Audio-Technica AT2035 Leaflet
• Large diaphragm for smooth, natural sound and low noise
• High SPL handling and wide dynamic range provide unmatched
versatility
• Custom shock mount provides superior isolation
• Switchable 80 Hz high-pass filter and 10 dB pad
• Cardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides
and rear, improving isolation of desired sound source
The AT2035 is intended for use in professional applications where
remote power is available. It requires 11V to 52V DC phantom
power, which may be provided by a mixer or console, or by a
separate, in-line source such as the Audio-Technica AT8801 single-
channel or CP8506 four-channel phantom power supplies.

Output from the microphone's XLRM-type connector is low
impedance (Lo-Z) balanced. The signal appears across Pins 2 and
3; Pin 1 is ground (shield). Output phase is “Pin 2 hot” – positive
acoustic pressure produces positive voltage at Pin 2.

To avoid phase cancellation and poor sound, all mic cables must be
wired consistently: Pin 1-to-Pin 1, etc.

An integral 80 Hz hi-pass filter provides easy switching from a flat
frequency response to a low-end roll-off. The high-pass position
reduces the microphone's sensitivity to popping in close vocal use.
It also reduces the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise (such
as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.), room reverberation and
mechanically-coupled vibrations.

In use, secure the cable to the mic stand or boom, leaving a slack
loop at the mic. This will ensure the most effective shock isolation
and reduce the possibility of accidentally pulling the microphone out
of its mount.

Avoid leaving the microphone in the open sun or in areas where
temperatures exceed 110° F (43° C) for extended periods. Extremely
high humidity should also be avoided.
