MICROPHONES:

AKG C451EB
cardioid condenser x2 (eighties)

A studio standard small-diaphragm microphone with interchangeable capsules. These have removeable 20dB pads, switchable 75Hz and 150Hz high-pass filters, and standard CK1 capsules. Bright and smooth top end, nice transient response, and rich bottom end when proximity effect is used. Excellent on hi hat, cymbals, toms, acoustic guitar, and percussion. These came out of the old Audio, Inc. studio in Charlotte.
