Breaking the US$1000-barrier in its class, the AT4033a represents the pinnacle of professional studio condenser microphone engineering. This latest edition of the legendary AT4033 microphone features side-address design with low-noise, symmetrical, transformerless circuitry that produces exceptional transient response and remarkably clean output signals.
Recognised as both a studio classic and bluegrass favourite, the AT4033 cardioid studio condenser has earned its reputation through consistent professional performance. The microphone’s sonic signature is characterised by a strong up-front presence that has made it a 40 Series pro-audio classic amongst recording professionals.
The AT4033a incorporates an 80Hz high-pass filter that switches effortlessly between flat frequency response and low-end roll-off functionality. This feature effectively diminishes ambient noise and reduces popping when recording closely-miked vocals, providing greater recording flexibility.
Each AT4033a comes complete with the AT8449a shock mount, ensuring superior isolation from handling noise and vibrations during recording sessions.
- A strong up-front presence characterises the sonic signature of this versatile pro-audio classic
- Transformerless circuitry virtually eliminates low-frequency distortion and provides superior correlation of high-speed transients
- Precision-machined, nickel-plated brass, acoustic element baffle provides enhanced element stability and optimal sensitivity
- The 2-micron-thick, vapour-deposited gold diaphragm undergoes a five-step aging process so that the optimum characteristics achieved remain constant over years of use
- Floating-construction capsule assembly provides isolation from noise and vibration
- Open acoustical environment of the symmetrical housing assembly minimises unwanted internal reflections
- State-of-the-art surface-mount electronics ensure compliance with Audio-Technica's stringent consistency and reliability standards
