Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone

Features

AT4022

ideal for piano and for all acoustic instruments

The low-profile AT4022 omnidirectional condenser recording mic is outstanding for piano, acoustic guitar, and other acoustic instruments. With a flat, extended frequency response and wide dynamic range ideal for critical studio and live applications, the AT4022 handles high SPLs with ease. The microphone’s omnidirectional polar pattern preserves the “sound” of the recording location, delivers flat response and freedom from proximity effect. Its low-mass diaphragm improves transient response and reduces handling/mechanical noise transfer.

  • Outstanding performance and rugged construction, ideal for critical studio & live applications
  • High SPL handling and wide dynamic range
  • Flat, extended frequency response
  • Switchable 80 Hz hi-pass filter and 10 dB pad
  • Omnidirectional polar pattern provides maximum ambient pickup
  • Low self noise perfectly suited for digital recording equipment
  • Exceptional reproduction of low frequency sounds
  • Low-mass element for superb transient response
  • Product designed and manufactured in Japan, guaranteed for 15 years

“perfect for use with acoustic instruments”

With its omnidirectional polar pattern and flat frequency range, the AT4022 is perfect for capturing acoustic instruments. Its wide dynamic range allows it to be equally at home on stage, in the studio.

“omnidirectional polar pattern”

The microphone’s omnidirectional polar pattern preserves the “sound” of the recording location, delivers flat response and freedom from proximity effect.

“Exceptional low frequency response”

Its low-mass diaphragm improves transient response and reduces handling/mechanical noise transfer. Furthermore, with its sound pressure maxim being between 146dB and 156dB (with the attenuator pad), it is also the perfect choice for capturing drums, and other percussion instruments.

low-cut filter

The AT4022 features a 80Hz low-cut filter and a switchable -10dB attenuator pad to increase the versatility of the microphone.

high quality build

Solid reliability and a consistency in sound quality are among the highlights of the AT4022.

AT8405a shock mount

The AT8405a shock mount that comes with the AT4022 is also be suitable for all cylindrical microphones with a diameter of 21mm.

protective case

The AT4022 fits neatly into its very own rigid carry case with room for the shock mount and windscreen too.
