Audio Technica 8035, Condenser Shotgun

The Audio Technica 8035 is ideal for videos and movies but should be installed outside of the image, in other words, out of camera range. This type of microphone, provided with an interference tube in front of the capsule, which cancels a large part of its off-axis.Audio-Technica’s Line and Gradient Condenser Microphones combine a directional capsule (“gradient”) and an interference tube which removes the sound from the rear. Generally, the interference tube of this type of microphone can be extended to reduce the acceptance angle and thus increase the sound capture distance. Short condenser microphones do not have as long a range as shotgun models, but in some cases are preferred for their greater acceptance angle, when the accuracy of the source is less important.
