The AKG C214 is a versatile, large-diaphragm condenser microphone known for its detailed, clear sound, acting as a more affordable alternative to the C414, ideal for vocals and instruments with features like a switchable -20dB pad and bass-cut filter to handle loud sources and proximity effect, and uses a single, fixed cardioid pattern.Â
Key Features:
- Diaphragm:Â One-inch, edge-terminated large diaphragm capsule for detailed sound.
- Pattern:Â Fixed Cardioid pattern (picks up sound from the front).
- Versatility:Â Features a switchable 20dB pad for loud sounds (up to 156dB SPL) and a switchable 160Hz bass-cut filter for close miking.
- Noise Reduction:Â Integrated capsule suspension minimizes mechanical noise, with a double-mesh grille for RF immunity.
- Sound:Â Delivers powerful, natural tones with excellent detail, though its bright highs and potential for accentuated mouth noise can be polarizing.
- Ideal For:Â Vocals, acoustic instruments (like violin), drum overheads, electric guitars, and general studio/stage use
Engineered excellence
The C214 professional large-diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed as a cost-effective alternative to the high-end C414 family. Like the C414, the C214 offers a supreme one-inch capsule on an integrated suspension to reduce mechanical noise. A switchable 20dB attenuation pad allows recording of loud sources of up to 156dB SPL. A switchable bass-cut filter allows close-up recording with almost no proximity effect. The C214 captures sound by combining one capsule of the legendary C414 dual-capsule system and the patented AKG Back-Plate Technology, resulting in an outstanding performance close to the famous C414 XLII.
