Overview
Capture punchy, focused drum and percussion sound with the AKG by Harman C518 ML professional miniature clamp-on condenser microphone. Designed for pro live sound and project-studio environments, the C518 ML puts a cardioid polar pattern and a wide 60 Hz–20 kHz frequency range where you need them most—on the drum rim—so you get tight, low-end punch without unwanted spill from adjacent instruments. The adjustable vise-style clamp and snap-on stabilizer make mounting quick and repeatable, while the compact gooseneck lets you dial in precise placement for toms, snares and percussion. Included mini XLR cable and the A400 adapter plate simplify integration with AKG PT series body-pack transmitters, making this mic an excellent choice for wireless setups, stage monitoring and AV monitoring applications. With a rugged build, 200 ohm output and wired connectivity, the C518 ML is equally at home in touring rigs, broadcast stages and disciplined AV surveillance/monitoring installations that require reliable instrument miking. Add the AKG C518 ML to your toolkit for fast setup and consistent, professional drum sound—order now for live, studio and monitoring applications.
