Product Overview

Looking for a studio condenser mic that captures every nuance? The large-diaphragm Audio-Technica AT4050, with three switchable polar patterns —omnidirectional, cardioid, figure-of-eight— should fill that need nicely. It exhibits a remarkable combination of qualities: high-SPL (sound pressure level)-capability with transparent and airy uppers and mids that are both complemented by its rich low-end characeristics. This quality microphone features dual large diaphragms that are gold-vaporized and aged for consistent, exceptional performance. It's also equipped with a precision-machined, nickel-plated brass acoustic element baffle that provides rock-solid element stability and outstanding sensitivity.
