With a handy swivel stand mount included in the sleek transport case, the C-1 just may be the only microphone your studio will need. What is a Condenser Mic? Condenser microphones are the ideal choice for capturing vocals and acoustic instruments. They’re the primary type of microphone used in recording studios and radio stations. C-1 mics are capable of capturing much more detail than most dynamic microphones because of their wider, flatter frequency response. Another difference between condenser and dynamic mics is they contain active circuitry that requires phantom power (+48 V) for operation. You can power your C-1 using any phantom power equipped Behringer XENYX mixer, plus enjoy the benefits of our state-of-the-art XENYX mic preamps. Why the C-1? C-1 microphone is an affordable, high-quality way to get what you really hear down on tape (or in bits). Thanks to the pressure gradient transducer and shock-mounted large diaphragm capsule, the C-1 delivers an open, transparent sound with excellent transient response. Featuring a superb cardioid (heart-shaped) pickup pattern, the C-1 picks up your source signal, while rejecting off-axis sounds that can ruin an otherwise perfect recording. The C-1 truly delivers on the promise of noise-free transmission, with the utmost transparency – and features an LED that shows you when the mic is receiving phantom power, taking the guesswork out of the equation. But That’s Not All… The C-1 microphone is designed to be your go-to condenser mics for many years to come. The tough, die-cast metal body can withstand all the rigors of those late-night recording marathons – and the included carrying case ensures they always travel in safety and style. The studio-grade C-1 condenser microphone is an excellent choice for both live and studio applications. Check out the incredible C-1 at a dealer near you.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between this and the C-3?**
A: The C-1 is a directional microphone, best used for vocals (singing, rapping) because it only picks up in one direction and ignores pretty much everything else. The C-3 is a Dual-Diaphragm Condenser mic, so it has 3 settings, it can pick up sound all around it, front back and then it has a similar setting to be used as a directional mic.Basically it gives you a few more options, but the C-1 is pretty good if you only want a directional mic.

**Q: Does this microphone plug into a xlr cable?**
A: Yes. The only way to connect it is XLR. Requires phantom power.

**Q: does it come with the mic cable?**
A: yes, the standard 1/8 mic jack

**Q: I just got my Behringer C1 in the mail yesterday. I can't get it to work. I hooked it up to my Steinberg UR22 Audio Interface using a microphone cable that has an XLR/0.25 in. jack connection. The UR22 has +48 V phantom power. When I turn on the phantom power the red light that is supposed to light up doesn't light up.…**
A: Take a look at the Behringer Xenyx 302 interface/mixer.  If you look it up on the Behringer site and scroll down a bit, you'll see that the company pairs that interface with this particular microphone.  You might consider purchase of the interface ($50) or make sure that the specs for the interface are part of the configuration you're currently using with this condenser mic.  (If you purchase the interface from Amazon, you can return it (within 30 days) if it doesn't deliver the expected results.)
