AGK D3600 professional Double Cardioid Microphone with case and 5 mtr 3 pin mini atx lead. Bought from new and used for home recording. The microphone is in excellent condition and has been carefully looked after. This is an excellent microphone for recording drums, kick bass, trumpet, guitar or even acoustic Guitar and will withstand up to 156 decibels, the frequency response is from 20 to 2200, sensitivity is 2.0 mv/pa. there is an integrated shock absorbing microphone stand adaptor and also it has an 80hz  switchable HP filter. The mic has a low frequency response and a lack of proximity effect to avoid feedback and to allow very close miking which can open the door to experimentation.

 

From a smoke and pet free home. 

 

This will be sent with FREE POSTAGE carefully and adequately package and sent by royal mail 48.

 

 

To the UK mainland and Northern Ireland 

 

 

Other information I have found out about the microphone,

 

 

the D3600  has not one but two capsules, mounted in an IsoDamp isolation system. One capsule is forward facing and handles only the high frequencies, while the other is mounted behind it, facing into the body, to pick up the bass end. The outcome is a microphone that exhibits very little proximity response and has a wide, relatively flat frequency response ranging from 20Hz to 22kHz. The other two models have similar high frequency extension but are designed to roll off steadily below 200Hz, presumably to compensate for the fact that these models exhibit the same degree of proximity effect as most other conventional dynamic cardioids.
In shape, the mic is triangular and it has an integral stand adaptor which folds flush into the body for packing. This is coupled to the rest of the body via an elastomer suspension to provide another layer of protection between the microphone capsule and the shocks of the outside world. I was pleased to note that the adaptor had a smooth but stiff movement which was easy to set yet stayed where I put it.
Unlike the vocal models, the presence peak on this microphone is far more subtle, amounting to around 4dB in the 3-5kHz region. The capsule has a cardioid rather than hypercardioid response and provides a response that is almost ruler flat from 40Hz up to 1kHz, where the presence rise starts to take off. Because of the extended bass response, a bass rolloff switch is provided, which starts a very gentle roll-off just below 1kHz. Sound Pressure Levels of up to 156dB can be accommodated with only 3% THD, making the D3600 eminently suitable for use with drums, including bass drums, as well as brass instruments and loud guitar stacks. Its sensitivity is  2mV/Pa at 1 kHz.

 

I found the D3600 quite a surprising microphone in that it had a far more open, extended sound than I’ve come to expect from dynamic models undoubtedly due in part to the dual capsule approach. Normally I’d never use a dynamic for recording acoustic guitars, because of their lack of HF detail, but this fared very well and also proved sensitive enough so long as the instrument was played with enthusiasm. It produced a very even, well-balanced sound and also proved itself a very worthy vocal microphone. Indeed, in the studio I preferred it to any of the dedicated vocal mics as it seemed to give a more open and subjectively more accurate sound.
