AKG C-414TL II Guitar Recording microphone

C-414TL II as a guitar recording microphone

Founded in 1947 in Vienna, Austria, AKG (formerly known as Acoustical and Cinema Equipment) released the vacuum tube condenser microphone “C12” in 1953, quickly establishing itself as a global brand, and other manufacturers began selling counterfeit products. It has become a representative of condenser microphones. Among the C414 series, which has inherited the lineage of the C12, the C-414TL II has improved response and characteristics by omitting the output transformer. Equipped with 4-step polar patterns, 3-step pad, and low-cut filter, allowing for a wider range of settings.

It has a slight frequency boost above 4 kHz, and the gorgeous and clear sound makes its presence stand out. The body design with its eye-catching golden grille and has high-quality texture. It is also nice that accessories such as custom cases, shock mounts, pop screens, windscreens, etc. are widely available. It is no exaggeration to say that the history of AKG is the tradition of the C414 series itself, and this machine that embodies that evolution. It will surely meet the expectations of players.

Two diaphragms, the parallel arrangement minimizes the proximity effect while enabling clear sound pickup over the entire frequency range.
The diaphragm is fixed with elastic suspension, supported by four rubber points to suppress movement noise.

With an SPL of 140dB, it can handle high sound pressure sources.
The sound of the guitar won’t be buried even when you sing along and has a solid reputation for recording acoustic guitars.
