The AT4053b Hypercardioid Condenser Microphone Kit 1 is a B&H Kit that features the AT4053b from Audio Technica, a microphone engineered to meet the critical acoustic requirements of professional recording, broadcast and sound reinforcement. Its hypercardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear, improving isolation of the desired sound source.

The microphone is complimented by a universal shock mount, a 7+ foot cabled boom pole, a boom pole bag and a long, right-angled XLR cable.

    Comments about Audio-Technica AT4053b Hypercardioid Condenser Microphone Kit 1:

    I bought this Kit specifically for the AT4053b. After a ton of research, I felt this was the best bang for the buck. I've only had it for a few days, but my initial tests sound amazing. Obviously there are other mics that are considered industry standards, but if your on a budget, you can't beat this kit. It came nicely packaged and the pole and mic are incredibly light. My only complaint so far would be there's a little rattle at the base of the pole where the XLR connects. But overall I'm very pleased. Just FYI, I wasn't that familiar with Hypercardioid mics, but I knew there had to be an option for interior dialogue, that beat the issues with my shotgun. After a few tests I realized you could easily keep the mic out of frame at a distance of almost 2 feet and still maintain stellar audio. And working the mic between multiple talents is extremely easy due to it's reach and weight.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
