AKG C1000S Condenser Mic

AKG C1000S Details

Famous for its flexibility, the affordable C 1000 S condenser microphone is ready for any assignment on stage or in the studio. Sometimes you have phantom power, sometimes you don't. Sometimes you need a cardioid pattern, other times greater directivity can help you minimize leakage or control feedback. Of course, you always need high sensitivity, high SPL handling with low distortion, and extended frequency response. ThatÕs why thousands of sound professionals rely on the C 1000 S as their "do-it-all" microphone.

Included PPC 1000 polar pattern converter allows quick changeover from cardioid to hypercardioid when a more directional pickup pattern is required, and powering is by internal 9 V battery or external phantom supply. Silent on/off switch is recessed to prevent inadvertent shutoff. The also included and attachable Presence Boost Adapter piece PB 1000 creates an emphasis of the higher frequencies around 5 to 9 kHz by about 3 to 5 dB, which not only improves the transmission of sibilances but may be also advantageous when recording instruments with a larger high frequency content in their audio spectrum. Rugged construction qualifies the C 1000 S for demanding road work, yet pristine condenser response and very low noise make it an excellent choice for recording in home/project studios. Stand adapter, foam windscreen, and case included.
