Description: Used but in great working condition. From Sound On Sound review: AKG's original C1000 was the first back‑electret capacitor mic I ever owned, and the difference it made to my recordings was both obvious and immediate. Whereas dynamic mics always left my acoustic instruments sounding choked at the high‑frequency end, the C1000 produced a far more open, articulate result — but at the same time, the sound remained warm and musical. That was a very long time ago and since then, the C1000 has undergone a number of small design changes.Later versions of the C1000 were designated the C1000S, largely because a little plastic widget could be slipped over the capsule to change the polar response from cardioid to super‑cardioid. My own view is that while the hypercardioid response may be better for live work, where spill can be a major problem, the regular cardioid pattern may be more forgiving in the studio, especially for vocal recording where the sound source has a tendency to move.
