Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the ATM610a and the ATM510?
The ATM610a has a tighter hypercardioid pattern and an extended 40 Hz to 16,000 Hz response, while the ATM510 is cardioid with a 90 Hz to 16,000 Hz response. Choose the ATM610a for loud stages, monitors, and stronger feedback rejection, and the ATM510 for general-purpose cardioid vocals.
Why choose a hypercardioid mic like the ATM610a?
A hypercardioid pattern picks up sound from a narrower angle in front of the mic and rejects more from the sides and rear, which improves isolation and feedback control. This makes the ATM610a well suited to loud stages, high monitor levels, and situations with several vocalists close together.
Does the ATM610a need phantom power?
No, the ATM610a is a dynamic microphone, so it does not require phantom power. You can plug it straight into a mixer or PA system using a standard XLR cable.
