Audio-Technica, AT4050, Side-Address Microphone

Offering the realism of a live sound field, the AT4050 is a side-address condenser with cardioid and figure-of-eight elements configured in a Mid-Side arrangement.

Custom shock mount provides superior isolation. Dual-diaphragm capsule design maintains precise polar pattern definition across the full frequency range of the microphone. State-of-the-art surface-mount electronics ensure compliance with A-T's stringent consistency and reliability standards. Switchable 80 Hz hi-pass filter and 10 dB pad 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. Transparent uppers/mids balanced by rich low-end qualities combine with advanced acoustic engineering for extensive performance capabilities and highest quality.
