About Audio-Technica AE-3300

FEATURED REVIEWS

I used since 2003. Has outstanding subtle voice qualities.

By Robert

Love this mic. I have had no need to replace or upgrade. Really adds to the quality of my performance. Couldn't ask for more.

From the stage to the studio, the Audio-Technica AE-3300 Cardioid Condenser Handheld Microphone stands as a testament to superior audio capture for professionals who demand nothing less than the best. With its expansive frequency response ranging from 30Hz to 18kHz, this microphone is engineered to deliver a detailed and natural sound profile, making it an excellent choice for both vocal performances and instrument recordings.

The AE-3300's heart lies in its high-quality cardioid condenser element, a feature shared with the renowned AT4033 microphone, ensuring that your recordings are imbued with clarity and precision. This cardioid polar pattern is meticulously designed to focus on sound directly in front of the microphone while significantly reducing unwanted ambient noise from the sides and rear. This selective sensitivity is particularly beneficial in live settings, where it helps to isolate the performer's voice from the crowd and diminish the likelihood of feedback from monitors and speakers.

Durability is a hallmark of the AE-3300, with its rugged construction ready to withstand the rigors of touring and frequent handling. The microphone's grille is not only robust but also incorporates multiple layers of wind and pop noise protection, preserving the integrity of your sound against plosives and breath noise. Anti-shock engineering further safeguards the microphone's element, ensuring that mechanical vibrations and handling noise do not compromise your audio quality.

Whether you're capturing the nuances of a vocal performance, the dynamic range of an instrument, or seeking a reliable tool for ENG/EFP applications, the AE-3300's combination of professional-grade sound fidelity, versatile application, and resilient build quality makes it a standout choice. Its reliable performance has earned accolades from users who appreciate its contribution to enhancing the quality of their work without the need for constant upgrades or replacements.

In summary, the Audio-Technica AE-3300 is a high-quality, durable, and professional cardioid condenser microphone that offers versatility and reliability for a wide range of audio applications. Its superior design and exceptional sound reproduction capabilities make it a preferred choice for discerning audio professionals seeking to capture every detail with impeccable clarity.
