This might be a long shot but I’m looking for a polar pattern switch for an old AKG C 412 mic. It is the same as is used on early models of the C 414 as well. Any chance someone has one available?
No, that is the pattern switch.
The hi pass and pad are 3-way switches, the pattern switch is a 4-way.
It´s true that AKG used a grey pattern switch for some models (C414EB P48) but also this 4-way black one (C414B-ULS) so it´s important to check the model of C414.
This company in Germany may have the switch: www.audiopro.de/index.html
