With the motto "this is how legends are born" on its packaging, the AT4050 offers an incredible combination of high SPL capabilities with crystal clear, transparent highs/mids, all complemented by rich super bass. Add to that that a number of already legendary technicians agree that it is the perfect tool for recording studio pickup for vocals, piano, strings, drum kits, guitar amps, instrumental ensembles - the list is endless. The AT4050's externally biased (DC bias) true condenser element uses two large diaphragms with a thin, aged gold coating to deliver superior, highly reliable performance with three switchable polar patterns (cardioid, omni, and figure-of-eight).
