Audio-Technica BP40 Large-Diaphragm Broadcast Microphone

The Audio-Technica BP40 Large-Diaphragm Broadcast Microphone is a high-performance dynamic microphone designed for professional vocal applications. This microphone delivers a rich, natural, condenser-like sound ideal for broadcasting and studio environments. By combining a large-diaphragm design with advanced internal engineering, the BP40 ensures clear and articulate audio reproduction for any broadcast application.

Advanced Diaphragm and Coil Engineering

Floating-Edge Construction

The BP40 features a large-diameter diaphragm utilizing patented floating-edge construction. This design maximizes the surface area of the diaphragm to optimize overall performance and mechanical response.

Electromagnetic Interference Protection

The integrated humbucking voice coil prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI). This component ensures clean signal transmission by neutralizing noise from electronic equipment and power sources common in broadcast studios.

Directional Control and Sound Quality

Hypercardioid Polar Pattern

The hypercardioid polar pattern focuses on the primary sound source while providing superior off-axis rejection. This directional characteristic improves isolation and maximizes gain before feedback, ensuring the voice remains the central focus of the recording.

Vocal Presence and Filtering

Optimized capsule placement allows the microphone to maintain a commanding vocal presence even when the speaker is at a distance from the unit. To maintain audio clarity, the multistage windscreen provides superior internal pop filtering to reduce plosives. A switchable 100 Hz high-pass filter offers additional protection against low-frequency noise and unwanted pops.

Professional Build and Design

Rugged Construction

The BP40 features a rugged, all-metal construction built for dependable use in demanding professional environments. Its stylish, waveform-inspired design complements its technical capabilities, making it a durable and functional tool for professional broadcasters.
