Description
AKG GN30 ESP High Performance Modular Gooseneck Modules
The AKG GN30 ESP positions your vocal mic exactly where it needs to be on stage or in the studio with a flexible gooseneck design that locks in tight and rejects feedback without fuss. These modular components capture every vocal nuance with smooth, detailed character while cutting through the mix in live and studio environments. The system's modular architecture lets you swap capsules as your rig evolves, making it a smart investment for touring vocalists and session performers.
Design & Build
At just 20 mm diameter and 10.2 inches long, the gooseneck stays compact and responsive in your hand, with minimal handling noise when you need to move it during a set. The matte dark gray finish reads professional under stage lights while the modular design accepts DAM Series capsules including CK31, CK32, CK33, CK47, and CK80 so you can dial in the character that suits your voice.
Audio Performance & Connectivity
Delivers the full vocal spectrum at 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response with balanced XLR output (3-pin XLR male connector) and 2,000 Ohm recommended load impedance for clean, noise-free signal to your mixer or interface. High RF immunity keeps buzz and interference out of your mix, while an integrated bass roll-off filter switch lets you tame proximity effect and rumble on the fly without losing vocal presence.

Frequently Asked Questions
What capsules work with the GN30 ESP module?
The GN30 ESP is compatible with AKG DAM Series capsules: CK31, CK32, CK33, CK47, and CK80. You can swap capsules to change the microphone's tonal character and frequency response without replacing the entire gooseneck assembly.
Does this microphone require phantom power?
Yes, the GN30 ESP operates on 9 to 52 V phantom power and draws 3.5 mA of current. Any standard audio interface, preamp, or mixer with phantom power will support it.
How does the gooseneck design help with live vocals and recording?
The 20 mm diameter, 10.2-inch gooseneck lets you position the capsule precisely for optimal proximity to the source, which improves feedback rejection and reduces handling noise. The integrated bass roll-off filter switch also lets you tame proximity effect and environmental rumble on the fly.
What output connector does it use?
The GN30 ESP features a balanced 3-pin XLR male connector with 2,000 Ohm recommended load impedance for clean signal transmission to your mixer, preamp, or interface.
What special features help in noisy environments?
High RF (radio-frequency) immunity protects against wireless interference, while the integrated bass roll-off filter and programmable mute switch (on/off, push-to-talk, push-to-mute modes) give you control over unwanted noise and signal routing in live and studio settings.
