Audio Technica PRO35 Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Product Description

The AUDIO TECHNICA PRO35 is a cardioid condenser microphone designed for professional audio capture in demanding live and studio environments. The cardioid polar pattern focuses pickup on sound originating directly in front of the capsule, rejecting off-axis noise and feedback from monitors. Condenser technology delivers extended frequency response and transient detail that dynamic microphones typically cannot match. The PRO35 is suited for instrument miking, vocal reinforcement, and broadcast applications where consistent, accurate sound reproduction is required. Licensed audio engineers, live sound technicians, and studio recording professionals are the primary installers and operators of this microphone.

The PRO35 falls within the lavaliere and small-diaphragm condenser category, making it well suited for clip-on instrument miking applications such as acoustic guitar, violin, brass, and woodwinds in live performance settings. Its compact form factor allows it to be positioned close to the sound source without obstructing the performer. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for both permanent installed-sound systems and touring rigs where consistent miking positions are required night after night.

Key Features

• Cardioid polar pattern rejects off-axis noise and reduces feedback risk in live environments
• Condenser capsule provides extended frequency response and detailed transient reproduction
• Compact form factor supports close-miking of instruments without obstructing performers
• Single-unit packaging allows targeted channel-by-channel deployment
• Suitable for both live reinforcement and recording applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style cardioid condenser microphone suitable for use with standard phantom-powered microphone preamplifiers and mixing consoles in professional live sound and recording environments.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified audio technician familiar with professional microphone placement techniques and phantom power requirements. Confirm that the connected preamplifier or mixing console supplies the appropriate phantom power voltage before connecting the microphone. Power down or mute the channel on the console before plugging or unplugging the microphone to prevent transient voltage spikes that can damage the capsule. Secure all cable runs to prevent strain on the connector and minimize handling noise during performance.
