AKG C3000 Mic Review.

AKG Acoustics C 3000 Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone The C 3000 was a unique dual-capsule condenser microphone. Two separate capsules were mounted inside the headbasket — a large-diameter cardioid capsule and a small-diameter hypercardioid capsule. Both capsules are shockmounted to reduce noise.
