C414 XLS

This large diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed on the basis of feedback
from sound engineers who have used the C12, C12 A, C12 B, C414 comb, C414 EB-P
48, C414 B-ULS, C414 B-TL II and C414 B-XLII microphones in recording studios around
the world for years.
Using advanced, reliable components that provide more functions in the same space, the
C414 XLS meets the highest professional standards and will withstand the tough handling
typically encountered in the recording studio and on stage for many years.
The electronic circuitry of the microphone has been redesigned to achieve completely
linear transfer characteristics of all electrical parameters. Extremely low self-noise and
high headroom add up to a dynamic range of approximately 134 dB (A-weighted) that is
far superior to figures quoted for conventional condenser microphones and other studio
equipment.
