Tascam TM-60 Battery-Powered Condenser Microphone

Easily gets a precise, high-definition sound quality from a condenser microphone

TM-60 is a condenser-type microphone, which is quite different from the dynamic microphone which usually being used in live performances. The diaphragm operates due to the pneumatic vibration. Inside of a dynamic microphone, the voice coil operates with the diaphragm, which increases the weight of the entire part. On the other hand, the condenser microphone incorporates a diaphragm in the either side of the electrode in an electrical part referred to as condenser, realizing a lightweight structure. 

This allows excellent follow-up performance, greatly contributing to high-precision sound. Thus the mechanism to convert into electrical signals is completely different between the two: the dynamic microphones are powered by electromagnetic induction to obtain electrical signals, whereas the condenser microphones take out the potential difference between the condenser electrodes as a signal. To give the condenser the potential difference, power supply is required.

* The figure shows a diaphgram of typical condenser microphones. TM-60 is a condenser of back electret condenser type, which has a slightly different structure, but no specific difference is in the features.

Small diaphragm type easy to use for any instruments, for any purposes

Condenser microphones are largely divided into two categories according to the size of diaphragm: large diaphragm types, and small diaphragm types. The model such as TM-60 is categorized as a small diaphragm type. Its smooth frequency response is the characteristic of the small diaphragm types. The TM-60 has the frequency response which smoothly enhances its high end, where anybody can get a clear, crisp sound.

Various accessory lineups

A variety of convenient accessories are available.

• Operation and sound quality verified with TASCAM products

The microphone has been tested with the TASCAM audio interfaces as well as PORTASTUDIO for their functionality and sound quality. The audio samples of TM-60 with a few TASCAM products are available on our web page. Of course, the microphones can be used with any acoustic equipment that complies with a condenser microphone.
