AKG Acoustics has debuted the Perception 400, a multipattern, large-diaphragm condenser microphone.
The company says the Perception 400 has selectable cardioid, omni and figure-eight pickup patterns with switchable 10 dB pad, switchable bass cut filter, shock mount and metal case. It features two separate back-to-back, one-inch diameter vibrating surface capsules with gold-sputtered foil diaphragms; and 20 – 20,000 Hz response and high 145 dB max SPL capability at less than 0.5 percent THD.
Additional highlights include a zinc/aluminum alloy metal chassis with a stainless steel, dent-resistant grille screen to protect the capsules. Like the Perception 200, the 400 comes in a metal-framed “sound tools” carrying case with a screw-on, spider-type shock mount.
