Audio-Technica ATM230

Audio-Technica ATM230 Audio-Technica has extended its Artist Series line with the release of the ATM230 Hypercardioid Dynamic Instrument Microphone, optimisied for drum and percussion miking.

The mic’s proprietary capsule is designed to excel in high SPL applications, delivering well-rounded audio with an exceptional low-end. The hypercardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear, improving isolation of desired sound source – directionality that is aided by the mic’s low-profile design, which allows it to be placed in a wide variety of positions. Accessories include the AT8665 drum mount and a soft protective pouch.

Key features:

· Frequency Response: 20Hz–12kHz.

· Hypercardioid polar pattern.

· Handles very high SPL at close range.

· Rare earth magnet for improved output and transient response.

· Low-profile design for placement around drum kit.

· Rugged, all-metal construction.

The Audio-Technica Artist Series ATM230 Hypercardioid Dynamic Instrument Microphone will be available March 2016 with a street price of US$139. Also available will be the ATM230PK pack with three ATM230s with a street price of US$349.
