C214+ATH-M30X

This bundle builds a complete vocal recording setup around the AKG C214 large-diaphragm condenser microphone. The C214 shares its sonic character with the flagship C414 XLII, using a one-inch capsule on an integrated suspension along with a switchable 20dB pad and bass-cut filter to handle sources up to 156dB SPL with minimal proximity effect. Surrounding that mic is the Rockville RockShield 1, a three-panel acoustic isolation shield with 1.5 inch thick high-density foam and a vented metal back plate that keeps room reflections and off-axis noise out of your take, whether it's mounted to a mic stand or set on a tabletop. To check your recordings, the set includes Audio-Technica ATH-M30X closed-back monitor headphones, built with 40mm drivers and a circumaural design for tight sound isolation and detailed mid-range. Together the three pieces cover tracking, room treatment, and monitoring in one purchase, useful for anyone setting up a home vocal booth or podcast corner without piecing together separate gear from separate shops.
