The Audio-Technica AT8035 Line + Gradient (Shotgun) Condenser Microphone is a professional-grade solution for demanding Location Sound Situations. With its 369mm shotgun design, this microphone is perfectly suited for capturing long-distance sound, offering a narrow acceptance angle that ensures pinpoint focus on your target audio. It excels in noisy environments, with excellent rejection of sound from the sides and rear.
Equipped with a switchable 80Hz low-frequency roll-off, the AT8035 reduces the pickup of unwanted ambient noise such as traffic, ventilation, or room reverberation, ensuring clean and precise sound capture. Whether on location or in the field, this microphone guarantees high intelligibility.
The AT8035 operates on either phantom or battery power for versatility, making it compatible with a wide range of devices. With additional accessories like a foam windscreen, stand clamp, and carrying case, it’s ready for any situation.
