Real-life comment:
"The AE6100 is an excellent
choice to replace the SM58's and even the Beta 58's. Vocalists
often have on their rider 'SM58 or better' and we put up the
AE6100 and receive positive responses like 'Yeah! This sounds
pretty good!' and 'Who makes this mic? I don't recognize this,
but I love it!' Works well for the sax family, trombones, etc. as well."

Real-life comment:
"So, a large-diaphragm condenser for under $100 -- gotta be a piece of junk, right? Wrong! Audio-Technica spent a bunch of time on the design and 'borrowed' some of the technology from their higher-priced series. This is an entry-level mic for a student type (i.e. someone on a tight budget). To our knowledge and ears, this is the leader in this price category."

- designed to bring the studio-quality
articulation and intelligibility of Audio-Technica's renowned 20 Series to the stage, for crystal-clear vocal performances
- Extended frequency response and superior transient response for smooth, natural sonic characteristics
- High SPL-handling and wide dynamic range provide unmatched versatility
Real-life comment:
"This is hands down THE bargain vocal condenser mic. Put away your SM58's unless you need a hammer. This has great feedback for a vocal condenser... it will give you very nice, crisp highs and plenty of warmth in the low mids. It comes in at a price that is actually below what a lot of dynamic mics sell for. The word from AT is that a lot of the technology for the big brother AT2020 large-diaphragm condenser went
into this mic. Make sure your sound man understands this is a condenser mic, and that it is hotter than a dynamic mic... and to adjust his gain accordingly. We have even used this one on acoustic instruments -- especially in settings where one musician switches instruments during the set."

- studio classic and bluegrass favorite
- low-noise, symmetrical, transformerless circuitry
- exceptional transient response and clean output

- smooth, extended frequency response
- very high SPL-handling capability
- switchable high-pass filter
Real-life comment:
"In 1996, or maybe early 1997, AT
discontinued the very, very nice sounding made-in-Japan small-diaphragm condenser model 4031. The wholesale price at that time was $247. The replacement for this model is the
4041, and if you're looking for a small-diaphragm condenser that handles acoustic guitars, mandolins, and banjos with warmth and ease, this is a good choice. Because of the high SPL levels, it is often used for overheads on drum kits and 'tinkly stuff' (i.e. miscellaneous percussion). It also works well on violins. As with most condenser mics, you need to be very careful when bringing them up in the monitors."

Real-life comment:
"This is a mic we often refer to
as a 'Swiss Army model'. Originally, AT designed it as a clip-on
mic for trap sets. We found that it is incredibly popular on
violins because the Unimount clip holds nicely to the chin rest (so
you don't have to drill any holes in your Strad!). It also works
very well on Celtic harps, since you can clip the mic to the brace
inside the harp, therefore allowing the harpist to lean forward and
lean back without banging into a conventional mic mounted on a mic
stand. If you double-mic a clarinet, you can clip one of these to
the bell of the instrument. Again, because of the ability to carry
high SPL-levels, it is a killer mic for low 'thump' on the Irish bodhran. "

Real-lifemcomment:
"The keyword here is
'side-address'. As a drum overhead, we like it even more than the
4041. In smaller rooms, say less than 200 people, you can put one
up as an overhead, and a kick drum mic, and you'll have a very
complete sound getting cymbals, snare, toms, all with one mic. The
450 also works well on acoustic fretted instruments. We've had good
luck single-micing a concertina, since the side-address feature
covers the fact that the concertina is bellows-driven with sound
coming out of two sides."
