AT5045

Overview

Capture instruments with studio precision using the Audio-Technica AT5045 instrument condenser microphone. Engineered to deliver pristine, natural tone and exceptional dynamic range, the AT5045 excels on acoustic guitar, strings, percussion and overheads — making it a go-to choice for recording studios, live sound engineers and AV integrators. The stick-style cardioid condenser design offers more diaphragm surface than many large-diaphragm side-address mics, providing detailed transient response and low self-noise across a 20 Hz–20 kHz frequency range. With a sensitivity of -35 dB and robust high-SPL handling, the AT5045 preserves nuance on quiet passages and clarity on louder sources. Built for professional environments, its aluminum and brass housing, floating internal shock mount and included AT8481 isolation clamp minimize vibration and handling noise for dependable results in broadcast, monitoring, and even security/surveillance audio capture. XLR connectivity and transformer-coupled output ensure smooth integration into consoles, recorders and AV racks. Add the Audio-Technica AT5045 to your mic locker to upgrade instrument tracking, live reinforcement, or critical monitoring applications — order now to hear the difference.
