The AKG C568EB Shotgun Mic is currently retailing at GBP 449 and it is out of stock. Available to be delivered to you by post direct (some charge may apply).The team at Mic Pro think that AKG nailed it with the AKG C568EB Shotgun Mic.

 

 High directivity and wide frequency response in a relatively short shotgun make this microphone a perfect tool for theater, sound reinforcement, and film/TV applications.

Due to its compact and lightweight design, the C 568 B is ideal for camera mount applications.

Below 500 Hz it functions as a hypercardioid microphone; above 500 Hz the acoustic interference tube introduces increasing directivity.

A switchable 12 dB/octave 120 Hz bass cut filter effectively suppresses rumble and wind noise. The rugged, all-metal body contains the built-in preamp. Phantom powering (9-52 V) required; foam windscreen and stand adapter included.

RECORDING EQUIPMENT

Recording Equipment encompasses the essential tools used to capture, process, and produce audio in both professional and home studios. This includes microphones, audio interfaces, mixers, preamps, monitors, and recording software, all working together to achieve high-quality sound. Whether for music, podcasts, voiceovers, or film, recording equipment is key to transforming performances into polished, professional audio.

Shotgun

Shotgun Microphones are highly directional microphones designed to capture sound from a specific area while rejecting noise from the sides and rear. Featuring a long, narrow pickup pattern, they are ideal for film, television, and field recording where isolating audio from a distance is crucial. Commonly mounted on boom poles or cameras, shotgun mics are the go-to choice for dialogue and focused sound capture in noisy or outdoor environments.

Studio Microphones

Studio Microphones are designed for professional recording environments, delivering high-fidelity sound capture with exceptional detail and clarity. They are used for vocals, instruments, voiceovers, podcasts, and more, offering a wide range of pickup patterns and sensitivities to suit different recording needs. Studio mics often prioritise low noise, wide frequency response, and natural sound reproduction, making them a key tool in any recording setup.
