Audio-Technica’s innovative use of two polar patterns is ideal for kick drum: the hypercardioid dynamic element focuses tightly on the aggressive attack of the beater, while the condenser captures the round tonalities of the shell. The elements are positioned in a perfect phase relationship, something practically impossible to achieve with two separate microphones. Includes a professional isolation clamp to provide secure mounting, versatile positioning and effective dampening of unwanted mechanical noise. Features Audio-Technica’s proven dual-element design features two elements (condenser and dynamic) enclosed in a single housing Neodymium dynamic element provides punch and attack, while the condenser element captures the full audio spectrum Elements are positioned in a perfect phase relationship, something practically unachievable with two separate microphones Perfect for kick drum, guitar amps, percussion and other instruments Integral 80 Hz HPF switch and 10 dB pad (condenser element) Versatile mounting options and effective dampening of mechanical noise thanks to included AT8471 isolation clamp Corrosion-resistant contacts from gold-plated XLRM-type connector Rugged, all-metal design and construction for years of trouble-free use Specifications ELEMENTS: Condenser, dynamic POLAR PATTERNS: Cardioid (condenser) Hypercardioid (dynamic) FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 40-20,000 Hz (condenser) 40-15,000 Hz (dynamic) LOW FREQUENCY ROLL-OFF: 80 Hz, 12 dB/octave (condenser) OPEN CIRCUIT SENSITIVITY: –49 dB (3.5 mV) re 1V at 1 Pa (condenser) –53 dB (2.2 mV) re 1V at 1 Pa (dynamic) IMPEDANCE: 50 ohms (condenser) 600 ohms (dynamic) MAXIMUM INPUT SOUND LEVEL: 148 dB SPL, 1 kHz at 1% T.H.D.
