хороший микрофон
Trupskiy 30.03.2021
брал at4040 на замену своему rode nt-1. конечно, разница весьма ощутимая. Более того, на мужском голосе микрофон звучит гораздо лучше, чем в примерах на сайте, хотя я подключил его напрямую в motu microbook 2c. примеры для томана записывались через более серьезное оборудование, но мой результат мне понравился гораздо больше. возможно, тут вокалисту микрофон не подошел. в общем, если подытожить, своих денег ат 4040 однозначно стоит

Not my cup of tea.
Nick Namy 12.01.2023
1st of all let me make clear that this microphone isn't bad, but this review is based on my taste.
U was looking for a vocal microphone and this mic juat didn't cut it for my voice. I plugged it into a Audient id14 and, on those preamps, is just sound too "shrill" on my voice. Somehow "spiky" and harsh at times. That said, it could just be my voice or the preamps.
I was 1st going to give it a 3 star rating but then I remebered what it did on my acoustic guitar and as a drum room mic/overhead/just behind the drummer mic. This thing does really well on those instruments.
If you are looking for an all around instrument microphone I doubt you will go wrong with this one. It wasn't my thing because I was looking for a vocal microphone and it didn't suit my voice, but as a versitile instrument microphone the at4040 works.
Also it feels sturdy and my guess is it won't give out soon. I had an at2020 that i banged around for years and it is still going strong.

it's MAGIC
Sasha121 21.03.2021
The best microphone I have ever worked with, it is 300% neutral, like plasticine - do what you want, of course, for professionals who create the right color for the composition themselves!

Absolutely great microphone on a budget
O B 29.03.2020
I bought this microphone after considering a few other equivalent makes and models in the same price range, and have no regrets. It is a work horse, has a versatile flat sound, without adding colouring which makes it a great baseline to shape while mixing. Highly recommended!

Love this mic. It seems to have a better and warmer range than some of my other mics for Voice Overs, and it's become one of my standard mics for everyday usage.

Great value
Anonymous 02.10.2014
Was fortunate to get a loan of a few mics from a studio (SM7b, C1000, etc.) and this was way ahead of the rest in terms of a smooth sound. I wanted something versatile and this has worked extremely well on vocals, violins and guitars so far.

Bang For The Buck!
Jubu Jay 19.05.2024
I use this Microphone for Vocals (Male and Female) and Acoustic Guitars, As someone who produces modern Pop music my biggest challenge is getting Vocals sounding upfront without being Harsh and this microphone does this almost perfectly for me. Guitars sound decent also. Would Recommend 10/10.
