User manual AKG CK 63-ULS

[. . . ] The AKG staff of engineers have concentrated their efforts and know-how to produce a microphone which is equal to and, in fact, deserving of the pristine transmission qualities of Digital Technology. The electronics of the new microphones are a completely new departure, and the key to the digital-level performance of the microphone. [. . . ] Otherwise, this associated equipment will overload before the maximum overload point of the microphone has been reached. Particular advantage when using the C 480 B with the CK 69-ULS shotgun capsule which normally is used relatively far from the sound source so the wanted sound level at the microphone will be comparatively low. The incorporated bass-cut filter reduces the risk of distortion at low frequencies. This feature is especially useful in combating wind noise or stage floor vibration. The slope of the bass-cut filter is more than 12 dB/octave, the cut-off frequency may be set to 70 Hz or 150 Hz. Interference when the microphone is used in close proximity to transmitter stations or in conjunction with wireless microphones or other communication equipment. Cleaning hints All metal surfaces may be safely cleaned from time to time with methylated spirit or alcohol. The foam windscreen should be occasionally soaked in a nonaggressive detergent/water solution and will be ready for use after drying. If you want to learn more about microphones and their applications, get a copy of "MICROPHONES: technique & technology" by Norbert Pawera. The book is published by "Arsis Baedeker und Lang Verlags GmbH" and available at your local music shop. Both studio and "onstage" applications are discussed in detail. Powering The C 480 B preamplifier may be powered in phantom technique according to DIN 45596. [. . . ] Specifications subject to change without notice.
