Studio Recorded Sound On a Home Recorder Budget
This could be one of the most versatile, and under appreciated, microphones in AKG's lineup. This mic was purchased to complement a portable digital audio recorder with the idea of using one setup for both audio interviews and recording spoken word narrations as well as producing on-location recordings of various types. While AKG does not list this particular microphone for use with this type of application, we are finding this an excellent mic for these purposes.The mic has a solid ...

Great mic
I got this for use with digital recorders to record people speaking about historical events. The battery makes that possible with this mic. I also tried several less expensive microphones, but the sound quality and noise reduction from them was no where near what this mic does. The voice booster adaptor works particularly well with the raspy voices of older people. This is a large microphone that is excellent for voice recording.

Versatile, great sounding.
This mic is truly versatile. I have seen it being used as a microphone for:1) Acoustic Instruments2) Drum Overheads3) Vocals4) Large Choral GroupsAlthough it needs phantom power, the 9V battery input allows this mic to be used almost anywhere. I have used this in studio/live environment. And it always lead to excellent results. If I was held to gunpoint and asked to choose one microphone to save my life, it would definitely be the AKG-C1000S!

A fine mic for group vocals-adds and they add a warm presence to fill during live performances
A great mic for a live stage setting.powerful, yet once you get the idea on its design, you can govern and avoid unwanted sounds. Using the mics for small vocal group, presence addition to live musical performances.

Still delivers amazing results after years of use
I'll cut to the chase here, I've owned this mic for 15 years now and it consistently brings every situation to a peak level of recording performance. Its versatility allows you to face it into a speaker to record heavy metal guitar or bring solo voice talent to a new level, loud or soft, regardless of the idealness of the ambient acoustics the AKG C1000S Studio Condenser Mic is a true professional quality microphone that brings top results every time.
