help Audio-Technica AT829 FAQ

Is the Audio-Technica AT829 a lavalier or headset microphone?

It is a miniature cardioid condenser lavalier microphone designed to clip to clothing, not a headset. The standard AT829 configuration has a permanently attached 1.4-meter cable and includes a clothing clip and foam windscreen.

Which wireless transmitters work with the Audio-Technica AT829?

The AT829 is made for Audio-Technica UniPak body-pack wireless transmitters through its HRS 4-pin connector. The cH version uses a screw-down 4-pin connector, while the cW version uses a locking 4-pin connector, so match the termination to your bodypack.

Does the Audio-Technica AT829 reject background noise?

Its cardioid pattern has a 120-degree angle of acceptance and is intended to improve gain before feedback and reduce surrounding sound. Audio-Technica advises placing it about six inches below the chin and keeping clothing from rubbing the capsule.

The microphone includes the AT8434 clothing clip and AT8131 foam windscreen, and its capsule is listed as 24 mm long by 10.5 mm in diameter. The microphone itself weighs about 2.4 grams, making it suitable for unobtrusive presentation or on-camera use.
