AUDIO TECHNICA AT 4040

When Audio-Technica first introduced the large diaphragm, side-address AT4040 mic, we couldn't wait to get one down to the studio to see what it could do. And we were impressed! The cardioid AT4040 is the mic to choose for accurate reproduction of acoustic guitars and percussion. You'll find a multitude of other applications for this versatile mic as well.
