AKG C411 PP Dynamic Microphone
AKG C411 PP Dynamic Microphone
4,435 EGP
The AKG C411 PP is a miniature condenser vibration pickup microphone designed specifically for use with acoustic string instruments like guitars, mandolins, and violins. It is not a dynamic microphone as the name in the query might suggest, but a condenser (pre-polarized) type.Â
Key Features
- Vibration Pickup:Â Instead of picking up ambient sound pressure waves like a standard microphone, it uses a transducer to directly capture mechanical vibrations from the surface of the instrument, which helps to minimize feedback and background noise in live or studio settings.
- Clear Sound:Â Its integrated condenser capsule is designed to reproduce the natural sound of the instrument clearly and without coloration.
- Ultralight Design:Â Weighing only 18g (0.6oz) (without the cable and connector), it is designed to attach on or near the bridge of the instrument with an included non-marking, solvent-free adhesive pad without changing the instrument’s balance.
- Connectivity:Â The “PP” version features an integrated MPAV phantom power adapter with a standard 3-pin XLR connector for connecting to a mixer or audio interface that provides 9 to 52 V phantom power.
- Polar Pattern & Frequency Range:Â It has a figure-8 (bidirectional) polar pattern and a wide frequency range of 10 Hz to 18 kHz to capture fine musical details
