    Built for professional videographers and content creators, the ATV-SG1 on-camera shotgun microphone delivers natural, high-resolution audio from a feature-rich, easy-to-use device. The compact mic, which adopts the solid-mesh style of Audio-Technica’s classic 20 Series, is designed for use with DSLR, mirrorless SLR, and other cameras.  

     

    The ATV-SG1 boasts a highly directional 100 mm acoustic tube to keep pickup focused on the sound source while blocking unwanted background noise. Like the 20 Series mics, the ATV-SG1 provides professional-quality sound for lifelike reproduction of the human voice and other sources. Key to this natural, high-resolution sound capture is the mic’s newly designed 14 mm large-diameter diaphragm, which exhibits high-sensitivity and low-noise characteristics for rich, detailed audio. In addition, the mic’s integrated shock mount dissipates unwanted handling noise from camera movement and vibrations, while Audio-Technica’s patented noise-immunity technology prevents the mic from picking up any annoying hum from nearby smartphones or other electronic devices.

     

    The ATV-SG1 also offers a number of professional extras to give you greater control over the audio. These include a low-cut filter switch to attenuate noise from wind, traffic, HVAC systems, and other low-frequency sources, plus a convenient gain knob on the rear of the unit for stepless, on-the-fly gain adjustment. For added peace of mind, the safety track feature records your main audio level to the left channel and a backup track at -6 dB to the right channel. This helps ensure you still get a clean, usable recording even if unexpected volume spikes occur during your shoot. With its external input jack and accessory shoe, the ATV-SG1 enables you to mount a wireless lavalier mic receiver or a plug-in-powered wired lavalier mic so you can record simultaneously with the shotgun and lav mics. In addition, there’s a headphone jack with volume adjustment knob to let you monitor the audio in real time.

     

    The ATV-SG1’s built-in USB rechargeable battery provides up to 24 hours of continuous operation, and the mic comes with a wind muff for added protection against wind noise in outdoor and location recording environments.

     

    The mic’s 12-sided shoe mounting plate also allows it to be attached to the camera at 30-degree increments to enable the capture of off-center sound sources. And the mic can slide forward or back on the mount’s rail for optimal positioning (to keep the mic out of the camera shot, to make room for other camera accessories, etc.).

     

    For more than 60 years, Audio-Technica has been a leading innovator in sound technology, providing audio solutions for every application, from home studio projects to some of the world’s largest broadcasting events. Designed and manufactured in Japan, the ATV-SG1 continues this tradition, harnessing Audio-Technica’s expertise in content creation and broadcast audio to ensure professional results.
