Audio-Technica AT4900b-48 Microphone Body

The AT4900b-48 is a body only. An interchangeable capsule must be purchased separately

The AT4900b-48 Microphone Body from Audio-Technica features direct-coupled balanced outputs for a clean signal even in high-output environments, making it free of the distortion that’s often associated with conventional transformer-coupled outputs. Its fast, efficient transient response allows you to transparently reproduce sounds—even when trying to capture the most difficult-to-capture instrumental audio. Versatile and consistent, this modular mic has been designed specifically for professional applications where quality is critical, including live broadcast, studio recording, sound reinforcement, and more.

The AT4900b-48 mic body features a switchable 80 Hz high-pass filter and a 10 dB pad. Like all of Audio-Technica’s gear, it boasts an innovative design and high-quality manufacturing techniques that strive to meet industry-leading standards in consistency and reliability.

The AT4900b-48 is a body only. An interchangeable capsule must be purchased separately. Available in cardioid (AT4051b-EL), omni (AT4049b-EL) and hypercardioid (AT4053b-EL) polar patterns.
