Audio-Technica AT4050 ST

Offering the realism of a live sound field, AT4050ST is a condenser microphone with two elements, one cardioid and the other figure-of-eight arranged in Mid-Side mode. This stereo condenser microphone allows users recording sounds to choose a left-right stereo output or select the discrete Mid-Side signals for later manipulation - an amazing flexibility. The microphone's dual-diaphragm capsules maintain the definition of polar patterns across the entire frequency range. Its transformerless circuit virtually eliminates distortion at low frequencies.

• Innovative stereo microphone with Mid-Side "side-address" technology - designed for professional recordings, radio broadcasts, and sound reinforcement
• Independent cardioid and figure-of-eight condenser elements
• Switch for selecting Mid-Side mode and two stereo modes
• Dual-diaphragm capsules maintain polar pattern definition across the microphone's entire frequency range.
• The transformerless circuit effectively eliminates almost any distortion at low frequencies, ensuring superior correlation of high-speed transients.
• Gold diaphragms with a thickness of 2 microns undergo a 5-stage maturation process, ensuring optimal characteristics remain consistent over the years.
• The open acoustic environment of the symmetrical housing minimizes unwanted internal reflections.
• Integrated high-pass filter switch at 80Hz and 10dB signal attenuation switch.
• State-of-the-art design and production techniques ensure a quality standard you can trust, characteristic of Audio-Technica.
• Custom shock mount system for better isolation
