The Neumann AK 40 Cardioid Microphone Capsule is part of the KM 100 miniature series microphone systems. It features a pressure gradient, single diaphragm transducer with a cardioid polar pattern. The cardioid polar pattern is highly effective in reducing off-axis ambiance and noise. This allows the element to be used in recording and sound reinforcement applications, in front of stage monitors or instrument miking.
Modular Design
The capsule is developed for use with the KM100 and KM100F modular power supplies.
Cardioid Polar Pattern
