Audio-Technica AT5045P Stereo Microphone

The AT5045P is a factory-matched stereo pair of AT5045 small-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphones, selected for closely matched frequency response and sensitivity to ensure precise stereo imaging. Each pair undergoes individual measurement and pairing at the factory, making the AT5045P ready for spaced, coincident, or near-coincident stereo techniques directly out of the box.

Factory-Matched Performance

Both microphones in the AT5045P pair are individually measured and selected to meet strict sensitivity and frequency response matching tolerances. This factory pairing eliminates the uncertainty of assembling a stereo pair from separately purchased units and guarantees consistent performance across sessions and environments.

Stereo Recording Versatility

The matched pair supports X/Y, ORTF, A-B spaced, and Decca tree configurations with equal reliability. With 20 Hz–20 kHz frequency response, 7 dB self-noise, and a maximum SPL of 149 dB, both microphones handle everything from delicate acoustic guitar to overhead drum recordings with the same transparency as the individual AT5045.

Included Accessories

The AT5045P ships in a dedicated stereo case with matched microphone clips, windscreens, and a 10 dB pad for each unit. The shared case keeps both microphones together and organized during transport, preserving the matched pair through years of use.
