The AKG P120 is an affordable studio microphone for vocal and instrument recording. Unlike large-diaphragm microphones, it has a slightly smaller diaphragm. As a result, the impulse response is better and the resolution is very detailed. Especially low voices and string instruments benefit from the sound characteristics of the AKG P120 - the recordings seem very direct and present.
The AKG P120 has a switchable bass cut switch. It serves as a subsonic filter and compensates for proximity effects. Thanks to 20 dB pre-attenuation, even very loud sound sources can be recorded.
The all-metal housing and solid build quality make the AKG P120 suitable for use as a studio and stage microphone.
