The C 418 miniature condenser clip-on microphone has
a specifically tailored frequency response for drum and
percussion miking applications and is an alternative to
the C 419 for loud trumpets. Its hypercardioid polar pat-
tern rejects leakage from nearby instruments. A solid
clamp makes it easy to fix the microphone securely on the
instrument. The H 418 allows you to attach the microphone
on top hoops that may be too thick for the integrated
clamp. The C 418 shock-mounted capsule provides high
mechanical-noise rejection and is extremely ruggedly
built. A two-angle adjustment arm ensures precise
microphone alignment.
C 418 PP: For hardwire applications, with standard XLR
connector for phantom powering.
C 418L: With mini XLR connector for use with B 29 L bat-
tery operated power supply, MPA III L external phantom
power adapter, or AKG WMS bodypack transmitters.
