Audio-Technica AT4050 Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone

Brand: Audio-Technica

Features:

• Transparent uppers/mids balanced by rich low end qualities combine with advanced acoustic engineering for extensive performance capabilities and highest quality
• Dual diaphragm capsule design maintains precise polar pattern definition across the full frequency range of the microphone
• The 2 micron thick, vapor deposited gold diaphragms undergo a five step aging process so that the optimum characteristics achieved remain constant over years of use
• Three switchable polar patterns: omni, cardioid, figure of eight
• Transformerless circuitry virtually eliminates low frequency distortion and provides superior correlation of high speed transients
