Audio-Technica AT4021 (Mic Only) (Cardioid Condenser Inst Mic)

The Audio-Technica AT4021 is versatile small-diaphragm condenser microphone that's perfect for both the studio and the stage. The AT4021's cardioid pickup pattern helps to improve isolation of your sound source, and an onboard switch lets you choose between a flat response, or a rolled-off response at 80Hz, to eliminate low-frequency rumble. It's a good choice for miking acoustic guitars or for using as a drum overhead microphone. Essential accessories, including a stand clamp, a windscreen, and a protective carrying case, are included with the Audio-Technica AT4021 small-diaphragm condenser microphone.Audio-T echnica AT4021 Small-diaphragm Condenser Microphone at a Glance:Studio and stage-worthy microphone, great for acoustic guitar and drums10dB pad and 80Hz highpass filter, for tailoring the AT4021 to the sourceStudio and stage-worthy microphone, great for acoustic guitar and drumsA member of Audio-Technica's rugged 40-series microphones, the AT4021 is a worthy choice for both stage- and studio-miking needs.
