  • Detail

    The AKG C414 XLS condenser microphone offers pristine sonic quality and unparalleled versatility. The latest incarnation of AKG's renowned C414, used in studios worldwide for over 50 years, the C414 XLS provides reference-level performance and nuanced detail. With nine switchable polar patterns��including cardioid, omnidirectional, figure-eight and hypercardioid��it captures any acoustic source with stunning realism.

    Pristine Sonic Reproduction and Wide Dynamic Range

    Featuring a 1" dual-diaphragm capsule and transformerless output stage, the C414 XLS offers a frequency range of 20Hz to 20kHz, sensitivity of 23 mV/Pa and high SPL handling up to 158dB. Its ultra wide dynamic range of 152dB ensures accurate reproduction of signal peaks and subtle details. A selection of three bass cut filters and pre-attenuation levels provide precise tonal shaping. For live and installed applications, the Lock Mode disables all controls to prevent accidental changes.

    Nine Polar Patterns for Total Creative Control

    With nine polar patterns��omni, wide cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid, figure-eight and four intermediate stages��the C414 XLS is ideal for any recording or sound reinforcement need. Easily switch between patterns to capture a choir, acoustic ensemble or drum overhead. The intermediate patterns provide subtle variations for finetuning the microphone's directionality and proximity effect.

    Rugged, Roadworthy Design

    Despite its precision design, the C414 XLS is built to handle life on the road. Its double-mesh grille protects the capsule from moisture, dust and plosives. A peak hold LED alerts users to overload peaks for optimal gain staging. The included spider-type shockmount reduces handling noise, while the thick-walled carrying case protects your investment during transport and storage.
