Audio-technica ATM610a

Tuned for clear, detailed, extended-range reproduction of lead and backup vocals, the ATM610a dynamic vocal mic from Audio-Technica is equipped with a rare-earth magnet for high output, a tight hypercardioid polar pattern for direct sound, and multi-stage grille design for excellent protection against plosives. The microphone features a uniquely designed internal shock mount design that will reduce handling and stage noise.

The hypercardioid polar pattern of the ATM610a is more sensitive to sound originating directly in front of the element, making it useful for controlling feedback, reducing pickup of unwanted sounds and providing isolation between performers. The microphone is enclosed in a rugged housing, and its multi-stage windscreen effectively controls popping, distortion from sibilant sounds and wind noise. The included AT8470 Quiet-FlexTM stand clamp permits mounting on any microphone stand with 5/8"-27 threads.
