AUDIO TECHNICA AT8033 Cardioid Studio Condenser Microphone

Ideal for general audio acquisition such as interviews, acoustic guitar, percussion, overheads, vocals and more, the AT8033 features high-SPL capability and wide frequency response. Its cardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear, improving isolation of desired sound source. The mic excels in both studio and stage applications. It operates on battery or phantom power.
