Rockin’ Patent – Austrian Audio GmbH’s “Condenser Microphone”

US Patent No. 10,602,280– Austrian Audio GmbH – Condenser Microphone - Patents Rock - Russell IP
  • Rockin’ Patent®: US Patent No. 10,602,280
  • Filed: 22 March 2019
  • In the name of: Austrian Audio GmbH
  • Title: Condenser Microphone
  • What’s claimed: ”A condenser microphone, comprising: at least one diaphragm; at least one electrode associated with the diaphragm; at least one annular insulator holding the electrode; at least one diaphragm ring holding the diaphragm; and a retaining ring that in cooperation with the annular insulator secures the diaphragm ring, the diaphragm, and the electrode; wherein the retaining ring consists of a ceramic material.”
  • Why this patent rocks: This patent relates to Austrian Audio’s GmbH’s CC8 carotid condenser microphone, for use on stage and in studio. The new condenser capsule has a micron-thick, gold-coated, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) diaphragm. Austrian Audio states that the “capsule and transformerless output gives the CC8 a remarkably linear frequency response, handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL) of up to 156 dB” without distortion. For a more detailed overview of the specifications, see here.
