The AKG CK 63-ULS capsule is designed for use with the AKG C 480 powering module. The capsule features a hyper-cardioid polar pattern, resulting in maximum pick up directly in front of the capsule, while providing adequate off-axis signal rejection. This results in high gain-before-feedback response and minimal noise due to ambiance. Wide frequency and sensitivity response ensures pristine audio reproduction. A maximum sound pressure level rating of 144dB enables the CK 63 to reproduce peaking audio levels without distortion and noise.
AKG's CK series microphones offer reliability, flexibility and convenience. The core of the CK series is the C 480B power supply / preamplifier. Compact in design this removable power supply provides flexibility in allowing interchangeable elements to be used depending on the application. The C 480B power module is completely compatible with the CK 61, 62, 63 and 69ULS capsules. The module supplies 48 Volt phantom power and features switchable attenuation of the output level by 10dB. Also featured is a +6dB preamplifier gain, particularly advantageous when using the CK 69ULS shotgun capsule, adding gain to signals generated at lengthy distances from the mic. A 75Hz / 150Hz bass-cut filter is also provided. The module boasts a low-inherent self noise spec resulting in dynamic range of more than 120dB.
