AKG C414 XLII Reference Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone!
The AKG C414 XLII is a versatile large-diaphragm condenser microphone of reference class. It initially offers five polar patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, wide cardioid, hypercardioid, and figure-8. Additionally, 4 intermediate settings can be selected. The current setting is displayed via an LED. Furthermore, there are three pad switches and three high-pass filters. This great flexibility allows the microphone to be perfectly adapted to various recording situations.
Its sound is open and highly detailed with a slight presence boost. The AKG C414 XLII is therefore excellent for recording vocals and solo instruments. The recordings cut through the mix well even without processing. Quiet passages are captured transparently and with nuance thanks to the extremely low self-noise. The high max SPL also enables drum recordings. Using it as an overhead microphone or for snare and hi-hat is especially recommended.
The AKG C414 XLII is also suitable for demanding live use. A lock mode prevents accidental changes to settings by locking the buttons. The peak hold LED reliably indicates electronic overload, even with the shortest signal peaks.
The microphone comes in a metal case with elastic mount, pop filter, windscreen, and dust bag. Additionally, the AKG C414 XLII is available as a specially matched stereo set.
