Brings Out the Essence of Your Recorded Vocals
At Sweetwater, we know what professionals in the audio world look for in their microphones: clarity, precision, sensitivity to the kind of nuances in a voice or an instrument that make a performance or recording special. AKG microphones do just that. They're legendary for their excellent response and the quality treatment they give sound. The C4000B is the latest in AKG's line of large diaphragm, premium microphones. Selectable polar patterns make the C4000B suitable for both studio and stage, while the optimized transformerless output stage ensures accurate low frequency and self-noise so low it's practically non-existent. With the C4000B you'll capture open, clear, and natural highs along with smooth lows - perfect for miking vocals, strings, brass or woodwinds, to name just a few applications. All electric contacts are hard gold-plated to prevent aging and corrosion, and a two-part, heavy-duty body protects the internal components from damage due to mishandling. A beautiful microphone with an even more beautiful sound.

• High sensitivity
• Extremely low self-noise
• High SPL capability for wide dynamic range
• Three polar patterns switchable on the microphone: omni, cardioid, and hypercardioid
• Preattenuation pad switchable on the microphone for added SPL capability
• Bass cut filter switchable on the microphone for suppression of low-frequency noise
• Universal phantom powering to DIN/IEC standards (12, 24, or 48 VDC)
• Integrated wind and pop screen for high rejection of wind and pop noise
• Complete with H 100 spider type shock mount
• W 4000 external wind and pop screen for extremely difficult miking situations included

Customer Reviews
 Why is this mic not even more popular?  
by Donn from Albuquerque, NM, June 29, 2007
Music Background:  Owner, On Fire Productions, music production studio


“I just don't get it. This is an absolute premium vocal mic that has not yet gotten the credit it deserves. As a pro studio owner, I have some heavy hitting mics, such as a U87 and even better, a U67. This mic stacks up. In the world of mics that are so sensitive to the 5-8k range they pick up every sound the mouth can make (many unwanted!), mics with a beefy vintage sound and smooth top end...” Read More
