4 Installation and Connection

4.1Introduction All Discreet Acoustics Compact microphones are con-

denser microphones and therefore require a power supply (phantom power). The microphones have been designed for connection to microphone inputs with 9 to 52 V phantom power. To connect Discreet Acoustics Compact microphones to inputs without phantom power, refer to Section 4.4.

4.2CGN 99 … Gooseneck

Microphones Refer to figs. 9 and 12.

Note:

Refer to figs. 10 and 11.

1.Use the optional PS 3 F-Lock panel mount socket to install the microphone in a tabletop or an optional SA 60 stand adapter to mount the microphone on a floor or table stand.

For even better vibrational noise rejection, you can fix the microphone to the tabletop with an optional H 500 or H 600 shock mount.

2.Use a shielded cable to connect the microphone to a microphone input with phantom power.

AKG Acoustics has long been a leader in professional audio equipment, and their range of microphones reflects their commitment to quality and innovation. The CGN 99 series, including the CGN 99 H/L, CHM 99, CGN 99 C/L, CGN 99 C/S, and CGN 99 H/S, embodies the essence of their design philosophy, offering an array of features tailored to meet the demands of everything from live performances to studio applications.

One of the standout features of the CGN 99 series is its versatile polar pattern options. The microphones offer a variety of directional characteristics, allowing users to choose the best configuration for their specific needs, be it cardioid, hypercardioid, or omnidirectional. This versatility ensures optimal sound capture in diverse environments, from theaters to conference halls.

The CGN 99 microphones are renowned for their high sensitivity and low self-noise, which contribute to their clarity and detail in sound reproduction. This is particularly important for capturing vocals and instruments with precision. Additionally, the microphones are equipped with an integral pop filter, effectively minimizing unwanted plosive sounds that can occur during vocal performances. This feature enhances the overall quality of recordings or live sound without the need for additional processing.

Construction quality is another hallmark of the CGN 99 series. Built with durable materials, these microphones are designed to withstand the rigors of regular use, making them a reliable choice for touring musicians and on-location recordings. Their sleek, unobtrusive design also allows them to blend seamlessly into various settings, maintaining aesthetic appeal while delivering exceptional audio performance.

Another notable aspect of the CGN 99 series is their flexible mounting options. With various gooseneck lengths available, these microphones can be positioned in a way that best suits the acoustic space and user preferences. The adjustable mounting allows for dynamic adjustments during live presentations or recordings, ensuring that the microphone captures sound from the optimal angle.

Moreover, the CGN 99 series incorporates advanced technologies such as frequency response shaping and enhanced rejection of ambient noise. These features enhance the microphone's performance in challenging acoustical environments, ensuring that the primary source sound remains the focus.

In summary, the AKG Acoustics CGN 99 series microphones deliver outstanding audio quality, versatility, and durability, making them ideal for a wide range of applications in the professional audio field. Whether for live sound reinforcement, broadcasting, or studio recordings, these microphones set a high standard in acoustics, proving AKG's dedication to excellence in sound technology.
