As noted in the first feature this microphone carries a big old ace in its sleeve, a condenser that can be battery powered is a wonderful tool for field recordings (mobile work in unhelpful conditions, like a shop or the gates of hell) and at such an affordable price it really is an attractive offer. As I have had no experience using it in field recordings I cannot assume of its ability in that area, I did however attempt to put in a battery which was most...more

AKG are among some of the best producers of microphones. You may of recently read my review of the AKG D112 microphone in which I can happily say it is one of the best kick drum mics I have used.

The C1000 is a condensor microphone meaning it needs phantom power. However not all mixing desks, especially the budget ones, come with this feature. To help this problem this microphone can have a battery plugged into the body. This is definately a benifit if ... Read the complete review
