Schoeps RC 1200 Active Extension Tube

Active Extension Tubes are used between a Colette series microphone's capsule and amplifier. This provides an unobtrusive way to place a microphone capsule directly in front of a vocalist or announcer without blocking anyone's view. This type of extension tube has become the standard for miking orchestras in television and video productions.

The RG 8 swivel clamps the Colette tube onto a vertical support rod, allowing adjustment of the tube's height and angle. The angle of the capsule relative to the tube is adjustable independently from 0° (fully extended) to 120°. This gives the Colette tube a very wide range of applications.
