AKG CK31 Overview

The AKG CK31 is a cardioid microphone capsule designed for use with the DAM (Discreet Acoustics Modular) Series mounting modules. The cardioid polar pattern minimizes noise and ambiance at the off-axis (sides) of the microphone. The result increases directivity and provides high gain-before-feedback response when using near speakers or monitors.

The wide frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz minimizes low-frequency noise caused by wind and proximity effect while reproducing audio signal with great accuracy and rich detail. The module design allows quick and easy capsule replacement for added flexibility. The package includes a special two-part windscreen, which efficiently reduces wind and pop noise.

Modular Design
The CK31 is designed with gold-plated contacts with deep threads for use with the DAM (Discreet Acoustics Modular) Series mounting modules. The modular design offers quick capsule replacement and enhances flexibility.
Cardioid Polar Pattern
The cardioid polar pattern minimizes noise and ambient audio signal at the off-axis (sides) of the microphone capsule.
Wide Frequency Response
The wide frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz offers smooth, accurate audio reproduction while minimizing low-frequency noise.
Dual-Layer Wind Protection
The included dual-layer windscreen provides a primary layer, which disperses the incoming wind stream while the second layer further diffuses wind flow before reaching the diaphragm.

This item looked great but unfortunately I never got to us it because the threads on it were not compatible to the unit I had. Had to return it.

Great Sound Reproduction!

We've upgraded our church choir sound reinforcement with these AKGs and it's made a big difference in quality.

question

Is it very good for recording a chorus (Choir) with AKG CK31 microphone?
Asked by: Anonymous
The AKG CK31 would be a good choice for recording a choir. A good pick up with minimum feedback. It would be recommended to use 2 or more for this purpose. Using this capsule would require the use of a power module such as the AKG HM 1000. http://bhpho.to/1DW1l0a
