Exceptionally low noise, wide dynamic range, high sound pressure output capability, improved internal shock absorber. Includes custom AT8480 anti-shock mount and hard case. Designed to be a first-choice vocal microphone, the AT5040 features an extremely smooth high-frequency response that minimizes sibilance. Its large diaphragm and fast transient response also make it ideal for recording acoustic instruments such as piano, guitar, strings and saxophone. Rectangular four-diaphragm structure. Our first design criterion for the AT5040 was purity of sound. To achieve this, Audio-Technica engineers developed a four-part rectangular element, the pinnacle of our recent innovations in sound capture technology. Four ultra-thin diaphragms operate together (with summed outputs) as if they were a single, larger capsule, generating an overall surface area double that achievable with a standard circular diaphragm. By using four diaphragms in a single capsule, the AT5040 offers the advantages of an exceptionally large diaphragm - with very low self-noise - without increased weight, diminished transient response or other disadvantages typically associated with diaphragm size. Another key feature of the AT5040 is the advanced internal shock-mount system that effectively separates the capsule from the microphone body. Each AT5040 is also supplied with the innovative AT8480 anti-shock suspension for even greater isolation. Advanced circuit design. To ensure optimal capsule performance, the AT5040 circuit uses only discrete electronic components. Every single electronic component for the circuit board assembly is carefully selected based on its sound quality. Our method of combining the outputs of the four independent elements in this patent-pending design is truly unique. Using this exclusive method we were able to quadruple the microphone's sensitivity to -25 DB. This high sensitivity allows the AT5040 to perform optimally with a wide range of microphone preamplifiers. 100% quality control. All AT5040s are hand-assembled and individually checked, thus ensuring 100% quality control. Each microphone is enclosed in an elegant aluminum and brass casing with a high-quality gray finish for long durability and low reflectivity. Discrete components were selected to optimize capsule performance; in fact, every aspect of the microphone was carefully considered to minimize any effects on the audio signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAudio-Technica's \"top level\" studio condenser microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHigh performance of high musical fidelity, with deep realism and depth, presence and purity of sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe four ultra-thin diaphragms operate together (with summed outputs) as if they were a single, larger capsule, generating an overall surface area double that achievable with a standard circular diaphragm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eExceptionally low noise and wide dynamic range, ideal for studio vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCarefully selected discrete components to optimize capsule performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHigh SPL capability and extended frequency response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHand-assembled and 100% quality control inspected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInternal shock mounting capable of isolating the capsule from the microphone body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eElegant and durable aluminum and brass housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe advanced design AT-4080 shock mount (included) provides absolute isolation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe custom-designed hard case with \"die-cut foam\" compartments offers protection during transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAccessories included:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHard case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAT8480 shock mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AUDIO TECHNICA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53993231384909,"sku":"03639","price":3199.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/0643\/6173\/files\/186896-large_default.jpg?v=1779915416","url":"https:\/\/musicdelivery.net\/en\/products\/audio-technica-at5040","provider":"Music Delivery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
