“The CMD 42 unlocks so much flexibility and sonic quality that it has become my first choice Colette amplifier. I never want to be without it” 
Dustin Harris, Supervising Sound Editor

”Congratulations on a remarkable product! One that has had a revolutionary and inspirational influence on my work. The increased frequency range, low noise floor and extremely high headroom provide a distinct advantage over any other system I have for capturing audio. I can’t think of another piece of gear in the last 20 years that has had such a profound impact on everything I record.” 
Seph Lawrence, Veteran Game Audio Designer

"It is like stepping off a flight when all of a sudden your ears pop and the world becomes clear"
Paul Paragon, Production Sound Mixer

"We started a new film a week ago, and we've used the CMDs on 100% of it so far on two booms. Wow! What a revelation. They sound absolutely stunning. I am in love with them!
There were some romantic scenes where the cast were literally “breathing” their dialogue. I used gain levels that would have been unachievable on analogue mic preamps. The CMD's were simply silent irrespective of how much I pushed the gain, there was zero self noise (MK 41 capsules). We achieved some outstanding results on close mic’d low level dialogue. It was astounding.
We were starting a film in Tenerife/Saudi Arabia. We used them in +40 degree heat, in vibrating vehicles for long periods, in the desert during airborne sand storms, in humid sound stages. Not once did they let us down. They were bulletproof and not only did their sound quality deliver dialogue beyond the capability of an analogue mic, their build quality has filled me with incredible confidence. We could not have put them through a harder, more brutal and demanding test period in real world extremes of film making. The product simply delivered." 
Simon Hayes, Production Sound Mixer

Anwendung

Kompatible Aufhängungen und Windschutze:
Der CMD 42 ist exakt genauso lang wie ein CMC 6, insofern passen die meisten Aufhängungen und Windschutze genauso. Der CMD 42 ist lediglich 10 g schwerer als der CMC 6.
Eine Ausnahme: Da der untere Bereich des CMD 42 einen Durchmesser von 20 mm aufweist (CMC 6: 19 mm), muss für den CINELA COSI ein anderer "Holder" verwendet werden. Dieser hat die Bezeichnung "COSI-HLD-20-20" oder "COSI-HLD-CMC 1U".
