General

Initially, Marantz introduced the Audio Scope series to improve internal DSLR camera microphones, but the SB-C2 X/Y stereo condenser microphone does much more than that. The audio quality of this mic is better than that of a top-quality DSLR camera and it's stereo as well. The features are often only found on more expensive models and the X/Y pattern ensures a clean distinction between the left and right channels, resulting in a balanced stereo recording. The low-cut filter reduces unwanted noise and wind when capturing audio in noisy areas or outdoors, for instance, and the RFI shielding technology delivers an interference-free signal when mobile telephones and similar devices are nearby.

Marantz Audio Scope SB-C2 X/Y stereo condenser microphone

Wrote the following about Marantz Audio Scope SB-C2 X/Y stereo condenser microphone
Deze stereo microfoon is gekocht om het geluid van een Panasonic HC-VXF-1 Camcorder te verbeteren. Voor de verstaanbaarheid van stemmen is het inderdaad een verbetering, zeker bij buitenopnames. Dat komt voornamelijk door de bijgeleverde windkap. Voor muziek is het resultaat tegenvallend. De frequentie karakteristiek laat een zeer wisselvallig verloop zien en de laagweergave valt sterk terug (-10 db) onder de 100 Hz. De merknaam Marantz deed beter verwachten.
