Emotion Series
Performance microphone with a frequency response designed specifically for lead and backing vocals. Wind noise and sibilance are eliminated by an integrated wind and pop screen. The outstanding performance is obtained by means of the newly developed AKG Varimotion diaphragm technology and a frequency-independent supercardioid polar pattern that provides very effective feedback suppression. With the Doubleflex anti-vibration system handling noise is all but eliminated. Comes complete with vinyl carrying case and stand adapter. S version has on/off switch.
D 770
The D 770 is a dynamic on-stage microphone. Its frequency response is shaped especially for instrumental/vocal performance. The wide frequency response is slightly boosted in the mid and high frequency ranges for a crisp instrumental sound (wind instruments, mouth-organ, guitar amps, percussion instruments and backing vocals) and for better speech intelligibility.
The outstanding performance is obtained by means of the newly developed AKG Varimotion diaphragm technology and a frequency-independent cardioid pickup pattern that provides very effective feedback suppression. Special Doubleflex shock mounted transducer system. Comes complete with vinyl carrying case and stand adapter.
D 660 S
The D 660 S dynamic microphone has been developed specifically for miking speech, vocals, and instruments on stage, and for Karaoke and home recording applications. The transducer element of the D 660 S has been designed for use with both sound reinforcement systems and cassette or home studio recorders. Neutral low and mid frequency response combined with a 6 dB presence boost between 4 and 8 kHz ensures a smooth sound and excellent intelligibility.
D 440
The D 440 is a cardioid dynamic microphone. It has been designed primarily as an instrument microphone for rough onstage use on percussion instruments, guitar amps, wind instruments etc. The wide frequency response of the D 440 that slightly favors the midfrequency and treble regions ensures good intelligibility. The term "cardioid polar response" means that the D 440 is most sensitive to sound arriving from in front of it, less sensitive to sound arriving from the sides, and least sensitive to sound arriving from the rear. This polar pattern is virtually the same for all frequencies ("frequency independent"). A shock absorbing wire-mesh outer grille and massive plastic housing protect the the transducer system from damage. The outer steel wire mesh grille and a layer of a special textile material form a very effective windscreen against pop and wind noise.
The D 440 features a standard 3-pin male XLR type connector. This connector type is internationally standardized so that you can connect the microphone to the rest of your equipment using any commercial microphone cable with a female 3-pin XLR type connector. The integrated stand adapter provides a convenient way to fine align the microphone with the instrument. The supplied H 440 clamp lets you mount the microphone directly on a snare drum, tom tom, or similar percussion instruments.
D 550
The D 550 is a cardioid dynamic microphone. It has been designed primarily as a bass instrument microphone for rough onstage use on bass drum, tuba, trombone, bass amps, etc. The wide frequency response of the D 550 that slightly favors the low frequency and treble ranges ensures a very powerful sound and good intelligibility. The term "cardioid polar response" means that the D 550 is most sensitive to sound arriving from in front of it, less sensitive to sound arriving from the sides, and least sensitive to sound arriving from the rear. This polar pattern is virtually the same for all frequencies ("frequency independent").
