The microphone is modular and consists of 2 modular assemblies which are threaded together. The

The AT4051A handles sound pressure levels (SPL) up to 143dB at no greater than 1% THD, a suitable solution for percussion and drums as well as brass and other sources high in volume. The microphone features a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz with a low cut roll-off switch, eliminating low end noise and "popping" below 80Hz.

A Small-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser
Designed for voice/instrument recording or for sound reinforcement applications, the AT4051A has 20-20kHz response with 143dB of maximum sound pressure level, 127dB of dynamic range, and 1% maximum THD.
Modular Design
