The AKG C 1000 S ($322) condenser microphone has been upgraded with improvements in features and packaging.

The C 1000 S can be powered either by phantom voltage or by an internal 9-colt battery, and is equipped with a battery monitoring system to continuously check the condition of the battery. When the microphone is switched on, a red LED at the bottom of the on/off switch flashes once to indicate that the battery has enough current to power the microphone. When the battery's life drops to 45 minutes, the red LED stays on as a warning to indicate low battery power.

The C 1000 S comes with the PPC 1000, which allows the microphone to be switched from cardioid to hypercardioid pickup for greater pickup pattern control. It also comes with a PB 1000 presence boost adaptor that boosts the upper mids between 5 kHz and 9 kHz.

The C 1000 S is packaged in AKG's "Sound Tools" all-metal, hard-shell road case with a W 1000 windscreen and SA 63 unbreakable stand clamp.
