The Sanken CMS-2 is a remarkably compact M-S stereo condenser mic built for capturing natural, detailed soundscapes. Using a cardioid “mid” capsule paired with a figure-8 “side” capsule, it delivers a flexible stereo image that can be precisely adjusted in post. At just 180 g, it’s one of the smallest and lightest stereo microphones available, making it ideal for location recording and discreet setups.
Sanken’s titanium push-pull capsule design provides a flat response from 20 Hz–18 kHz, high sensitivity, and the ability to handle up to 145 dB SPL without distortion. With low self-noise and wide dynamic range, the CMS-2 excels at everything from orchestral recording and acoustic ensembles to broadcast, film, and ambient capture.
Includes Pelican micro case and adapter cables.
