Audio-Technica ATM350a Instrument Microphone System

Audio-Technica’s ATM350a Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone comes in six systems offering mounting solutions for a variety of instruments, including woodwinds, strings, brass, percussion, drums and piano.

Following the ATM350, the ATM350a is capable of handling 159dB maximum SPL, a 10dB increase over its predecessor. This allows the mic to cope with a greater range of extremely powerful, dynamic sound sources. Like the ATM350, the new mic features a cardioid polar pattern that reduces side and rear pickup and protects against feedback. The mic’s in-line power module incorporates a switchable 80Hz hi-pass filter to help control undesired ambient noise.

The six ATM350a Microphone Systems combine the instrument microphone with unique UniMount components, giving sound engineers and musicians plenty of dependable mounting options when working on stage or in the studio. Options include a rugged drum mount, all-new magnetic piano mount, upgraded universal clip-on mount, expandable woodwind mount, and two strong, flexible goosenecks (5-inch and 9-inch) that can be attached to any of the mounts.
