The ATM510 is designed specifically for close-up vocal use in professional live-sound applications. Delivering durable performance for professional applications, this mic sports a rugged, all-metal design and construction; Hi-Energy neodymium magnets for articulate vocal reproduction; a multi-stage grille design, offering excellent protection against plosives and sibilance without compromising high-frequency clarity; a Quiet-Flex stand clamp for silent, flexible microphone positioning; and corrosion-resistant contacts from the gold-plated XLRM-type connector.

This microphone features a newly designed internal shockmounting, which reduces handling and stage noise overall. What's more, its polar pattern reduces the pickup of sounds from the sides and rear, improving isolation of the desired sound source.
