AKG C414BXLS Multi Pattern Condenser Microphone

AKG C414BXLS Multi Pattern Condenser Microphone
With the introduction of the NeXt Generation C 414 B-XL models, AKG sets new benchmarks for useful features, improved technical specifications, ease of use and available accessories. All of these improvements are answers to requests from ever-demanding recording studios, broadcast stations and concert engineers, but with the basic sonic character of the legendary C 414 unaltered.

Additional features:

• High sound pressure level capability and wide dynamic range
• Completely immune to electrostatic and electro-magnetic interference from digital gear, computer monitors, etc. thanks to solid metal housing and transformerless output stage
• Three switchable bass cut filters and three pre-attenuation pads with LEDs for quick visual indication
• All switchable components operate in low impedance circuits for ultra-high reliability even in extremely humid conditions
• Optional R 414 remote control unit offers full control of all switchable parameters via standard microphone cable and 3-pin XLR-type connectors

• High sensitivity and extremely low self noise
• Five switchable polar patterns for placement and application flexibility
• Two-color LEDs provide quick visual indication of selected polar pattern and output overload
• Elastic capsule suspension greatly minimizes structurally-transmitted noise from chassis vibration
• H 85 professional shock mount/stand adapter, PF 80 external pop filter and W 414 X external windscreen.
