Audio-Technica AT4050 Multi-Pattern Cardioid Condensor Microphone

“The 4050 is transparent, very musical and exceptionally reliable. One of my most used tools.” Nathaniel Kunkel, Grammy-Winning Producer/Engineer

Deemed “the stuff legends are made of” at its introduction, the Audio-Technica AT4050 exhibits a remarkable combination of high SPL capability with transparent and airy uppers/mids complemented by rich low-end qualities. And numerous legendary studio engineers agree that it is the perfect studio tool for use on vocals, piano, strings, drum overheads, guitar amps, ensembles – the list goes on and on.

The externally polarized (DC bias) true condenser element of the Audio-Technica AT4050 utilizes dual, gold-vaporized and aged, large diaphragms to provide consistent, superior performance in three switchable polar patterns (cardioid, omnidirectional and figure of-eight). A precision-machined, nickel-plated brass, acoustic element baffle provides enhanced element stability and optimal sensitivity, ensuring the capture of every nuance of a performance, every time.

Audio-Technica AT4050 Features:

Audio-Technica AT4050 Includes:

  • Transparent uppers/mids balanced by rich low-end qualities combine with advanced acoustic engineering for extensive performance capabilities and highest quality.
  • Dual-diaphragm capsule design maintains precise polar pattern definition across the full frequency range of the microphone.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Custom shock mount provides superior isolation.
  • 1 x AT8449 Shockmount
  • 1 x Dust Cover
  • 1 x Protective Carrying Case
