C414 XLII, C414 XLS specifications

The AKG Acoustics C414 is a celebrated series of large-diaphragm condenser microphones, widely recognized in both studio and live sound applications. Among the most popular models within this line are the C414 XLS and C414 XLII, each offering distinct characteristics suited for varying audio needs.

The C414 XLS is designed for versatile recording scenarios. Its frequency response spans from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, providing a clear and accurate representation of audio sources. The XLS features a large diaphragm that helps capture detailed high frequencies while maintaining a rich low-end response. One of its standout features is the switchable polar patterns, offering nine options: omnidirectional, wide cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid, and bidirectional, along with intermediate settings. This flexibility makes the XLS suitable for diverse recording environments, whether capturing vocals, acoustic instruments, or entire ensembles.

Meanwhile, the C414 XLII is tailored more specifically for vocals and solo instruments. It boasts a slightly modified frequency response that enhances the presence and clarity of the mid and high frequencies, making it a popular choice for studio vocal recording. The XLII is praised for its bright, open sound and ability to deliver a modern, polished quality, effectively capturing the nuances of vocal performances.

Both microphones employ AKG’s renowned advancements in transducer technology. The large, dual-diaphragm design not only contributes to their exceptional audio fidelity but also allows for precise pattern switching without altering frequency characteristics. Additionally, a low self-noise level ensures that even the most subtle sounds are recorded accurately, making them ideal for microphones used in quiet environments.

Another significant feature of the C414 series is the built-in attenuation pad and high-pass filter. The 20 dB pad enables the microphones to handle high sound pressure levels without distortion, providing flexibility when recording loud sources, such as drums or brass instruments. The high-pass filter effectively minimizes low-frequency rumble and handling noise, further enhancing clarity in recordings.

Durability is an essential aspect of the C414 series, as both models are built to withstand the rigors of professional use. With a rugged body design and high-quality components, these microphones deliver consistent performance day in and day out.

In conclusion, the AKG Acoustics C414 XLS and C414 XLII microphones are industry standards, thanks to their versatility, advanced technology, and exceptional sound quality. Whether you are a seasoned professional or an aspiring audio engineer, these microphones are sure to elevate your recordings to new heights.
