It includes two cables - one with a balanced XLR output and one with an unbalanced TRS output - so the AT8022 is ready to integrate into whatever system you need. Both compact and lightweight, the AT8022 is ideal for video camera-mounting, interviewing, and home recording situations. It also pairs particularly well with a portable field recorder.

Stereo condenser with an XY configuration
The Audio-Technica AT8022 features a stereo pair of condenser microphones that are arranged in an XY arrangement, avoiding any issues with phase cancellation. The microphone also sports a switchable 80Hz highpass filter, so you can eliminate low end rumble.

Powered by battery or phantom power
Adding to its mobile convenience, the AT8022 can be powered by phantom power when it's available. Or, you can just as easily power it by an onboard battery. The microphone includes two cables - one with an unbalanced TRS output and one with a balanced XLR output - so you can instantly use it whichever way works best for your needs.

Most Pro Quality Audio that Is Easily Afortable

by Hamit Campos from Danburry CT

I just love this mike. The Stereo immage is nice and wide, it gives you that big fat crisp and really bassy studio effect. It has served me well, It has exeaded my expections from how it was discribed... read more [+] to me. I also love how it's hotter then it's big brothers. I can use it just fine with the middle mike sencitivity. I really recomend this mike if you want real acuricy and truth to your recordings. The next thing I love is that in that it is a some what hot mike as I said before, it seems to addapt to what ever recorder or system you use it with.Basicly, the more floornoise your recorder has, the more floor it will give you. This really is a wanderfull mike. It really does live up to the reputation of it big brothers the AT822 and AT825. All though, and this why I gave it 5 stars, it really a bit more like the AT825. Really prue and crisp. You won't regret this purchase, it gives even my worst recorder some life. Your videos will sound really great. For thoughs of you who have heard it, immagine for a second if tyou will connecting an AT825 to your camera. That's how good your vids will sound provided your camera has really good pre-amps, and is really good sounding it self. But, even if not, it will still make it sound the best it can. I really do agree that this mike can be used in a studio. It does really sound like really does belong in a studio. This is now my mike of choise, I wouldn't use anything else. close [-]

Clean sounding stereo mic

For the price, I should give it 5 stars but in general I'll give it a very solid 4. Amazing separation front right to left and a very clean and natural tone.

I am very happy with the product and service I received. I have yet to experience such personalized service from audio/music companies in my hometown. I will certainly make more purchases from Sweetwater again. If you have the product I need, I will purchase it from Sweetwater. The service is exceptional. I have never been treated with such thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly service from any of the music companies located in Saint Louis, MO.
