AKG Acoustics C 535 EB User Manual

C 535 EB

Condenser Microphone

Description

The C 535 EB is a cardioid handheld condenser
microphone with many of the characteristics of AKG’s best
studio condensers. The response is quite uniform, but with a
slight 2-dB rise in the 7 to 12 kHz range to give added
presence to vocalists. A four-position switch on the
microphone provides a useful combination of output and low
frequency level contours, including a broad bass roll-off for
close-in instrumental use and a sharp 100-Hz cut for vocal
application. 9 to 52 Vdc phantom powering is required for
operation.

Features

• Versatile condenser microphone
for studio and vocal applications

• Broad 2-dB rise between 7 and
12 kHz enhances vocal projection

• 4-position switch tailors output
level and bass response as needed

• Operates on phantom powering
from 9 to 52 Vdc
