Audio-Technica AT2035 Cardioid Condenser Microphone
Designed for home, project, and professional studios as well as live performance, the Audio-Technica AT2035 is a side-address cardioid condenser microphone whose large diaphragm gives smooth, natural sound with fine detail and low noise.
It has a switchable 80 Hz high-pass filter and a 10 dB pad. The filter reduces popping in close vocal use, along with low-frequency ambient noise such as traffic and air-handling systems, room reverberation, and mechanically coupled vibration. With the pad engaged, the AT2035 handles up to 158 dB SPL, against 148 dB SPL without it.
Self-noise is 12 dB SPL, with an 82 dB signal-to-noise ratio and a 136 dB dynamic range. The AT2035 runs on 11 to 52 V phantom power and sends a balanced, low-impedance signal from an integral 3-pin XLR connector. Its construction is rugged.
The included AT8458 shock mount isolates the microphone and fits any stand with 5/8″-27 threads. The AT2035 also comes with a 5/8″-27 to 3/8″-16 threaded adapter and a soft protective pouch. For the best isolation, secure the cable to the stand or boom and leave a slack loop at the microphone.
