Product Overview
Setting the new standard in audio capture, the Audio-Technica AE3300 gives voice to the subtleties of vocal performance, thanks to its pristine audio quality, ultra-low handling noise, and high-frequency clarity. It's a cardioid condenser vocal mic that features the same condenser element used in the legendary AT4033, time-tested and proven in the world’s finest recording studios. It includes a hardened-steel outer grille that's lined with fine steel mesh plus a layer of open-cell foam to offer ultimate protection against vocal plosives without compromising its high-frequency clarity. Additionally, it features superior anti-shock engineering which ensures low handling noise and quiet performance. Exceptional performance — exacting detail — brilliant clarity: the AE3300.
