The AKG C 418 microphone is one of the most popular dedicated hypercardioid drum and percussion microphones, and for very good reason - it has a frequency response specially tailored for drum and percussion miking applications. Its hypercardioid polar pattern rejects bleeding from nearby instruments. Fantastic presence and penetrating transients for crisp attacks and deadly rim hits. The super grippy and durable clip secures the C418 mic securely to the edge of the drum and is capable of attaching to hoops that may be too thick for the built-in clip. The C418 shock-mounted capsule offers high mechanical noise rejection while resisting even the heaviest wand strikes. A two-angle adjustment arm ensures precise alignment of the microphone. / The name AKG has always been equated with the best in recording technology.
