The AT4021 is a fixed-charge condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern. It is designed to meet the demands of critical studio and live applications. The microphone requires 48V phantom power for operation.
The cardioid polar pattern of the microphone is more sensitive to sound originating directly in front of the element, making it useful for controlling feedback and reducing pickup of unwanted sounds. The output of the microphone is a 3-pin XLRM-type connector. The microphone is equipped with a switchable 10 dB pad and a switch that permits choice of flat response or low-frequency roll-off (via integral 80 Hz high-pass filter). The microphone is enclosed in a rugged housing. The included AT8405a stand clamp permits mounting on any microphone stand with 5/8″-27 threads. A windscreen and a protective carrying case are also included.
