This premium microphone is designed for detailed recordings of lead vocals, solo instruments and more.

As rugged as it is resonant, the C214 features a dent-resistant metal grille, scratch-resistant finish and gold-plated XLR connector built to handle the rigors of travel and live performance. It includes an eco-friendly gig bag made of recycled materials to transport your mic sustainably while keeping it safe from the elements.
