Audio-Technica AT4050 Condenser microphone

Features:

• Transparent uppers/mids balanced by rich low-end qualitiescombine with advanced acoustic engineering for extensiveperformance capabilities and highest quality
• Dual- diaphragm capsule design maintains precise polar patterndefinition across the full frequency range of the microphone
• The 2-micron-thick, vapor-deposited gold diaphragms undergo afive-step aging process so that the optimum characteristicsachieved remain constant over years of use
• Three switchable polar patterns: omni, cardioid, figure-of-eight
• Transformerless circuitry virtually eliminates low-frequencydistortion and provides superior correlation of high-speedtransients
• State-of-the-art surface-mount electronics ensure compliancewith A-T's stringent consistency and reliability standards
• Switchable 80 Hz hi-pass filter and 10 dB pad
• Includes AT8449 shock mount
