Capture High Quality Audio Recordings

This microphone features a hyper-cardioid polar pattern capable of high-sensitivity sound pickups. It is most sensitive to the on-axis sound, to where you point the microphone, and also capable of capturing off-axis tones, for bass-rich sounds when the microphone is pointed slightly away from the talent. It is more directional than average cardioid microphones because it can capture sound source from a long distance. It efficiently records the primary sound source with clean, flat, and natural tones. The hyper-cardioid pattern has great use in an atmosphere where noise isolation is required.

Smart Humbucking coil

This microphone has two coils rather than one; the humbucking coil provides a dynamic quality to the microphone by effectively minimizing those annoying electrical hums and other extraneous noises that can affect single-coil pickups. This feature easily eliminates one of the biggest hurdles commonly faced during sound recordings or broadcasts.

Internal Pop Filtering

The Audio-Technica BP40 sound capsule is placed within a multistage windscreen covered in a compact and sturdy metal housing. This windscreen provides superb internal pop filtering to eliminate vocal plosives and handling noise delivering you with a clean, noise-free sound replication.

FAQs:

Do you need a preamp to have maximum gain during recording an instrument with the Audio-Technica BP40?

Although the Audio-Technica BP40 can provide a nice gain before feedback, it is always good to have a preamp for rich sound quality. For example, if you are using this for an instrument recording purpose, then bass and electric instruments can be easily recorded but a preamp will be required for acoustic guitar.

Audio-Technica BP40 is equipped with a multistage windscreen internal pop filter. You do not need an additional pop filter to use with this product. The built-in pop filter can easily eliminate ambient noises and plosives.

When should you use the hyper-cardioid capsule featured by this microphone?

The Audio-Technica BP40 features a hyper-cardioid capsule that makes it ideal for recording high quality sound for vocals and broadcasting audio applications. You can also use it with a boom pole to record films, to capture specific sounds in the environment, to mic closely positioned sound sources, like drums.
