Audio-Technica introduces the AT4050ST Stereo Condenser Microphone, a stereo version of the AT4050.
The AT4050ST, developed in direct response to feedback from end users, is a stereo side-address externally polarized (DC bias) condenser microphone with independent cardioid and figure-of-eight elements, configured in a mid-side arrangement with switch-selectable internal matrixing. The AT4050ST offers sound recordists the choice of selecting a left-right stereo output (wide 127° or narrow 90°) via the microphone's internal matrixing system or choosing discreet mid-side signals for later manipulation.
The AT4050ST's dual-diaphragm capsule design maintains precise polar pattern definition across the full frequency range of the microphone. Unwanted internal reflections are minimized by ...
