## Long description

The AKG C314 is a wired studio condenser microphone designed for professional recording and live applications. It delivers a full frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz and features a low input impedance for stable signal transfer. The microphone uses an XLR-3 interface and offers a combination of selectable polar patterns, a 1-inch dual-diaphragm capsule and integrated capsule suspension to capture detailed, natural sound with low self-noise. Built with a metal grille and durable housing in black, the C314 is suitable for studio, stage and portable setups where reliable, high-resolution audio capture is required.
Advantages
The C314 provides multiple polar patterns for flexible placement and instrument choices, allowing precise control over the recorded sound. Its computer-matched diaphragms and integrated suspension minimize coloration and mechanical noise, while the low self-noise preserves fine detail in high-dynamic recordings. An overload-detection LED, a 20 dB attenuation pad and a bass-cut filter make it straightforward to manage high SPLs and proximity effect. The all-metal grille and rugged housing offer protection and improved RF immunity for long-term use.
Suitable for
Vocal recording in project and professional studios
Acoustic and electric guitar miking

How to use
Connect the microphone to a microphone preamplifier or mixing console using a standard XLR cable and provide appropriate phantom power if required by your preamp. Select the polar pattern that best suits the source and environment, engage the 20 dB pad for very loud sources, and use the bass-cut filter to reduce low-frequency rumble or proximity effect. Monitor the overload-detection LED and adjust gain settings to avoid clipping. Mount the microphone using a stand or shock mount and position it according to instrument or vocalist technique for optimal capture of detail and balance.
Usage recommendations
For critical studio recordings, use the cardioid or figure-8 pattern depending on isolation and ambience needs. Employ the bass-cut filter for close-miked sources and enable the attenuation pad when recording high-SPL instruments. Regularly check connections and keep the grille clean to maintain consistent performance.
