Audio-Technica ATM710 Cardioid Condenser Handheld Microphone

This electret singing microphone from the Artist Series range is designed for detailed and faithful voice reproduction. With a capacitor designed for studio-quality performance, the ATM710 provides remarkable clarity. This microphone is equipped with an integral 80Hz low-cut filter that allows easy switching from a flat frequency response to severe attenuation position which reduces the sensitivity of the microphone “pops” when used in proximity to voice. The ATM710 is also equipped with a 10 dB switchable attenuator that reduces the sensitivity of the microphone and provides superior SPL capacity. The cardioid microphone improves isolation of the sound source and reduces pickup of sounds to the sides and rear.

“Static for stage studio quality”

The condenser element of the ATM710 delivers on stage clarity, sharpness and remarkable precision equivalent to the performance of professional studio microphones. Moreover, its highly balanced cardioid ensures a high quality rejection.

“Robust design”

Built for the road, the ATM710 has a multilayer metal grid that provides excellent protection against plosives and sibilance without affecting treble clarity. Its superior anti-shock system significantly reduces handling noise.

“Low-cut filter and fader”

The integrated low-cut filter allows for the easy switching of flat frequency response to attenuate the bass. The 10dB attenuator reduces microphone sensitivity, whilst increasing the sound pressure level, thus increasing the versatility of the ATM710.
