AKG PCC130SW Supercardioid Boundary Microphone with Programmable Switch
The AKG PCC130SW is a compact supercardioid boundary microphone with a programmable silent membrane switch for touch on/off, momentary on, or momentary off operation. It captures distant voices clearly with low self-noise and includes an LED indicator for mic-on status.Overview
The AKG PCC130SW extends the PCC130 platform with a programmable silent membrane switch, giving conference participants individual control over their microphone. The supercardioid polar pattern tightens the pickup compared to the standard cardioid PCC130, improving background noise rejection and feedback margin in multi-microphone environments. PCC technology ensures phase-accurate sound reproduction for natural speech intelligibility. The silent membrane switch can be configured for touch on/off, momentary on, or momentary off behaviour, and an LED indicator provides clear visual mic-on feedback. The detachable XLR cable simplifies installation and replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a silent membrane switch do that makes it better than a regular microphone button?
A silent membrane switch mutes without generating the audible click or electrical noise of a traditional switch. In formal meetings or video calls, this keeps the mute action completely discrete and professional.
Can we use the PCC130SW in touch on/off mode for a meeting where multiple people speak briefly?
Yes, touch on/off mode is ideal for meetings with changing speakers. A light tap toggles the microphone on or off, giving users control without needing to hold a button down.
What is momentary on operation and when would council members prefer it?
Momentary on means the microphone only transmits while the button is actively pressed. This is useful in formal settings where you want the mic to be muted by default and participants must intentionally activate it to speak.
How does the PCC130SW supercardioid pattern compare to standard boundary microphones for a boardroom?
Supercardioid is more directional and rejects side and rear noise better than cardioid, making the PCC130SW ideal for large boardrooms where you want clear pickup from the main table while excluding side conversations or background activity.
Does the LED indicator show the microphone status to participants far from the table?
Yes, the LED lights when the microphone is active, providing visual feedback to speakers and observers anywhere in the room. This prevents confusion about whether someone is being heard.
