One
of the most famous tube microphones in the history of recording was the
legendary AKG C 12. In spite of vast changes in microphone engineering,
these microphones in good condition are still very much sought after
and extremely expensive. Therefore, studio engineers vigorously
demanded a rerun.
Features
- Recreates the legendary C 12 tube microphone
- Nine remotely selectable polar patterns from omnidirectional to figure-eight
- Complete with many useful acces-sories and aluminum carrying case
The AKG C 12 VR is an exact replica of the original
C 12, from the cap-sule sound to the original 6072A vacuum tube. The
only difference is that its self noise and some components were
optimized to meet the current state of the art. No less than nine
remotely selectable polar patterns, the legendary large-diaphragm
capsule, and an original 6072A vacuum tube provide a sound that is
simply beyond words.
The C 12 VR comes complete with an aluminum carrying case, power supply, cable, windscreen, and spider type shock mount.
