The CAD E100VP is a large-diaphragm variable pattern studio condenser microphone designed for vocal applications. It features a cardioid, figure-8, and omnidirectional polar patterns. The microphone includes low cut/high pass filter, pad, and polar pattern controls. Its frequency response ranges from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. The maximum sound pressure level is 127 dB (cardioid, at 1% THD), 137 dB (cardioid, pad engaged), 134 dB (omnidirectional, at 1% THD), 144 dB (omnidirectional, pad engaged), 128 dB (figure 8, at 1% THD), and 138 dB (figure 8, pad engaged). It has a 1x XLR 3-pin analog output and requires phantom power. The sound field is mono, the diaphragm size is 1" / 25.4 mm, and it is side address oriented with a -10 dB pad.
