This large-diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed on the basis of
feedback from sound engineers who have used the C 12, C 12 A, C 414 EB,
C 414 B-ULS, C 414 B-TL II, and C 414 XL II microphones in recording studios
around the world for years. Using hand-selected state-of-the-art, reliable compo-
nents as well as advanced manufacturing processes, the C 214 meets the high-
est professional standards and will withstand severe handling in the recording
studio for many years.
The electronic circuitry of the microphone has been redesigned to achieve maxi-
mum dynamic range and a flat frequency response. Low self-noise and high head-
room add up to a dynamic range of 143 dB (A-weighted).
The transducer element uses advanced backplate technology and a diaphragm
that is gold-sputtered on one side only to prevent local shorting to the back elec-
trode even at extremely high sound pressure levels.
The all-metal body ensures efficient rejection of RF interference so you can use
the microphone near transmitter stations, along with wireless microphones or
other communications equipment.
