A "vocal microphone" format designed for stage and monitors
In the live world, the dynamic microphone remains a reliable choice for vocals: it is valued for its robustness, ability to handle high sound pressure levels, and ease of integration into a stage mix. With a supercardioid pattern, this model clearly fits a "performance" logic: focusing the pickup on the voice and limiting the capture of surrounding sources to gain comfort and control, especially with stage monitors.
Who is this stage microphone most suitable for, and in which uses?
This vocal microphone is aimed at singers, presenters, rehearsals in studios as well as concerts, and equipped venues (halls, associations, schools, rehearsal studios) looking for a simple, reliable, and effective microphone. The supercardioid pattern is particularly interesting when the stage is noisy or when better voice isolation is desired, for example in the presence of drums, guitar amps, or powerful monitors.
The on/off switch also makes this microphone very practical for speaking: announcements, transitions, choirs, occasional interventions, or managing a stage with multiple artists.

Dynamic microphone (no need for a 48v power supply, but supports it anyway) quite sensitive directional. Good Signal/Noise ratio and therefore (in view of the ridiculous price) very good Quality/Price ratio.

Questions frequently asked
Is the AKG P5S suitable for powerful stage monitors?
The supercardioid pattern reduces side pickup and provides a better feedback rejection margin with stage monitors. Positioning in the axis of the capsule ensures consistent vocal pickup.
What is the polar pattern of this vocal microphone?
Its supercardioid pattern favors the voice in front of the microphone while limiting bleed from surrounding sources, especially drums and amplifiers.
Does the microphone have a switch?
An on/off switch is integrated into the microphone body. It allows muting the signal directly on stage between performances or during movement. This feature helps reduce unwanted noise when the microphone is not in use.
What is the maximum sound pressure level it can handle?
The dynamic capsule accepts a maximum sound pressure level of 144 dB SPL, with a rated sensitivity of 2.5 mV/Pa.
What accessories are included with the microphone?
A carrying pouch and a microphone clip are included. The body is made of metal and the grille includes a windscreen to reduce breath noises and plosives.
