AKG launching Connected PA adaptor

Harman is launching the AKG MDAi CPA Connected PA microphone adaptor. 

Featuring embedded ioSYS technology, it makes the Harman Connected PA System compatible with all AKG dynamic vocal mics, as well as mics from other manufacturers. Adding the adapter to any favoured vocal mic automatically configures it with the  Connected PA app and ecosystem, with instant recall of performer and presets.

“The Harman Connected PA, introduced earlier this year, gives musicians a fast and easy way to set up their PA system and get professional results,” said Noel Larson, Senior Global Manager, HarmanProfessional Solutions. “Now with the new AKG MDAi CPA Connected PA microphone adapter, performers can reach for their favorite vocal mic and plug directly into the Connected PA System, making it possible to instantly recall vocal presets and get dialed-in results at every performance.”

Products within the Connected PA system self-identify and retain presets, while setup wizards help quickly optimise volume, configuration settings and sound quality. Additional products with embedded ioSYS technology and HarmanConnected PA compatibility include the Soundcraft Ui24R mixer, JBL PRX800W loudspeakers, dbx Di1 direct boxes and AKG P5i microphones.

It will be available in May 2017 with an RRP of £49 inc VAT.
