DESCRIPTION

Audio-Technica delivers exceptional studio performance with the AT4040, a large-diaphragm side-address cardioid condenser microphone engineered for critical recording and broadcast applications. Built around an externally polarised true condenser capsule and a transformerless circuit design, this microphone offers remarkably transparent and detailed sound reproduction across the full 20 Hz – 20 kHz frequency range.

The AT4040 excels in demanding professional environments thanks to its impressively low 12 dB SPL self-noise and high maximum SPL handling of 145 dB (155 dB with the switchable 10 dB pad engaged). This wide dynamic range makes it equally adept at capturing delicate vocal nuances and high-SPL sources such as guitar amplifiers, brass, and percussion.

  • Large-diaphragm cardioid condenser with externally polarised capsule for pristine detail
  • Transformerless circuitry delivering clean, accurate signal with minimal colouration
  • Switchable 80 Hz high-pass filter for effective proximity effect and low-frequency rumble control
  • Switchable 10 dB pad for handling high-SPL sources with confidence
  • Ultra-low 12 dB self-noise ideal for vocal tracking, voiceover, and acoustic instruments
  • Includes AT8449/SV shock mount and protective carrying pouch
  • Requires 48V phantom power

A proven workhorse in studios worldwide, the AT4040 delivers a versatile, broadcast-grade performance that punches well above its class — making it an outstanding choice for any professional recording or production facility.
