The AKG P170 is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed to deliver precise, detailed sound when recording acoustic instruments, drums, overheads, and other percussive instruments. With its cardioid polar pattern, the P170 captures sound from the source while minimizing background noise, making it ideal for both studio and live applications.
The P170 excels at recording stringed instruments such as acoustic guitars, violins, and cellos, as well as drum overheads, thanks to its wide frequency response and ability to handle high sound pressure levels (SPL) without distortion. This makes it a versatile microphone for capturing clear, natural sound across a variety of instruments.
Its robust metal housing ensures durability and reliability during live performances and recording sessions, while its lightweight and compact design allows for easy placement in tight spaces or on a drum kit. The AKG P170 also comes with an integrated stand adapter, providing flexibility in positioning.
Whether you're recording in the studio or performing live, the AKG P170 offers professional-grade sound quality with the versatility needed to capture detailed, high-fidelity recordings of acoustic and percussive instruments.
