4.1 General Hints
The
PERCEPTION
400 is a general-pur-
pose multipattern microphone for re-
cording, broadcast, and onstage use.
Every instrument radiates its sound in a
specific way. Therefore, to get the best
sound it is crucial to experiment with
microphone placement.
• Whichever polar pattern you select-
ed, it may be good to know which
way the transducer axis is facing: the
front of the microphone is the side of
the body with the AKG logo and
polar pattern selector (1) on it.
• When recording wind instruments or
vocals, make sure not to blow or
sing directly into the microphone.
To avoid unwanted wind and pop
noise or moisture problems, place an
optional PF 80 pop screen from AKG
between the microphone and vocal-
ist/instrument.
• Keep the microphone dry. Moisture
from blowing or singing directly at the
capsule from a short distance, or
extremely high humidity may cause
the microphone to start crackling or
go very quiet due to partial short cir-
cuits in the polarization voltage.
• If you use the microphone in the
open, use an optional AKG W 4000
windscreen to protect the micro-
phone from moisture and reduce
wind noise.
• High volume instruments: You can
use this microphone for close-in
recording of very loud instruments
(brass instruments, kick drum, etc.).
Just switch the preattenuation pad in
to increase the microphone’s capabili-
ty of handling sound pressure levels to
145 dB.
