DESCRIPTION

The Audio-Technica ATM450 is a side-address cardioid condenser microphone engineered for critical instrument applications in both live sound and studio environments. Its unique side-address design enables low-profile positioning in tight spaces — ideal for miking inside pianos, under cymbals, or close to acoustic guitar sound holes where traditional end-address microphones would be impractical.

Built around a precision small-diaphragm condenser element, the ATM450 delivers detailed, transparent audio capture with excellent transient response across a wide 40 Hz – 20 kHz frequency range. The tight cardioid polar pattern provides superior off-axis rejection, making it a dependable choice for busy stages and multi-source environments where isolation is essential.

  • Side-address design for discreet, flexible placement on instruments
  • Switchable 80 Hz high-pass filter to control proximity effect and low-frequency rumble
  • 10 dB pad for handling high-SPL sources up to 159 dB without distortion
  • Cardioid polar pattern for focused pickup and excellent bleed rejection
  • Rugged metal construction built to withstand the demands of touring and installed sound
  • Requires 11–52V phantom power

Whether deployed as a drum overhead, piano mic, or acoustic instrument capture solution, the ATM450 offers professional-grade performance and versatile mounting options that audio engineers and system integrators can rely on night after night.
