The Starlight Nylon is a Thin Body Electric Acoustic Classical Guitar. Starting with a one piece body of Swamp Ash or Honduras Mahogany a sound chamber is created by hollowing out the inside of the body. The sound chamber helps produce some acoustic tone unplugged which allows the player to hear the guitar in practice situations or other settings where plugging in is undesirable and adds a more natural tone when plugged in. Perfect for large band applications or any setting where more volume is needed. This guitar is available for SoundPure's Try-Before-You-Buy Program, so if you want to hear how it sounds with your gear, shoot us an email at Acoustics@SoundPure.com, or call us anytime at 919.682.5552.

From Schoeps Microphones

The KMITis the shotgun capsule for the modular Colette series. It is derived directly from the CMIT series and inherits its acoustic properties, such as the high directivity combined with low coloration of sound arriving from the side and the directivity that increases very evenly with frequency. In use, the KMIT, CMIT 5, and MiniCMIT can be interchanged without resulting in changes to the sound.

  • Rotationally symmetrical polar pattern
  • Steep, integrated low-cut filter (ca. 70 Hz)
  • Also suitable for music recording
  • Compatible with all Colette amplifiers | a digital shotgun is offered in combination with the CMD 42
  • based on CMIT generation D: capsule is moisture-resistant
  • Gray/Blue overlapping finish color melding two generations of industry-defining microphone series

The KMIT brings the unparalleled acoustic qualities of the CMIT series to the modular Colette series. It is compatible with all amplifiers of the Colette series, i.e., with the current analog amplifiers CMC 6 and CMC 1, as well as with the digital amplifier CMD 42. This means that SCHOEPS now offers a digital shotgun that can be controlled with the Remote App for the first time.

The characteristics of the KMIT capsule are only slightly dependent on the amplifier used. The sound of the KMIT is essentially the same with any amplifier as in the CMIT 5/MiniCMIT. The choice between CMC 6, CMC 1 U/L, or CMD 42 is consequently determined by the practical characteristics.

Frequency range 70 Hz - 22 kHz with CMC 1/CMC 6 70 Hz - 40 kHz with CMC 6xt/CMD 42
Low cut filter 70 Hz, 21 dB/Oct with CMC 1/ CMC 6 60 Hz, 22 dB/Oct with CMC 6 xt/CMD 42
Equivalent noise level (A-weighted) 14 dB
Equivalent noise level (CCIR) 24 dB
Maximum sound pressure level (THD < 0.5 %) 130 dB-SPL with CMC 6 133 dB-SPL with CMC 1 133 dB-SPL with CMD 42
Current consumption P48: 4,2 mA with CMC 6 3,1 mA with CMC 1
Length 122 mm Mono-Set with CMC 1 KV: 144 mm Mono-Set with CMC 1 L: 148 mm Mono-Set with CMC 1 U: 158 mm Mono-Set with CMC 6/CMD 42: 234 mm
