The AKG C414 XLS Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone is a multi-pattern microphone that offers a choice of nine polar patterns for the perfect sonic capture. For live-sound applications and permanent installations, the C414 XLS is engineered for the highest linearity and neutral sound.
With three attenuation levels (-6,-12,-18dB), you can use this microphone for close-up recording or high-output sources of up to 158dB SPL. Three different switchable bass-cut filters are included to reduce wind noise, subsonic noise or proximity effect. An overload warning with audio peak hold LED allows you to detect the shortest audio peaks.
The main features of the AKG C414 XLS Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone include:
I’ve wanted this mic for over a year now, but could never find a good price. That’s why it was a pleasant surprise to be a first time Music Store professional shopper and find the perfect price and quick delivery. I only had a 4 day window for delivery and they made it in time.
My all time favourite recording microphone, and I now actually own one! Great sounding, beautifully made, and a good price! Great service as always from DV247.
