AKG PCC130 SW - Boundary Layer Microphone with Cardioid Polar Pattern and 50Hz to 20kHz Frequency Response in Black Finish

The AKG PCC130 SW is a professional-grade supercardioid boundary layer microphone designed for high-performance applications such as conferences, meetings, and public address systems. With its compact and low-profile design, the PCC130 SW fits seamlessly on small tables and is ideal for environments where space is at a premium but high-quality audio capture is still essential. The microphone delivers crystal-clear sound, even from distant voices, thanks to its low self-noise and very high sensitivity.

The supercardioid polar pattern of the PCC130 SW significantly reduces background noise and feedback, focusing on capturing the sound directly in front of the microphone while rejecting unwanted noise from the sides and rear. This makes it perfect for use in settings where multiple microphones are in close proximity, ensuring clear, intelligible speech without interference. Additionally, the microphone incorporates AKG's proprietary Phase Coherent Cardioid (PCC) technology, which further enhances speech intelligibility by delivering a natural and accurate representation of the voice.

One of the unique features of the PCC130 SW is its silent-operating programmable membrane switch. This switch can be configured for various modes: touch on/off, momentary on, or momentary off, providing users with flexible control over the microphone during use. The switch also features a high-intensity LED that lights up when the microphone is on, ensuring visual confirmation that the mic is active. This feature is particularly useful in environments where multiple microphones are in use, as it reduces the chances of accidentally leaving microphones on, which could cause unwanted noise or feedback.

In addition to its smart switching capabilities, the PCC130 SW includes a three-position bass-tilt switch, which allows users to tailor the microphone's low-end response. This helps reduce subsonic noise and ensures that the microphone captures clean, clear speech without the interference of unwanted low-frequency rumble. The bass-tilt switch adds flexibility, making the PCC130 SW suitable for a variety of environments, from professional recording studios to conference rooms.

The PCC130 SW is powered by 12 to 48 V phantom power, ensuring compatibility with most professional audio equipment. Its detachable cable makes installation and service easy, and the microphone's durable design ensures long-lasting performance. The PCC130 SW is finished in a sleek satin black, making it an aesthetically pleasing addition to any professional setup.
