The ART T4 Tube Condenser Microphone is perfect for recording both critical vocals and instruments. The dual 35mm gold diaphragm and hand selected low noise 7025 tube deliver unmatched warmth and tone. The unique multi-pattern design delivers nine different polar pattern settings including the standard Cardioid, Figure-8 and omnidirectional patterns with gradient stages between each allowing subtle variations in tone and response. The included external heavy-duty cradle mount suspension virtually eliminates vibration and handling noise, while at the same time safely securing the microphone in any position needed during the recording process.
