AKG P220 Large-Diaphragm Condenser

The AKG P220 is a large-diaphragm true condenser microphone built for project studios and live stages. Its rugged all-metal body and included spider-type shock mount in an aluminium case withstand transport and daily use. The design targets vocalists and instrumentalists needing a reliable, high-performance microphone.

Suited for vocals, acoustic guitar and brass

Singers, acoustic guitarists and brass players benefit from the warm, clear sound and the switchable bass-cut filter. The attenuation pad handles sound pressure levels up to 155 dB SPL for loud sources. Buyers who need multiple polar patterns or a microphone for very quiet ambient recording should look elsewhere.

Switchable attenuation pad to 155 dB SPL

The built-in pad lets the microphone accept extremely loud signals without distortion, a decisive spec for close-miking drums or amplified instruments. If your sessions never exceed moderate volume, this headroom may be unnecessary.

How can I confirm the P220 is capturing audio correctly after connecting it?
