Audio-Technica is now shipping its new AT5047 Cardioid Condenser Microphone. The most recent addition to A-T’s 50 Series (which also includes the AT5040 vocal microphone and AT5045 instrument mic), the AT5047 is a studio microphone that features the same capsule as the AT5040 but with a transformer-coupled output and optimized electronics.
Boasting the widest dynamic range among all Audio-Technica microphones, the AT5047 is equipped with a transformer-coupled output, and said to maintain a constant load output impedance, even when capturing sources at high SPL, resulting in a more stable relationship between the mic and a mic preamp or console input.
The AT5047 features four rectangular two-micron-thick diaphragms, which function together to provide a combined surface area twice that of a standard one-inch circular diaphragm. A-T says that discrete components have been selected and optimized for performance and compatibility with a wide array of microphone preamps and console inputs, and that advanced internal shock mounting decouples the capsule from the microphone body, and the included advanced-design AT8480 shock mount provides superior isolation.
Featuring a housing of aluminum and brass, each AT5047 has been hand-assembled and inspected. A custom hard-shell carrying case with die-cut foam compartments offers protection during storage and transport.
