Thank you for purchasing the Samson C05 Condenser Microphone. The C05 con-

denser microphone brings a high level of accuracy and audio performance to vocal

miking applications.

The C05 is a hand held condenser microphone that excels in both live performance

and recording applications. Equipped with a linear frequency response for

superior reproduction, it is also designed to withstand high sound pressure

levels. Extremely sensitive, it employs a tight cardioid pattern to reduce feedback.

A special shock-mounted element minimizes handling noise and provides

additional protection.

Should your microphone ever require servicing, a Return Authorization number

(RA) must be obtained before shipping your unit to Samson. Without this number,

the unit will not be accepted. Please call Samson at 1-800-3SAMSON (1-800-372-

6766) for a Return Authorization number prior to shipping your unit. Please retain

the original packing materials and if possible return the unit in the original carton

and packing materials.

Features

The Samson C05 utilizes state-of-the-art microphone technology and is

engineered to the finest detail. Here are some of its main features:

• Tight cardioid polar pattern minimizes feedback problems and effectively

rejects signals not originating directly in front of the mic capsule.

• Extended range frequency response for optimum reproduction and

exceptionally clear, crisp sound.

• Special shock-mounting allows movement of the mic element to greatly

reduce handling noise.

• Rugged zinc alloy die-casting case ensures reliable performance in even the

most demanding environments.

• Lightweight and compact, the C05 can be mounted on any standard

microphone stand (using the included mic clip) or can be easily handheld

for long periods without inducing fatigue.

• Included foam-lined impact resistant carrying case for convenience when 

transporting three C05 microphones from venue to venue.
