he Audio-Technica AT4041 is a premium electret condenser microphone designed for professional recording, broadcast, and live sound applications. Known for its smooth, extended frequency response, the AT4041 features a slight rise in the high-frequency region that enhances the clarity and brilliance of recorded sound. Ideal for drum overheads, acoustic guitar, piano, horns, and under snare miking, this microphone ensures precise, detailed capture of even the most demanding sound sources.
With its low-mass diaphragm, the AT4041 improves transient response and increases response bandwidth, ensuring a wide, natural sound reproduction. The transformerless circuitry eliminates low-frequency distortion and provides excellent correlation of high-speed transients, making it perfect for high-SPL environments. Whether in the studio or on stage, this microphone is engineered to handle the most critical acoustic requirements with ease.
The AT4041 is housed in a rugged, turned-brass microphone casing with black chrome plating, ensuring durability and low reflectivity for optimal sound capture. The fixed-charge back plate is precision milled and aged for maximum charge linearity, reducing frequency response peaks and diaphragm break-up distortion, delivering consistently accurate sound.
For added versatility, the AT4041 features a switchable low-frequency roll-off at 80 Hz to reduce unwanted low-end noise, and its cardioid polar pattern ensures isolation of the desired sound source by rejecting noise from the rear and sides.
Key Features:
- Smooth, Extended Frequency Response: A slight high-frequency rise adds clarity to recordings.
