OFFLINE Audio Technica ATM610a Hypercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone

Full Description

Hi-energy rare earth magnets and multi-layered grille

The ATM610a boasts an element loaded with Hi-Energy rare earth magnets. This powerful design ensures a perfectly balanced sound with high-output capabilities, tremendous transient response, and astounding vocal articulation when performing. On top of this, the ATM610a also features an innovative multi-layered grille. This road-ready grille design provides excellent protection for the sensitive components of the microphone, whilst simultaneously ensuring that plosives and sibilance are kept at bay. Combined with Audio Technica's super anti-shock system, the ATM610a boasts jaw-dropping sonic performance with a robust design and dramatically reduced handling noise.

Precise hypercardioid polar pattern

Cardioid polar patterns are perfect for a huge range of applications - with more sensitivity at the front of the microphone and significantly less at the sides and rear, a cardioid pattern reduces the capture of ambient noise and unwanted sound sources. Hypercardioid takes that one step further, providing even more isolation of your sound source with a much tighter directional pikcup angle. This powerful pattern is ideal for live performances and studio recording, be it spoken-word, vocals, instrumentation and more. The narrow angle of sensitivity minimizes bleed from other sources, capturing only what you want to be heard.

Reviews

"The handling noise is commendably low, as is the susceptibility to popping. I checked both mics with my acoustic guitar combo's mic input, and I could manage plenty of level before feedback became an issue." - Sound on Sound ATM510 and ATM610A Review.
