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.

Realistic stereo recordings require microphones with outstanding performance and excellent quality. They also require performance consistency and accurate localization from the pair of microphones. Therefore, every factory-matched pair of C214s is created from thousands of individual microphones selected by AKG's sophisticated computer-aided matching method. The result is the highest possible correlation over the whole frequency range and virtually identical sensitivity for stunning, three-dimensional recordings.

Let the star stand out, not the microphone

The LC81 MD reference lightweight cardioid lavalier microphone makes a name for itself by not stealing the show. With a diameter of only 4.8mm, and a length of 10mm, it's one of the smallest cardioid lavaliers available. And at only 2g, the LC81 MD won't weigh down lengthy performances-in fact, the stars will hardly know that it's there. But that's just its size. When it comes to sound, its sensitive cardioid polar pattern picks up a wide range of frequencies-from bass to soprano-and provides flexibility in getting the best sound from the source. Placed close to the performer, it accurately picks up low-end frequencies; place it farther away for performances in a higher range. Available in four colors, the LC81 MD is inconspicuous on every user.

Control 67HC's well-controlled narrow coverage is ideal for improved voice intelligibility and musical clarity in high-ceiling venues or in rooms with difficult acoustics, such as convention centers, transit centers, exhibit venues and hotel atrium areas.
