help Audio-Technica BP4025 FAQ
Is the Audio-Technica BP4025 a mono cardioid microphone?
No, it is a one-point X/Y stereo microphone containing two cardioid condenser elements at a fixed 120-degree angle. It is intended for field recording, broadcast and stereo ambience rather than ordinary mono vocal capture.
How do you connect the BP4025 to a recorder?
The microphone has a five-pin XLR output and is supplied with a breakout cable terminating in two three-pin XLR connectors. The recorder therefore needs two microphone inputs with phantom power to capture its left and right channels.
Can the BP4025 record loud concerts or motorsports?
Yes, its maximum input level is 145 dB SPL and rises to 155 dB SPL with the built-in 10 dB pad engaged. That substantial headroom is useful for loud music, effects and location recording.
Does the BP4025 have controls for wind and low-frequency rumble?
It includes an 80 Hz low-cut filter as well as the 10 dB pad. Outdoor recording still calls for a suitable windshield because the filter cannot replace physical wind protection around the capsules.
