Audio-Technica MB4k

The Audio-Technica MB4k is a cardioid condenser microphone. Record vocals and acoustic instruments with flexible battery or phantom powering. Core features include Cardioid pickup, 80 Hz–20 kHz response and Phantom or AA battery power.

The directional pickup pattern concentrates on the sound in front of the capsule and reduces pickup from the sides and rear. This helps establish a focused recording of a voice or instrument, especially when microphone position is used carefully. The result is a flexible starting point for capturing a performance with useful separation from its surroundings.

The condenser design is suited to capturing fine changes in articulation, attack and decay. It can reveal the detail of a vocal line, a picked string or another acoustic source, with placement used to balance proximity and room ambience. Its powering requirements and connection format are listed below so it can be matched to the recording system.

The physical format and supplied mounting accessories make the microphone easy to place within an appropriate setup. Keeping the source position and recording distance consistent helps produce an even take, whether the application is a lesson, a rehearsal, a vocal session or spoken content.
