With an improved feature set devised to satisfy the most demanding engineers the AKG C 414B XLS carries the legacy of the famed C 414B/TLII microphone. The sonic character of the original C 414B/TLII remains unaltered, however added features include improved sensitivity, low self noise, 5 switchable polar patterns, 3 bass cut filters and improved capsule suspension. In addition, colored LED's provide visual indication of polar pattern, bass cut frequency and proper microphone positioning. The polar pattern LED will dim when signal is considered too far off-axis for the perspective pattern.

AKG's 1 inch CK12 dual diaphragm is directly modeled after the legendary C12, combined with solid-state transformer-less circuitry, the dual diaphragm design provides an even greater combination of warmth and presence. The provided switchable polar patterns are omni-directional, wide cardioid, cardioid, hyper-cardioid and figure eight, making the microphone suitable for recording single or multiple singers, a vast array of instruments and ambiance.
