Audio-Technica Pro 70 Cardioid Lavalier Microphone
Key Features
  • For Vocal & Acoustic Guitar Applications
  • Cardioid Polar Pattern
  • Switchable Low-Frequency Roll-Off
  • Operates on Battery or Phantom Power
The Audio-Technica Pro 70 is a cardioid lavalier microphone designed for vocal or instrument capturing in recording or sound reinforcement applications. The frequency response favors the mid-range frequencies of instruments and vocals while minimizing noise registering at high and low frequencies.

The cardioid polar pattern is effective in minimizing pickup at the off-axis sections of the microphone capsule. The result is improved signal before feedback response and minimal ambiance pickup. A low frequency roll-off switch further reduces low frequency noise due to hum, wind etc. The provided UM3 power supply provides phantom power with a single 1.5V AA battery or external phantom power source. The UM3 provides a standard 3-pin XLR output connection to mixers, preamplifiers, cameras etc.

How can I connect the Audio-Technica Pro 70 to my Macbook Pro?
Asked by: Ljuba
The Audio-Technica Pro 70 Cardioid Lavalier Microphone can be adapted for connection to a Macbook with an audio interface that offers an XLR input connection. A simple option such as the Polsen XLR-USB-48 XLR to USB Audio Interface (BH #POXLRUSB48) could satisfy this criteria. A more popular option could be found in the Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2x2 USB Audio Interface (BH #FOSCARSOLO3G).

is there a good wind screen for this microphone? ...

is there a good wind screen for this microphone? It is very sensitive to wind.
Asked by: John
Many of the Auray or Rycote windscreens or foam will work. Go to the Microphone product page on the B&H site then click on accessories - wind protection. I tape the mic to the talents skin under their collar using Bandaids - the adhesive is specially made to stick to skin and the cotton pad on the bandaid helps separate the mic from clothing rubbing noise.

question

i am a youtuber, would this work with pranks? like use it as a mic with a distant camera and itd record the audio??
Asked by: Noah M.
Unfortunately not. The Audio-Technica Pro 70 is not a wireless mic. It has a standard XLR mic cable. If you want to record audio at a distance from your camera then you would need to buy a wireless system.

question

Would this be compatible with a Panasonic GH4 video camera? Or is there a particular adapter/connector required?
Asked by: Anonymous
It has a full-size XLR connection. What input does your camera need? If you've got pro XLR you're all set. This is a great mic! If you have an 1/8 input, this isn't your microphone. :(

question

I bought two of these mics. I record a podcast in a car and use these mics. The problem is that it seems that any movement of the mic cable causes feedback in the recording... I don't understand why it is so sensitive. An arm brushing up to the mic cause noticeable audio distortion. any ideas?
Asked by: Kristopher L.
could be a bad cable, or connection. If same thing is happening with both mics, try either with windscreen on, with windscreen off.
