The Neumann AK 30 Microphone Capsule is part of the KM 100 miniature series microphone systems. The AK 30 features a pressure gradient, single diaphragm transducer with an omnidirectional polar pattern. It produces a flat frequency response up to 10kHz. In the free sound field the microphone has a boost of approximately 7dB at 10kHz. The microphone is best applied as a spot microphone for piano, wind instruments, strings, percussion and drums, room ambiance capturing or stereo recording.
Omnidirectional Pattern
The pressure gradient element provides an omnidirectional pattern providing even frequency response and output levels.
Modular Design
The capsule is developed for use with the KM100 and KM100F modular power supplies.
