It is a portable, robust, and versatile choice for anyone looking for incredible audio for their videos.
The ATR6550 is a tight, precise, and powerful shotgun microphone. Shotgun microphones, also known as Interference Tube microphones, are versatile devices used in various applications. They utilize directional capsules, such as cardioid and supercardioid, to achieve their tight directionality. The ATR6550 offers selectable Normal and Tele modes, allowing for exceptional clarity and low-noise performance when recording sources at different distances. Its tubular design dramatically reduces ambient noise and captures more intelligible sound. Unlike shorter shotgun microphones that are mainly suitable for high-frequency sound sources, the ATR6550’s length ensures a balanced and natural sound with a wide frequency response from 70Hz to 18kHz.
The ATR6550 comes with convenient mounting options. It includes a camera mount and microphone stand clamp for hassle-free mounting to a recording device. It features a permanently-attached cable with a 3.5mm mini-jack output connector for easy connectivity. The microphone has been specifically designed for video cameras and DSLRs, combining Audio Technica’s expertise in high-performance design. It guarantees astounding audio quality for your videos, regardless of the shooting location.
