AKG C 444 User Instructions page 11

The C 444 is a condenser microphone and therefore needs a
power supply.
1. Plug the mini XLR connector on the microphone cable all
the way into one of the two mini XLR sockets on the
B 29 L, the mini XLR socket on the connecting cable of the
MPA III, or the input socket on the bodypack transmitter.
The connector will lock automatically.
2. Connect the B 29 L or MPA III to the desired input.
The optional B 29 L battery supply allows you to connect two
microphones to a common balanced or unbalanced input in
order to save on mixer inputs.
The optional MPA III phantom power adapter lets you connect
the C 444 to any phantom power source or XLR input with
9 to 52 V phantom power.
For phantom powering the C 444 L via an MPA III we recom-
mend the optional N 62 E or N 66 E AC power supply or the
B 18 battery supply (also optional) from AKG.
Using any power supply other than those recom-
mended by AKG may damage your microphone and
will void the warranty.
