Audio Technica AT8015 Line Gradient Microphone

Product Description

The AUDIO TECHNICA AT8015 is a line plus gradient microphone designed for professional audio capture in controlled acoustic environments. This type of microphone uses a combination of line and gradient pickup principles to achieve strong directional rejection of off-axis sound sources, making it well-suited for applications where ambient noise isolation is a priority. It is typically installed by audio-visual integrators, broadcast engineers, and licensed sound contractors working in fixed installations or production settings.

The AT8015 is used in surface-mount wired microphone applications, including conference rooms, broadcast studios, lecture halls, and performance venues where a discreet, fixed microphone position is required. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for professional installation rather than consumer self-install.

Key Features

• Line plus gradient pickup design for strong directional audio capture
• Wired surface-mount configuration for fixed installation use
• Compact form factor suited for discreet placement in professional environments
• Single-unit packaging for straightforward procurement and deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wired surface-mount microphone for professional fixed-installation audio systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed audio-visual integrator or sound contractor familiar with professional microphone wiring and signal routing standards. Power down the mixing console or preamplifier input before connecting or disconnecting the microphone. Follow applicable local electrical and AV installation codes when routing cabling through walls or ceilings. Do not exceed the microphone input impedance rating of the connected preamplifier stage.
