Designed for wind instruments, great for percussion.
The AKG C419 is a clip-on condenser microphone that's designed specifically for wind instruments including saxophone, trumpet, trombone, tuba, etc. The C419 mic is also an excellent choice for drum and percussion instruments such as Udu drums, caj³n, and frame drum, or as an alternative to the C418 microphone on the snare drum. A frequency independent hypercardioid polar pattern reduces spillover from neighboring instruments to a minimum. A rubber coated clamp ensures easy attachment to the bell of a horn or the sound hole of a caj³n, and a 4.3" (110-mm) adjustable gooseneck allows precise microphone alignment.
