The C3000 from AKG is a high-performance, large-diaphragm condenser microphone. Boasting a revamped design, premium construction, and professional-caliber features, this condenser mic has proven itself a cost-effective, durable workhorse with a sleek and classy finish that makes it look almost as good as it sounds. Ideal for capturing vocals and miking instruments including electric and acoustic guitars, drum overheads, and brass. For over 15 years the C3000 has been an industry standard for live sound applications and studio recording alike.

Craft your sound with the C3000’s features, such as an ultralow-noise electronic and switchable attenuation pad that equips it to handle a high dynamic range and up to 150dB of sound pressure levels. In addition, a switchable low-cut filter eliminates any proximity effect.

The C3000 is made to take on the challenges of both studio and stage, with a heavy-duty, die-cast metal construction that delivers maximum protection against the wear and tear of performance. Using AKG’s legacy of sonic expertise, the C3000 incorporates a gold-sputtered one-inch capsule.

Included with the AKG C3000 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone is a universal shock mount for minimizing handling noise.
