Audio-Technica AT4055 Handheld Cardioid Condenser Microphone

The AT4055 is a large-diaphragm, pressure-gradient capacitor microphone with a uniform cardioid polar pattern. The frequency response is smooth over an extended 20-20,000 Hz range. Based on the same advanced technology used in 40 Series studio microphones, the AT4055 is the result of a dedicated effort by Audio-Technica to bring studio-quality sound to the stage. It is designed for use in the most demanding sound reinforcement and recording applications.

The AT4055 is the culmination of extensive field evaluations in live-sound environments with resultant significant advances in microphone performance factors. It features very low self-noise, with a transformer-coupled output optimized for live-sound applications.

An extended, flat low-frequency response adds extra body and depth to vocals, and highlights the performance of on-stage instruments.
