Audio-Technica Unveils High Performance ATS99 Handheld Dynamic Microphone

Pro Audio and Studio – Music Instrument News

Audio-Technica has announced the launch of its new ATS99 Hypercardioid Dynamic Microphone, designed to provide exemplary performance for vocalists on stage. The new microphone is engineered for excellent responsiveness and fast transient delivery, with particularly enhanced capture of low- to mid-range sounds at high volume, allowing singers to perform confidently across a broad frequency range.

A combination of the ATS99’s high powered magnet and step-up transformer with a hypercardioid capsule ensures that its sonic performance is complemented by both impressive rejection of unwanted sound and feedback resistance, even in challenging live performance situations.
