The Audio-Technica ATW-C3300 is an interchangeable, cardioid condenser microphone capsule compatible with the atw-t3202 3000 Series (fourth generation) handheld transmitter. The cardioid polar pattern helps control feedback and reduces the pickup of unwanted, off-axis sounds. The multi-stage grille provides protection against plosives and sibilance without compromising clarity, while the condenser transducer delivers a wide, 30 Hz to 18 kHz linear frequency response with a smooth, natural sound at high frequencies, ideal for speech and close-up vocal use in live-sound or studio applications.
