The Audio-Technica AT5045P Premium Instrument Microphone Pair consists of two premier studio condenser microphones designed for high-fidelity instrument recording. These side-address microphones provide the performance characteristics of a large-diaphragm condenser within a compact stick-type body. Audio-Technica utilizes its largest single diaphragm in this design to achieve an exceptionally wide dynamic range and pure, realistic sound quality.
The AT5045P features circuitry honed to the essentials to optimize performance. Discrete components are carefully selected and mounted as a single block within a floating internal shock mount. This advanced internal mounting decouples the capsule from the microphone body, providing excellent vibration isolation and minimizing negative effects on the audio signal. A transformer-coupled output ensures a smooth sonic character for professional studio applications.
Audio-Technica hand-assembles and individually inspects every AT5045 microphone to ensure 100% quality control. The microphones are housed in an elegant combination of aluminum and brass, providing a rugged build for long-term use. A high-quality gray finish offers durability and maintains low reflectivity in studio environments.
The AT5045P stereo pair delivers high-SPL capability and exceptionally low noise, making it suitable for a variety of demanding recording scenarios. These microphones are ideal for capturing:
The AT5045P includes innovative AT8481 isolation clamps. These clamps provide secure mounting and versatile positioning while effectively dampening unwanted mechanical noise. For transport and storage, the set comes with a custom hard-shell carrying case featuring die-cut foam compartments to protect both microphones.
