Description

A stage and studio essential. The AKG C414XL II Condenser Microphone is a world class microphone for studio recording broadcasts and live performances offering five selectable polar patterns to ensure perfect sonic performance in any application. The C414XL II microphone has a large diaphragm capsule that delivers a slight increase in presence and outstanding spatial reproduction similar to the iconic AKG C12 microphone from 1953. A peak hold LED provides a visual indication when your level is clipping and accurately indicates even the shortest overload peaks. The included H85 shock mount minimises mechanical and handling noise while the PF80 pop filter helps to eliminate plosive sounds and sibilance.

Condenser Microphones

Condenser microphones use a sensitive capsule design that can capture fine detail, fast transients and a broad frequency range. They are common choices for vocals, acoustic instruments, overheads, room work and studio recording, but their sensitivity also makes room sound and handling more noticeable. Compare large- or small-diaphragm construction, polar pattern, self-noise, maximum level, pad and high-pass options, and whether phantom power is required. The right condenser depends on the source, placement and acoustic environment, not simply on whether the microphone is marketed for studio use.
