Akg C 1000 S Condenser Microphone

This article will review the AKG C 1000 S Condenser Microphone.

The AKG C 1000 S Condenser Microphone is amongst the best selling condenser microphones around.

It is filled with value and features which is a great price. The C 1000 is an excellent sounding microphone for vocal applications. It is manufactured in Vienna, Austria and has a unique feature in that if the user does not have available phantom power on their mixing console, the microphone opens in the grille end and possesses an area inside which you could place a 9 V battery for powering the condenser element.

Another nice feature of this microphone is that you may change the polar pattern in the mic from its standard cardioid pick up pattern to your hyper-cardioid pattern using the addition in the PPC 1000 that is a polar pattern converter which, when placed on the capsule beneath, changes the get pattern from cardioid to hyper-cardioid. The value of the is a hyper-cardioid pattern, enables you to stay keep your distance the microphone when you're singing it also reduces the pattern with a smaller size and so eliminates any possibility of feedback if monitors are present on the stage in the Jacksonville Landing Live Performance - http://Youtu.be/qpLHL7ZcxKI - sound reinforcement application. The polar pattern converter comes shipped while using mic.

Also with the microphone, AKG gives a presence booster so when the user really wants to have an additional boost of presence within the 5 - 9 kHz range, whether it's needed over a vocal or even a stringed instrument for a little bit more harmonic accent, this little device will add more presence towards the higher frequency range.

The AKG C 1000 S Condenser Microphone can be supplied with a wind shield for outdoor vocal use plus a mic clip and in addition comes with a robust, sturdy case for transit.

As mentioned, it really is one of AKG's most favored microphones for apparent reasons. Lots of features, a very reasonable price, which great AKG sound that many sound professional knows and loves due to the warmth. The C 414 XLS boasts a recessed on/off switch to help you not turn it off by accident which would be a bad thing to complete as it really is a condenser. It is, to get a condenser, really quite solid in the construction as I have battered mine around a reasonable bit with not abandoned me yet over a few years. I do claim that you be more careful with yours though.
