Product Description

Excellent all-purpose microphone that really shines on vocals and acoustic instruments, but works well on almost anything.

History

The AKG 414 Series of microphones continue a long tradition of excellence that starts with the legendary C12 tube mic, with its equally legendary CK 12 capsule able to produce nine polar patterns. The cylindrical C12 morphed into the smaller trapezoid shape of the C12A and C12B when the miniature Nuvistor tube was adopted. It morphed again into the C 412, the first of the FET designs, which had a choice of three polar patterns, and then into the C 414 comb, which had four patterns.
