Audio-Technica U.S., Inc. Dual-Element Instrument Microphone ATM250DE

Description
The ATM250DE dual-element instrument microphone features cardioid condenser and hypercardioid dynamic capsules combined in a single housing. Audio-Technica's innovative use of two polar patterns is ideal for kick drum: the hypercardioid dynamic element 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. ELEMENTS: Condenser, dynamic POLAR PATTERNS: Cardioid (condenser) Hypercardioid (dynamic) FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 40-20,000 Hz (condenser) 40-15,000 Hz (dynamic) LOW FREQUENCY ROLL-OFF: 80 Hz, 12 dB/octave (condenser) OPEN CIRCUIT SENSITIVITY: -49 dB (3.5 mV) re 1V at 1 Pa (condenser) -53 dB (2.2 mV) re 1V at 1 Pa (dynamic) IMPEDANCE: 50 ohms (condenser) 600 ohms (dynamic) MAXIMUM INPUT SOUND LEVEL: 148 dB SPL, 1 kHz at 1% T.H.D. (condenser) DYNAMIC RANGE (typical): 122 dB, 1 kHz at Max SPL (condenser) SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO: 68 dB, 1 kHz at 1 Pa (condenser) PHANTOM POWER REQUIREMENTS: 11-52V DC, 3.5 mA typical (condenser) SWITCHES: Flat, roll-off; 10 dB pad (condenser only) WEIGHT: 320 g (11.3 oz) DIMENSIONS: 143.6 mm (5.65") long, 55.0 mm (2.17") diameter OUTPUT CONNECTOR: Integral 5-pin XLRM-type CABLE: 5.0 m (16.5') dual shielded, 8-conductor cable, 5-pin XLRF-type connector at microphone, two 3-pin XLRM-type output connectors ACCESSORIES FURNISHED: AT8471 isolation clamp for 5/8"-27 threaded stands; 5/8"-27 to 3/8"-16 adapter; soft protective pouch
