The wireless voice

Step on stage with a studio legend. Offering the pure studio sound you’ve grown to love, the AKG C636 WL1 head is housed in a worry-free durable housing, you can now focus on your vocal performance—not on the performance of your microphone. Its proprietary double shock suspension system provides unparalleled rejection of handling noise. And the C636 WL1 doubles-down on keeping your performance flawless by incorporating a state-of-the-art, multi-layer pop noise rejection system that eliminates plosives and a road-tested, cardioid polar pattern that eliminates feedback. Made with hand-selected components and manually tuned for a pure transparent tone, the new C636 WL1 head retains the spirit of the classic AKG C535 condenser microphone, while being re-engineered to meet the demands of today’s top vocal performers. The C636 WL1 is designed to fit the DMS800 and WMS4500 wireless systems.

For decades, legendary vocalists used the AKG C535 to bring their voices to the world. Last year, we redesigned that classic mic to bring you the AKG C636—the all-new master reference condenser microphone for live vocals. Now, with the C636 WL1 we've taken the same advances found in the C636, and incorporated them into a wireless head for AKG DMS800 and WMS4500 systems.
If you’ve ever tried to bring a studio mic on stage, you know they’re too delicate to stand up to the task. The C636 WL1 proprietary double shock suspension system greatly reduces handling noise, even during the most energetic on-stage performances. Its capsule sits on a highly absorbent rubber bearing, eliminating any structure-based noise, while an adjustable balancing network cancels vibrations over a wide frequency range. In addition, a substantial brass layer below the capsule serves as a counterweight that increases stability and delivers cleaner acoustics.
A consistent cardioid polar pattern eliminates troublesome feedback. A triple layer noise-rejection system lets you sing without vocal pops. And its robust double-shock suspension lets you carry the mic with zero handling noise. So join the ranks of legends. Sing into the C636 WL1 and experience your own legendary vocal performances.
When AKG artists told us that “pops are the enemy,” we listened and incorporated a multi-layer protection system to provide singers with clear, plosive-free vocal performances. The protection system spares no expense and consists of the grille, a foam layer behind the grille and a magnetically attached computer-modeled mesh layer on top of the capsule. This triple-layer protection system is virtually unique to AKG and is not found in any microphone remotely near this price range.
With its spring steel grille, the C636 WL1 stands up to the most demanding tour schedules. And its 24-karat gold-plated capsule protects the microphone against moisture and corrosion.
