AKG P4 Dynamic Instrument Microphone

Turn up the volume on your sound with the AKG P4 dynamic instrument microphone. Part of the AKG Perception series, the P4 microphone delivers intense sound that’s perfect for miking drums, percussion, wind instruments, and guitar amps.

Hear only the music you’re trying to amplify with the P4’s cardioid polar pattern. The cardioid polar pattern focuses on sound in front of the microphone, so other musicians on stage and crowd noise coming from the sides and back of the microphone does not get picked up. Having a cardioid polar pattern also offers the added benefit of reducing feedback.

It’s no problem to take the P4 on the road with you. The microphone itself has durable construction and included with the mic is a zip bag for safe transport and storage.

About Dynamic Microphones at Sound Productions

If you’re looking for an all-purpose, heavy-duty microphone, look no further than a dynamic microphone. Equally outstanding in both the studio and live on stage, dynamic mics are an affordable, versatile, and classic option for nearly every miking application. Popular uses include live performances, studio recordings, man-on-the-street style interviews, as well as podcasts that aim for a professional “radio voice” polish.

Dynamic microphones work using a coil attached to a magnet. When sound waves cause the coil to vibrate up and down against the magnet, an electromagnetic current is induced; in simple terms, this turns the sound into an electronic signal to be channeled into a recorded version or—in the case of live sound—into a speaker to distribute the sound to the audience.
