Audio-Technica ATM250 Instrument Microphone, Dynamic, Hypercardioid

Audio-Technica ATM250 – Dynamic Instrument Microphone with Hypercardioid

The Audio-Technica ATM250 is a dynamic instrument microphone specifically designed for capturing instruments at high sound pressure levels. It is ideal for use on stage and in the studio.

• The dynamic capsule handles extreme volumes without distortion – perfect for loud guitar amplifiers and drums.
• The hypercardioid polar pattern rejects unwanted side noise and ensures clear isolation of the desired sound.
• The rugged metal housing protects the microphone from bumps and wear during frequent stage use.
• The simple handling without switchable polar pattern allows quick and reliable positioning.
• 24 months of manufacturer's warranty ensure long-term reliability and investment security.

What sets the ATM250 apart

Compared to microphones with a wider polar pattern, the ATM250 offers stronger rejection of ambient noise, which is crucial during live performances with multiple instruments. The dynamic design delivers clean sound without distortion even at very high sound pressure levels.

Ideal for...

The ATM250 was developed for musicians and sound engineers who need a reliable microphone solution for loud instruments. It is particularly suitable for guitar amplifiers, snare drums, toms, and other high-level sound sources.

How to use the ATM250

Position the microphone at a distance of two to five centimeters from the sound source to take advantage of the proximity effect. Aim the main axis of the microphone directly at the instrument, as the hypercardioid has a narrow pickup angle. Secure it with a standard microphone stand.
