Full Description
View Full DescriptionTight, Precise, and Powerful Shotgun-Mic Design
Shotgun microphones are incredibly versatile devices designed for a wide range of applications. Often referred to as 'Interference Tube' microphones, these types of mics generally utilise directional capsules such as cardioid and supercardioid. The ATR6550 lets you take advantage of both thanks to selectable 'Normal' and 'Tele' modes.
The unique tubular design of shotgun microphones is what allows them to achieve their tight directionality, dramatically reducing ambient noise for much more intelligible sound capture at a variety of distances. The ATR6550 employs two modes, offering exceptional clarity and low-noise performance when recording sources whether they are far-away or up-close. Over recent years, shotgun microphones have decreased in size with a large amount of emphasis on creating a compact solution for portable applications. However, due to the way these types of microphones work, this shorter style is often only useful for recording sound sources with a predominantly high-frequency-based sound. The design of the ATR6550 combats this thanks to its length and Audio Technica's world-class expertise. The ATR6550 boasts a wide frequency response from 70Hz up to 18kHz, providing you with a much more balanced and natural sound. The included camera mount and microphone stand clamp ensure hassle-free mounting options, whilst the permanently-attached cable with a 3.5mm mini-jack output connector allows for quick and easy connectivity to your recording device. The ATR6550 has been designed specifically with video-cameras and DSLRs in mind, and combined with Audio Technica's innovative high-performance design capabilities, you can be sure that your videos will be graced with astounding audio quality no matter what or where you're shoooting.What's In The Box
