AKG CK92 Blue Line Series Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone Capsule
The AKG CK92 is a Blue Line Series omnidirectional condenser capsule for the SE300 B preamp, providing neutral and consistent ambient sound presentation, proximity-effect-free performance at all distances, and Modulock bayonet coupling.Overview
The AKG CK92 is a precision omnidirectional small condenser capsule from the Blue Line Series, designed for applications where a natural, uncoloured representation of a source within its acoustic environment is the priority. Free from proximity effect due to its omnidirectional pickup, the CK92 delivers consistent results regardless of microphone-to-source distance, making it ideal for close-up instrument miking, ambience recording, and classical and orchestral applications. It works exclusively with the AKG SE300 B preamp module via the Modulock bayonet coupling for fast, secure capsule changes.

FAQ
Why use an omnidirectional capsule instead of a cardioid?
Omnidirectional capsules pick up sound equally from all directions, eliminate proximity effect, and are preferred when capturing a natural ambient sound field — particularly for classical recording or room ambience.
What windscreen is compatible with the CK92?
The W90 windscreen is included and specifically designed for the Blue Line Series capsule diameter.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is an omnidirectional broadcast microphone like the CK92 the right choice?
The omnidirectional CK92 is ideal for capturing ambient room tone, multi-speaker tables (round-robin discussions), and situations where proximity effect must be eliminated and even frequency response is critical—common in panel discussions and public affairs programs.
What does neutral and consistent ambient sound presentation mean?
The CK92 picks up the room and all speakers equally without favoring nearby voices, creating a balanced audio picture that feels open and inclusive—ideal for town halls, legislative hearings, and committee meetings.
Why is proximity-effect-free performance important in broadcast?
Without proximity effect, speakers can position themselves at different distances from the microphone without the bass response shifting—eliminating EQ headaches and allowing talent natural movement during live broadcast.
Which preamp is the CK92 engineered to work with?
The CK92 operates exclusively with the AKG SE300 B preamp, which provides phantom power and broadcast-grade signal conditioning.
How does the Modulock bayonet coupling enable quick format changes on air?
If a broadcast suddenly switches from a multi-speaker panel (omnidirectional) to a single-speaker interview (cardioid), the crew can swap capsules in seconds using the Modulock system without interrupting transmission.
Is the CK92 suitable for outdoor broadcast events?
Yes; the omnidirectional pattern is robust outdoors for capturing crowd or ambient atmosphere, though wind protection should be added—contact Procure.ae about foam windscreen options for outdoor use.
How long does delivery take for the CK92 to a UAE broadcast station?
Contact Procure.ae for current stock status and delivery timing; availability may depend on whether you need the capsule alone or a complete SE300 B system.
Can Procure.ae assemble a complete Blue Line broadcast system with CK92 and SE300 B?
Yes; Procure.ae supplies broadcast equipment for media organizations across the UAE and GCC—reach out to discuss a multi-capsule or complete system solution.
What comes with the CK92 capsule?
The package includes the omnidirectional condenser capsule; the SE300 B preamp, cables, Modulock coupling hardware, and windscreen are ordered separately.
How is the CK92 different from a general omnidirectional microphone?
The CK92 is engineered specifically for broadcast standards: studio-grade frequency response, Modulock quick-change compatibility, and proven reliability in professional news, public affairs, and corporate broadcast settings.
What warranty and support apply to the CK92?
Contact Procure.ae for warranty details, coverage terms, and regional technical support for broadcast-grade Blue Line capsules.
