The CAD Audio GXL1800 is a large format side address studio condenser microphone. It sits in CAD Audio's GXL line of studio condensers, built for detailed vocal and acoustic instrument recording where clarity and low self-noise matter.
Frequency response spans 20 Hz - 20 kHz. Sensitivity is rated at -27dBV (45.8mV @ 1Pa), and it handles peaks up to 124 dB, so loud sources will not push it into distortion. Self noise is just 16 dBA, quiet enough for close recording work. In the studio it earns its place on vocals, acoustic instruments, and voiceover, and it is equally at home in a project room or a broadcast chair.
Victory Musical Instruments is an authorized CAD Audio dealer. Orders ship free, Miami locals can pick up same day, and our team uses and installs this gear, so if you are not sure it fits your application, ask us before you buy.
