C 414 XLII LEGENDARY SOUNDS • The successor of the famous C 414 B-TLII• Delivers the unique sonic signature of the highly sought after AKG C 12• Enables lead vocals and solo instruments to be placed even in a dense mix• Unrivalled up-front sound also in distant miking applications like classic music recording or drum ambience miking PEAK HOLD PEAK HOLD The polar pattern indicator LEDs also provide an overload indication. With conventional peak indicators, overload peaks lasting only for a fraction of a second may easily escape your attention. The new peak hold function makes sure you will notice even the shortest overload peak: If the output level of the microphone exceeds the overload limit, the currently active polar pattern LED will change to red for about 3 seconds.
