Audio-Technica 3000 Series Interchangeable Microphone Capsules
The Audio-Technica 3000 Series capsules are interchangeable microphone heads for the ATW-T3202 handheld transmitter (3000 Series Fourth Generation), and they also fit the ATW-T5202 (5000 Series Third Generation) and ATW-T6002xS (6000 Series) handhelds.
Each capsule attaches with an industry-standard interchangeable thread and is equivalent to the capsule of a wired Audio-Technica microphone. Its frequency response depends on the transmitter it is fitted to.
Two are cardioid dynamic capsules (ATW-C510 and ATW-C4100), one is a hypercardioid dynamic (ATW-C6100), and three are cardioid condensers (ATW-C710, ATW-C3300, and ATW-C5400).
