Audio-Technica AT8035 Shotgun Microphone Review / Test

Today I review the AT8035, a 14.5” line + gradient condenser microphone. The microphone works well for voice over and for booming at a few feet. This mic has a bit of a bright tone, but still offers a fairly accurate representation of the sound that you’re putting into it. If you don’t have room for a mic as long as the 8035, the AT875r is a great alternative.
