CAD M179
Variable Pattern Externally Biased Condenser

The CAD M179's continuously variable pattern control allows the blending of patterns from omni to hypercardioid to figure eight. SImply "dial in" your desired pattern for the greatest flexibility in live and recording situation.

A unique combination of vintage design and modern electronics, the M179 features a dual sided, externally biased capsule with a gold sputtered 1.1" diaphragm. It has a high speed, low noise operational amplifier head amp, coupled with a new discrete high efficiency power supply circuit. This results in incredibly low noise, low distortion and fast transient response.

The M179 will even work with 24-volt phantom supplies! It also features a non-capacitive 20 dB pad switch and an 80 Hz high-pass filter.

Connector: Three pin male XLR type.
