A tiny studio microphone with a large-diaphragm capsule and groundbreaking features, CM–15 is part of Teenage Engineering's Field System.
It's a versatile studio-quality, ultra-portable microphone that comes with an integrated audio converter and built-in preamp. Add a 3.5mm jack and a 48V phantom powered mini XLR, and you have a truly one-of-a-kind battery-powered studio microphone.
Use the gain switch on the back for padding those mean drums, or the other way around. Battery-powered with an integrated high-quality audio converter and preamp, CM–15 is always ready to use wherever you like to record.
- Dynamic sound for any occasion: rich, transparent and natural, CM–15 captures clear and clean sound for professional audio productions, always ready to set up wherever you like to record.
- Pure craftsmanship: CM–15 is an incredibly versatile microphone, both inside and outside the studio. The large-diaphragm condenser capsule essentially means you get a better signal, so there is less noise and better depth of sound.
- Vocal recording: as a directional mic, CM–15 is perfect for the vocal booth, focused on picking up sounds in front of it.
- Instrument recording: with the flattest frequency response at a 50cm distance, CM–15 is perfect for capturing a variety of instruments, including your drum kit.
- Interview/podcast: CM–15 is great for podcasts and interviews, where high audio quality and portability is necessary.
- Field production: with a compact form factor and 10-hour rechargeable battery, it's a great tool for every ’trip’.
- Camera mic: when filming with a video camera, connect CM–15 through the line out to record synced audio directly.
- Multi-use connectivity: CM–15 has multiple outputs that can be used simultaneously: mini XLR, 3.5mm jack and USB-C. It can also be powered three ways, through phantom power, battery or USB-C, instantly detecting the right power source for your connected device.
CM–15 includes a standard 1/4" and 3/8" adapter, making it universally compatible with standard mic stands and tripods. The included adapter allows for a 90° to 110° tilt, so you can mount the mic onto a boom arm or to better record overheads. Use Tripod Mini for portable setups (available separately). The built-in table stand can be used to rest and angle the microphone on a surface.
CM–15 includes a mini XLR to XLR cable for connecting to your recording console. The 3.5mm jack can be used with headphones, while USB-C is used for digital audio interface connection, firmware updates and charging.
- 1-inch large-diaphragm capsule
- 10 hour rechargeable battery
- 48 V phantom power compatible pseudo-balanced min
