Description
The AKG C1000 S is a multipurpose small-diaphragm condenser microphone for recording, live sound, ENG/EFP and video production. Its gold-sputtered capsule housing resists humidity, and without phantom power it runs up to 120 hours on two AA batteries.
A polar pattern converter switches it from cardioid to hypercardioid, and the presence boost adapter offers three frequency settings for speech and instruments. A bass-cut switch and a -10 dB pad handle close and loud sources.
