The AKG C636 WL1 Condenser Vocal Microphone Headfrom AKG C636 WL1 Condenser Vocal Microphone Headfeatures a cardioid polar pattern and a 24-carat, gold-plated capsule that is housed in a rugged zinc alloy housing. It is designed to fit the DMS800 and WMS4500 wireless microphone system (sold separately) for meeting the demand of today's top vocal performers.

This microphone sits on an absorbent rubber bearing and has a double shock suspension system that reduces handling noise. It is built tough and the protection system consists of the grille, a foam layer behind the grille, and a magnetically attached mesh layer on top of the capsule. It is made with hand-selected components and manually tuned for a transparent sound.

Additionally, the C636 WL1 head retains the spirit of the classic AKG C535 condenser microphone, while being re-engineered to meet today's vocal performance standards.

Uniform, Cardioid Polar Pattern    24-Carat Gold-Plated Capsule    Double-Shock Suspension System    Multilayer Pop Noise Protection    Rugged Zinc Alloy Housing    Spring Steel Grille

By keeping the C535 capsule sound untouched, the C636 captures your sound unfiltered and uncompressed.

Uniform cardioid polar pattern throughout the entire frequency spectrum combined with a specially designed suspension and grille for the capsule essentially eliminates feedback.

Highly absorbent rubber and an adjustable balancing network cancels

vibrations over a wide frequency range, reducing unwanted handling noise.

A 3-layer protection system prevents unwanted pop noises, providing singers with a clear, plosive-free vocal performance.

The robust, zinc alloy housing with a spring steel grille and 24-carat gold-plated

capsule, makes the C636 extremely rugged and durable.

Q: 1. Can the mic stand adapter (mount) be purchased separately? I have an older akg perception that I'm assuming is compatible.

A: We do not have the stand adapters seperatrely but we do have shock mounts that would fit.

Q: 3. Based on the description showing stage use , we bought two of these and put them on the edge of our stage facing the audience in the hopes of a decent ambient pick-up. They are picking up way too much from the rear and the manual actually says that they are either super cardiois or hyper cardioid which would not have as much rear rejection as a plain cardioid. Am I misunderstanding something or can you please advise us on a more appropriate selection? We are a church with a fair amount of stage volume and need these primarily for in-ear ambiance and the results were practically no vocals and little audience with mostly stage music from drums and guitar amps.Thank you

A: There are adapters in the box. One has holes to skew the response curve to voice. There is another to reject background sound. I think it comes with it installed. Did you check your db settings? It has a switch to drop the output.

Q: 4. Will this mic work properly off 15v church fixed phantom power?

A: This mic will operate properly on a range of 44 to 52 Volts phantom power.

Q: 5. I need a hypercardioid mic for interior dialogue recording on a boom pole. Is it possible the this mic can deliver in such a task? Or is it too heavy. Too bulky? Thanks.

A: I use this mic in our studio on a C-stand and hand held for street interviews. I do have some shoots coming up in August where I am going to purchase a boom for it. It's definitely bulkier than a choir mic, but I love the sound (don't forget to put the hypercardioid adapter on it that comes in the box).Hope that helps,Jeff

Q: 6. How can i get a replacement Mic Stand Adapter for P170?

A: It's an extremely common size. Almost any mic holder for a small diaphragm mic will work.

Q: 7. Is this mike usable as on-camera microphone?

A: No it is not usable on-camera. You would hear every bump and noise. For video you would use a stable boom mic stand. Also if you are using this where there is a breeze you would need a wind cover.

Q: 8. Will the receiver fit in a half rack case?

Q: 10. what microphone stand would you request for this microphone?

A: The AKG P120 Cardioid Condenser Microphone can be used with a variety of different microphone stands.
