Biamp CM1-6WS
Miniature High-Output Supercardioid Ceiling Microphone
The CM1-6WS is a compact, high-output ceiling microphone with a supercardioid pickup pattern that narrows the zone of highest sensitivity for even tighter focus on talkers. The tighter pattern helps in acoustically challenging or noisier rooms by reducing pickup of reflections and off-axis sound, keeping captured speech clear when participants sit at a distance from the microphone.
A slim six-inch gooseneck positions the capsule just below the ceiling for reliable voice capture, and installation is quick through a single small hole. The three-pin mini-XLR output connects to a mixer or DSP that supplies phantom power, making the CM1-6WS a clean, unobtrusive choice for conferencing, distance learning, courtrooms, and ambient room miking.
