Audio-Technica AT4050 Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone

 Audio-Technica AT4050 Condenser Microphone

The Audio-Technica AT4050 is a versatile and high-quality multi-pattern condenser microphone. With its three polar patterns (omni, cardioid, and figure-of-eight), this microphone is suitable for a wide range of recording applications. It offers transparent uppers/mids and rich low-end qualities, providing exceptional audio reproduction. The AT4050 features dual large diaphragms that are gold-vaporized and aged for consistent performance. Its precision-machined, nickel-plated brass acoustic element baffle ensures stability and sensitivity.

Equipped with transformerless circuitry, the AT4050 eliminates low-frequency distortion, delivering clean and accurate sound reproduction. It also offers a switchable 80 Hz hi-pass filter and a 10 dB pad for added versatility in different recording situations. The microphone requires 48V DC phantom power for operation.

The AT4050 comes with a custom shock mount that provides superior isolation, minimizing unwanted vibrations and handling noise. It also includes a dust cover and a carrying case for convenient storage and transport.
