AKG C636 WL1 Master Cardioid Reference Condenser Vocal Microphone Head

For decades, legendary vocalists used the AKG C535 to bring their voices to the world. Last year, we redesigned that classic mic to bring you the AKG C636-the all-new master reference condenser microphone for live vocals. Now, with the C636 WL1 we've taken the same advances found in the C636, and incorporated them into a wireless head for AKG DMS800 and WMS4500 systems.

Be aggressive, the C636 can take it
If you’ve ever tried to bring a studio mic on stage, you know they’re too delicate to stand up to the task. The C636 WL1 proprietary double shock suspension system greatly reduces handling noise, even during the most energetic on-stage performances. Its capsule sits on a highly absorbent rubber bearing, eliminating any structure-based noise, while an adjustable balancing network cancels vibrations over a wide frequency range. In addition, a substantial brass layer below the capsule serves as a counterweight that increases stability and delivers cleaner acoustics.

A new approach to broad-spectrum feedback rejection
A consistent cardioid polar pattern eliminates troublesome feedback. A triple layer noise-rejection system lets you sing without vocal pops. And its robust double-shock suspension lets you carry the mic with zero handling noise. So join the ranks of legends. Sing into the C636 WL1 and experience your own legendary vocal performances.
