Featuring direct-coupled balanced outputs for clean signals in high-output conditions, the microphone is totally free of the distortion associated with conventional transformer-coupled outputs. And its fast response to transients contributes to the open, transparent reproduction of even the most difficult-to-capture instruments. The microphone is fully RoHS-compliant – free from all substances specified in the EU directive on the reduction of hazardous substances (RoHS).  The AT4053b consists of two modular subassemblies: an AT4900b-48 body and an AT4053b-EL hypercardioid head capsule (both available separately). Additional interchangeable capsules are available in omnidirectional (AT4049b-EL) and cardioid (AT4051b-EL).\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSpecially engineered to meet the most critical acoustic requirements of professional recording, broadcast and sound reinforcement\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eHypercardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear, improving isolation of desired sound source\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eDirect-coupled, balanced output results in a clean signal even under high-output conditions\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eTransformerless circuitry virtually eliminates low-frequency distortion and provides superior correlation of high-speed transients\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSwitchable 80 Hz hi-pass filter and 10 dB pad\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eRugged turned-brass microphone housing for enduring dependability\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eState-of-the-art design and manufacturing techniques ensure compliance with A-T’s stringent consistency and reliability standards\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eRoHS-compliant – free from all substances specified in the EU directive on the reduction of hazardous substances (RoHS)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e   \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul\u003e     \u003cli\u003eType: Small Diaphragm Condenser\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003ePolar Pattern: Hypercardioid\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eFrequency Range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 145 dB SPL, 155 dB SPL with pad\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eOutput: 1x XLR 3-Pin\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003ePower Sources: Phantom Power\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eOrientation: End Address\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eCircuitry: Solid-State\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003ePad: -10 dB\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eHigh-Pass Filter: 80 Hz, 12 dB\/Octave\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eSensitivity: -34 dB\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eDynamic Range: 129 dB\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eEquivalent Noise Level: 16 dB\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eOperating Voltage: 48 V\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eColor: Black\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eDimensions: ø: 0.83 x L: 6.1\" \/ ø: 21 x L: 154.94 mm\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eWeight: 4.48 oz \/ 127 g\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003ePackage Weight: 1.095 lb\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eBox Dimensions (LxWxH): 10.8 x 4.6 x 1.8\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e    Manufacturer: Audio-Technica\u003cbr\u003eModel: AT4053B\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I327226-N-0-WHXX\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 042005156023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Musictoner Musictoner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Musictoner has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
