Whether you're recording music, podcasts, or interviews, CM–15 ensures a clean and transparent sound with minimal handling noise thanks to its precision engineering.
Despite its pocket-sized build, the CM–15 is fitted with a premium 1-inch diaphragm capsule, crafted by Peluso, and an ESS Sabre analogue to digital converter. It’s built for creators who demand uncompromised sound quality on the move. With three adjustable gain levels, an ultra-low distortion amplifier, and an internal 10-hour battery, the CM–15 is ready to support you through sessions both in and out of the studio. Compact yet powerful, it offers professional-grade results wherever inspiration strikes.
