1 Description
This large-diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed on the basis
of experience AKG and its customers have gained worldwide over the last
decades using models such as the C12, C414 B, and C3000. The C4000 uses
advanced, reliable components to meet the highest professional demands and
withstand even long-time, tough handling in the studio.
The C4000 provides the following features:
The dual-diaphragm transducer is a proven design that provides different
selectable polar patterns.
The diaphragms are made of a plastic foil that is gold-sputtered on one side
and prevents local shorts to the back electrode even at extremely high sound
pressure levels.
A switchable preattenuation pad allows you to increase the maximum SPL
capability of your C4000 by 10 dB for distortion-free close-in recordings.
Many mixing console input stages use small transformers that are susceptible
to overload, particularly at low frequencies. The C4000's pad prevents such
overload.
A bass cut filter that is switchable on the microphone body reduces lowend
distortion due to uncontrolled rumble or wind noise even further. The filter has
a 12 dB/octave slope starting at 100 Hz.
The all-metal die-cast body shields the microphone very effectively against
RF interference when using it near radio transmitters or together with wireless
microphones or other communication systems.
With its high SPL capability, minimum distortion, and resistance to extreme
temperatures and high humidity, the C4000 is a truly universal microphone. A
recessed switch on the microphone body allows you to select three different
polar patterns for a wide range of recording situations. Each of these polar
patterns is virtually frequency independent so that reflected sound, too will be
reproduced accurately and uncolored.
