition.
The FC 4 MC is three microphones in one! Ideal for close-range recordings with good isolation or for capturing natural ambiences with different sound colors.
