Congratulations on purchasing the Nady CM-2S Stereo Condenser Microphone. This superior, versatile microphone provides the

realistic spatial impact of a live sound field for many applications including stereo recording, ENG theater use, and FM stereo radio.

This manual covers the operation of the CM-2S microphone and the available optional accessories. To take full advantage of the

superb features of your microphone, and to enjoy long and trouble-free use, please read this user’s guide carefully.

The CM-2S uses a pair of closely-matched, wide range,

an X/Y stereo configuration. It features superb channel

separation; smooth, linear 30Hz-20kHz frequency response with

a switchable low-frequency roll-off; On/Off switch, high SPL

capability; extended dynamic range with ultra-low self noise;

crisp, clear transparent audio; and internal battery operation. All

this contained in a compact, lightweight design for easy camera

mounting

The CM-2S has two unbalanced, in-phase, low impedance stereo

outputs. The Left(+) signal is sent to Pin 2 and the Right(+) signal

is sent to Pin 3. Both Left and Right use a common Ground(-)

connection on Pin 1. Use the 19" stereo cable to connect to

3.5mm stereo inputs or the 10’cable to connect to two channels of

your mixing console or recording equipment.

Placing the mic closer to the sound source will create a more

pronounced stereo image while moving the mic further away will

lessen the stereo image and result in more room noise. Placing

a mic too close to a multi-voice source may result is some voices

being more dominant than others. Experiment with placement

for the best possible results. Use the low-cut filter switch to

reduce stage floor noise and undesired low frequencies.

Before operating, install an alkaline or mercury AA battery by

unscrewing, and sliding down, the lower portion of the handle to

reveal the battery compartment. The CM-2S is only designed for

battery use.
