Audio Technica AT4050 Studio Condenser Microphone

The AT4050 is a transformerless, multiple-pattern studio microphone designed for use in the most demanding applications. It utilizes dual gold-plated, aged, "large-diaphragm" condenser elements for extended frequency response. The microphone polar pattern can be switched for cardioid, omnidirectional or figure-of-eight operation. This, coupled with low-noise transformerless electronics, makes this microphone ideal for the most critical digital recordings. Learn More...

Sound:
Sounds identical to me to the 414 ULS B. these mics are all for those who can't afford the Neuman U87. I usually cut bit of the upper mids on mixdown, as it has a tendency to increase the 1K area of the source. Other than that, I've found it to be extremely accurate and virtually transparent.
