C 480 B comb-ULS/61 Cardioid Microphone description:

Modular microphone comprising a C 480 B preamplifier, CK 61-ULS cardioid capsule, foam windscreen, and stand adapter.

The AKG C 480 B preamplifier powering unit is the latest model in the ULS series. It accommodates the CK 61/ULS, CK 62/ULS, CK 63/ULS capsules and the new CK 69/ULS shotgun capsule, providing a higher order of performance for these capsules than previously available. The new preamp has a vastly improved noise floor, permitting self noise performance with the four associated capsules in the range of 9 to 11 dB-A. Maximum sound pressure levels in the range of 144 dB (in the -10 dB sensitivity position) can be attained with no greater than 0.5% distortion, giving the capsules a new level of overall performance. An integral low cut filter (12 dB/octave) can be set for either 150 or 70 Hz. The +6 dB sensitivity position is intended to enhance the performance of the CK 69/ULS interference tube capsules, which normally operate over large distances. With the available CK 61/ULS cardioid, CK 63/ULS hypercardioid, CK 62/ULS omnidirectional, and highly directional CK 69/ULS shotgun element, the C 480 Series is intended primarily for studio, broadcast and a variety of live sound and speech reinforcement applications in which state-of-the-art performance is required. A complete line of optional accessories is available. The C 480 B operates only on 48 volts phantom powering. Check the Related Products.

The broadband, ruler-flat frequency response and consistent polar pattern of the CK 61-ULS make it ideal for critical recording and live sound applications where consistent suppression of off-axis sound is an important requirement. Includes foam windscreen.
