CAD Professional Microphones has been in the microphone manufacturing business for over 75 years. CAD made history in the late 1980’s with the introduction of the first studio condensers to offer superior performance at an affordable price. The CAD name has become synonymous with innovative products, great value and superior sonic accuracy. Our new Trion Series incorporates sophisticated precision-machined, hand-assembled capsules, low self-noise and heavy-duty metal construction. Featuring a heritage design, Trion offers an aesthetically pleasing industrial profile and the great sound that CAD is renowned for.

Trion 6000

The Trion 6000 is a multi-pattern, externally biased, large dual diaphragm studio condenser microphone. The Trion 6000 incorporates a sophisticated, precision-machined, hand-assembled capsule. The low mass 1” gold vapor deposited, hand dampened diaphragms offer an articulate, rich and open sound ideal for studio vocals, choir, classical stringed instruments, piano and acoustic guitar. Exceptional sensitivity, low distortion and an extended frequency response make the Trion 6000 an outstanding performer in the digital realm. Discrete Class A electronics provide transparent, accurate sound reproduction. The transformer-coupled output ensures excellent RF immunity, cancellation of cable capacitance, and rejection of induced line noise. A 3-position polar pattern switch provides selection of omnidirectional, cardioid, or figure-8 polar patterns. The high-pass filter and the attenuation switches are located on the rear of the mic body and provide the versatility and flexibility demanded in the professional recording environment. Accurate sound reproduction, high SPL capability and superior sonic performance make this a valuable tool for the recording professional. 48V phantom power required.

Trion 7000

The Trion 7000 is a dynamic, dual-element, ribbon microphone. The Trion 7000 incorporates a sophisticated, precision-machined, hand-assembled aluminum ribbon capsule offering a rich, warm, classic sound. It is an excellent tool for recording vocals, brass and woodwinds, cello, acoustic bass as well as guitar and bass amps. It can be used in both live and studio applications wherever a warm, full-bodied tone is desired. The polar pattern of the Trion 7000 is naturally a figure-8. This means that the microphone is most sensitive in the front and the back, and least sensitive at the sides. The pronounced proximity effect associated with the Trion 7000 means that a strong “fattening effect” can be achieved at close distances. All these features make the Trion 7000 an excellent choice for a wide variety of live and recording applications.

Trion 8000

The Trion 8000 is a multi-pattern, externally biased, large dual diaphragm studio tube condenser microphone. The Trion 8000 incorporates a sophisticated, precision-machined, hand-assembled capsule. The low mass 1.12” gold vapor deposited, hand dampened diaphragms offer the smooth, rich classic tube sound ideal for studio vocal recordings in the digital realm. Exceptional sensitivity, low distortion and an extended frequency response make the Trion 8000 an outstanding performer. Discrete Class A electronics provide transparent, accurate sound reproduction. A 3-position polar pattern switch provides selection of omnidirectional, cardioid, or figure-8 polar patterns for versatility and flexibility demanded in the professional recording environment. Accurate sound reproduction and warm tube performance make this an excellent choice for the recording professional. 25ft 6-pin connector cable, and power supply are included. 115/230 VAC power required.

Whether it’s an 8 track with a CD burner, or a computer based system, your vocal and instrument recordings can count on the new CAD Trion Series to make your recordings count!
