## Description

AKG P420 High-Performance Dual Capsule True Condenser XLR Microphone, Black : desertcart.in: Fashion

Review: Versatile Studio Mic with Pro-Level Features at a Great Price - I’ve been using the AKG P420 in my home studio for 3 years now with my IPAD pro + Focusrite Amp, and it’s honestly one of the best value condenser mics I’ve come across. It’s incredibly versatile, thanks to its three selectable polar patterns—cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8—which makes it suitable for everything from solo vocals to room ambience and instrument ensembles. 🎙️ Sound Quality & Performance The sound is clean, warm, and detailed, with a flat frequency response that works well for vocals, acoustic instruments, and even drums. It handles high sound pressure levels (up to 155 dB SPL) without distortion, which is great for loud sources like guitar amps or percussion. 🔧 Build & Features The mic feels solid with its all-metal body, and it comes with a shock mount and a padded case, which is a nice bonus at this price point. The -20 dB pad and low-cut filter are super useful for managing proximity effect and background rumble. 🔊 Noise & Sensitivity It has low self-noise (15 dB-A), making it suitable for quieter sources too, though it performs best in a treated room. You’ll need phantom power and an audio interface with XLR input, as this is a true condenser mic.
