AT4050SM Studio Mic+Mount Side Address Condenser Switchable
The Audio-Technica AT4050SM is a large-diaphragm, multi-pattern condenser microphone bundled with a professional shock mount, delivering studio-grade performance straight out of the box. Renowned as one of the most versatile workhorses in the AT40 Series, this side-address microphone features three switchable polar patterns â cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-of-eight â giving engineers exceptional flexibility across a wide range of recording and broadcast applications.
Built around a precision-engineered dual-diaphragm capsule with a transformerless output circuit, the AT4050SM delivers remarkably transparent, low-noise performance with a smooth, natural frequency response. Its ability to handle high SPLs (up to 149 dB with the pad engaged) makes it equally at home on loud sources as it is capturing the subtlety of vocal performances and acoustic instruments.
