The AT4040 side-address condenser microphone features an advanced large diaphragm tensioned specifically to provide smooth, natural sonic characteristics. A marriage of technical precision and artistic inspiration, the AT4040 offers exceptionally low noise, wide dynamic range and high-SPL capability for greatest versatility. This ultra-consistent microphone may be used with confidence in a wide variety of studio and live miking applications, even under the stringent demands of digital recording systems. The AT4040’s low-noise circuitry is symmetrical and transformerless, resulting in exceptional transient response and clean output signals for transparent reproduction of even the most troublesome of instruments and sound effects.

State of the art surface mount electronics ensure compliance with A T's stringent consistency and reliability standards. Precision machined, nickel plated brass, acoustic element baffle provides enhanced element stability and optimal sensitivity. Transformerless circuitry virtually eliminates low frequency distortion and provides superior correlation of high speed transients. Externally polarized (DC bias) true condenser design, Exceptionally low noise, wide dynamic range and high SPL capability for greatest versatility. Technically advanced large diaphragm tensioned specifically to provide smooth, natural sonic characteristics.
