Description
The AKG Model Solidtube is a large diaphragm condenser
microphone that benefits from the combination of modern
solid-state technology and vacuum tube driven circuitry. The
microphone, released in 1997, AKG's Jubilee year, provides
the characterisitc warmth and generous margin of overload
expected from classic tube powered designs. Solid state
electronics within the N-Solid power supply ensure quiet and
reliable operation.
The Solidtube has a large double screened housing that
reacts minimally with the capsule and provides shielding from
RF interference. Frequency response remains relatively flat
within the range of ±2 dB. The mid-range cut at
approximately 2 kHz and presence rise above 10 kHz are
signature characteristics of AKG large diaphragm condenser
mics dating back to the classic C 12. They provide depth and
clarity to any recording. Mid-band pattern rejection at 180
in excess of 20 dB.
The microphone is response tailored for solo vocal and
instrumental pickup in the studio, and as such, has only a
dedicated cardioid pattern. The Solidtube is shipped with all
necessary cabling, an isolation shock mount, windscreen and
a custom aluminum flight case.
