The AKG Perception Live P3 S is a Cardioid Vocal Microphone with switch (40-18,000 Hz). The Perception P3 S is a high-performance dynamic microphone ideal for backing vocals, guitar and wind instruments. Its cardioid polar pattern picks up sound from in front of the microphone while reducing feedback and unwanted noise from behind. The Perception P3 S provides a sturdy metal case and wire-mesh grille for exceptional ruggedness. The microphone offers a convenient on/off switch for noiseless muting.
The main features of the AKG Perception Live P3 S include:
Cardioid polar pattern: optimum feedback rejection for trouble-free use on small stages
Integrated windscreen: for elimination of pops and wind noise
Rugged wire-mesh cap and sturdy die-cast metal body: withstand tough day-to-day stage use
24-carat gold-plated XLR connector: for optimum conductivity and resistance to corrosion
i am using this mic now for over 3 years within a professional studio and road setup, and Im very happy both with the quality of the sound as the manufacturing quality. Very resiliant against popping noises, but slightly less gain before feedback compared to the SM58. Nevertheless a decent recommendation for those who want a pro mic but dont want to spend the money of a SM58 for it.
