AT895 specifications

The Audio-Technica AT895 is a high-performance shotgun microphone designed to capture audio with precision and clarity, making it an ideal choice for professionals in the fields of broadcasting, film production, and live sound reinforcement. Known for its superior directional characteristics and advanced features, the AT895 stands out in the competitive landscape of high-end microphones.

One of the primary features of the AT895 is its hypercardioid polar pattern, which enables it to effectively isolate sound sources while minimizing background noise. This characteristic is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple sound sources compete for attention, ensuring that the microphone captures the desired audio without unwanted interference.

The AT895 employs a high-frequency response range, extending up to 20 kHz, allowing it to reproduce even the most nuanced audio details. This wide frequency range is coupled with a low self-noise level, enabling the microphone to produce clear audio recordings even at low sound levels. The microphone also features a robust construction, designed to withstand the rigors of professional use, making it a reliable choice for on-location recording.

In terms of technology, the AT895 incorporates Audio-Technica's advanced signal processing, which helps ensure optimal sound quality. The microphone's internal circuitry is engineered to provide a linear frequency response, contributing to the accuracy and naturalness of recorded audio. Additionally, the AT895 utilizes a specialized shock mount system that reduces handling noise and vibration, further enhancing audio fidelity.

Moreover, the AT895 is equipped with a switchable low-frequency roll-off filter, which helps eliminate low-frequency rumble and handling noise. This feature is particularly useful in outdoor settings where wind and environmental noise can pose challenges. The microphone also includes a windscreen to reduce wind noise, enhancing its usability in various atmospheric conditions.

With its combination of advanced technology, thoughtful design, and professional-grade performance, the Audio-Technica AT895 has become a favored tool for audio engineers and content creators alike. Whether used for interviews, voiceover work, or field production, the AT895 delivers exceptional sound quality, making it a valuable addition to any audio toolkit.
