Audio Technica AE5100 Details

The Artist Elite Audio Technica AE5100 large diaphragm cardioid condenser instrument microphone provides uncompromising sound quality for overheads, percussion, acoustic guitar, strings and other acoustic instruments. With rich, warm, accurate sound, the Audio Technica AE5100 also incorporates the most essential ingredients for quality live sound in a choir microphone. Its large-diaphragm capsule delivers accurate, natural response, while its low-profile design permits innovative placement options. With a lower profile than the large studio microphones to which it compares sonically, the Audio Technica AE5100 offers an outstanding performance-to-size ratio. With its low noise and smooth response, the Audio Technica AE5100 is ideal for recording, too.
