Description
The Audio Technica AT4040, the side-address cardioid condenser microphone, is highly recommended and rated audio-capturing equipment for productive conference room AV system setups. The reason for these excellent reviews is that the Audio Technica AT4040 microphone features the latest technology to help produce clear, natural sound across a wide range of frequencies, making it suitable for spoken words, instruments, and even animated voiceovers! The microphone design includes a mic stand with shock mounts that further increase its utility for users.
The main design feature of the Audio Technica AT4040 is its cardioid polar pattern, which mainly captures the voices from the sides and allows for better positioning options in a professional recording setup atop a flat desk surface. Combined with the shock mounts, the microphone setup provides one of the best audio capture devices for professional settings. The cardioid polar pattern of the Technica AT4040 is ideal for use in crowded meetings as it ensures the mic only captures the voice of the speaker in front, eliminating background noise and the voices of other participants.
To ensure the most immersive sound experience, the Audio Technica AT4040 microphone design also features a large diaphragm to capture voice accurately. It is particularly sensitive to different vocal sounds. This diaphragm, along with the wide frequency response range, beautifully supports the deeper baritone tones of the male voice and the higher-pitched or softer tones of female speakers.
This transformerless microphone setup guarantees accurate sounds with no distortions. These features also ensure that there is no hissing sound produced by the equipment when no one speaks into the microphone, making it an ideal choice for use in professional recording studios.
The shock mount included with the Audio Technica AT4040 side-address cardioid condenser microphone helps ensure that the microphone setup remains unaffected by physical vibrations from the surface it's placed on and any accidental bumps from handling.
