The Product

The Audio Technica ATM250DE is the latest The Artist Series kick-drum mic. It is a dual-element instrument microphone featuring a cardioid condenser and hypercardioid dynamic capsule combined in a single housing. The innovative use of two polar patterns is ideal for kick drum as the hypercardioid dynamic element with Neodymium magnet assembly focuses tightly on the aggressive attack of the beater, while the condenser captures the round tonalities of the shell. The elements are positioned in a perfect phase relationship, something practically impossible to achieve with two separate microphones. Includes a professional isolation clamp to provide secure mounting, versatile positioning and effective dampening of unwanted mechanical noise. It also features an integral 80Hz HPF switch and 10 dB pad (condenser element), corrosion-resistant gold plated XLR contacts and has a rugged, all-metal design and construction for years of trouble free use.

Condenser element requires phantom power to function.
