AKG C568B
AKG C568B Description:
High directivity and wide frequency response in a relatively short shotgun make this microphone a perfect tool for theater, sound reinforcement, and film/TV applications.
Due to its compact and lightweight design, the C 568 B is ideal for camera mount applications. Below 500 Hz it functions as a hypercardioid microphone; above 500 Hz the acoustic interference tube introduces increasing directivity.
A switchable 12 dB/octave 120 Hz bass cut filter effectively suppresses rumble and wind noise.
The rugged, all-metal body contains the built-in preamp.Phantom powering (9-52 V) required; foam windscreen and stand adapter included.
