Audio-Technica AE-3000 Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Instrument Microphone

The AE3000 Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone from Audio-Technica is a large-diaphragm side-address microphone designed for capturing instruments rich in transient response. Guitar cabinets, drums, and percussion signals are accurately reproduced without noise and distortion. The capsule features a cardioid polar pattern which effectively minimizes noise at the off-axis sections of the capsule, providing high gain-before-feedback response and minimal ambient noise. A high-pass filter switch eliminates noise below 80 Hz and a -10 dB pad increases headroom when capturing signals at close proximity or at high levels. The microphone is powered by an external 11 to 52V phantom power source.
