AKG Acoustics C12VR/SP
Product Description
Same as the C12VR but comes in a factory matched set for stereo micing purposes. Supplied with two of each accessory and serialized frequency response charts.
* 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
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.
The 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.
Specifications: Polar pattern cardioid, omnidirectional, figure-eight, and 6 intermediate positions, remotely selectable Frequency range 30 to 20,000 Hz Max. SPL 128/138/148 db (k=3%) Equivalent noise level (CCIR 468-3) 32 db Equivalent noise level 22 dB-A Signal/noise ratio (A-weighted) 72 dB Preattenuation pad 10 dB, 20 dB, selectable Bass filter 6 dB/octave at 100 Hz, 12 dB/octave at 130 Hz Impedance 200 Ohm Recommended load impedance >1000 ohms Connector 12-pin DIN Cable 10 m (33 ft.) Net weight 680 g / 24 oz.
