MPN #AE2500
Audio-Technica AE2500, Dual-element Cardioid Instrument Microphone. The ultimate kick-drum mic features cardioid condenser and dynamic capsules combined in one housing.
The dynamic element delivers the aggressive attack of the beater; the condenser captures the round tonalities of the shell. Two layers of resistive mesh form multiple densities over the dynamic element's side-entry ports, exercising precise control over the time at which off-axis signals arrive at the diaphragm. The condenser diaphragm is optimally tensioned and aged for long-term consistency and stability.
Features
Revolutionary dual-element design represents a ground-breaking transducer achievementTwo elements (condenser and dynamic) are enclosed in a single housingDynamic element delivers the aggressive attack of the beater while the condenser captures the round tonalities of the shellElements are positioned in a perfect phase relationship, something practically unachievable with two separate microphonesRobust design for enduring dependability on the roadIntegral 80 Hz HPF switch and 10 dB pad on condenser elementIncludes isolation clamp for shock protection, secure mounting and easy positioningIncludes a 16.5' (5 m) cable (5-pin XLRF to two standard 3-pin XLRM connectors) for separate control over each element
