AKG C411 L - Miniature Condenser Pickup Microphone with 8 Polar Patterns and 10Hz to 18kHz Frequency Response in Black Finish

The AKG C411 L is a miniature condenser pickup microphone designed specifically for capturing the authentic sound of acoustic string instruments such as guitars, mandolins, and violins. Offering a clear and natural reproduction of your instrument's sound, the C411 L ensures that your performance is recorded or amplified without any unwanted coloration. With its ultralight design and integrated condenser capsule, the C411 L provides a high-quality solution for musicians seeking precise, high-fidelity sound capture in both live and studio environments.

The C411 L features a pre-polarized condenser transducer housed in a sealed enclosure, which allows it to capture the sound of your instrument with exceptional clarity and detail. Its figure-eight polar pattern is ideal for picking up vibrations across the instrument's surface, ensuring that the sound is captured uniformly across a broad range of frequencies, from 10Hz to 18kHz. The result is a microphone that accurately translates the rich tonal quality of your acoustic instrument without distortion or loss of nuance.

One of the key benefits of the C411 L is its ultralight weight (only 18g/0.6oz), which ensures that the microphone does not affect the natural balance of the instrument when attached. It can be easily positioned on or near the bridge of the instrument using the included non-marking, solvent-free adhesive pad, making it a hassle-free solution for musicians who require reliable sound capture without compromising the acoustic integrity of their instrument.

The C411 L is equipped with a professional three-pin mini XLR connector that is designed to fit seamlessly with the body-pack transmitters of all AKG wireless microphone systems. This makes it an ideal choice for musicians performing on stage who require mobility without sacrificing sound quality. Additionally, the C411 L is phantom powered, requiring 9V to 52V for operation, which is easily supplied by compatible wireless transmitters or audio systems.

For those seeking a high-quality, low-profile microphone solution that preserves the natural sound of their string instrument, the AKG C411 L offers exceptional performance in a lightweight and unobtrusive design. It is perfect for both live performances and studio recordings, delivering a transparent, detailed sound without interfering with the playability or acoustics of the instrument itself.
