Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I'm looking to shoot two or three people in one shot, with the boom overhead on a stand. Mostly indoors. Would this mic capture everyone's dialogue if there is no boom operator to move to the speaker?

A: A shotgun mic should be used to pick up dialog from one person, or professional sounding audio. If you use it to pick up two people, the sound will become thin. I would suggest using a boom person, or setting up two mics in a stereo configuration.

Q: 2. I’m shooting a film on an iphone. Is there a way to connect this mic with the phone?

A: The Saramonic LC-XLR Female XLR to Lightning Microphone Adapter Cable for iOS Devices (B&H # SALCXLR) can be used to connect the AT897 to your iPhone You will need to use a battery to power the mic since the iPhone can not supply phantom power. The other options for cables are the Saramonic SR-XLR35 XLR Female to 3.5mm TRRS Microphone Cable for DSLR Cameras and Smartphones (B&H # SASRXLR35) combined with the Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (B&H # APLAADAP). The MXL Female XLR to 3.5mm Male TRRS and 3.5mm Female TRS Multimedia Adapter Cable for Select Dynamic Microphones (B&H # MXMMCABLE) provides a 3.5mm TRS headphone tap which allows you to monitor the sound while recording. This cable can also be combined with the Apple Lightning adapter for use with an iPhone.

Q: 3. better than at875?

A: The AT897 is slightly more directional due to the length of the tube, as well as the option to self power via AA battery. These would be the major differences.

Q: 4. Baass sound good?

A: Yes, it captures low frequency sound very well, very accurately, without being overwhelming. I record at music venues, and it captures the bass just like being in the room.

Q: 5. I'm encountering A LOT of fuzz in the background when recording with this straight into my 5dMKii does anyone have a solution?

A: There can definitely be issues with connecting to the MK II's directly. In the long term, look into an external recorder. For now maybe search around for solutions for the exact model of your firmware/camera and external mics. Might be interference from bad hardware.

Q: 6. What does the limited 1 year warranty cover?

A: The Limited 1-Year Warranty covers failure due to defects in the manufacturing process.

Q: 7. Can any 5-Pin XLR Female to 1/8" 3.5mm Stereo Jack can be used to connect the AT BP4029 to Canon R5 camera? If so, which one do you recommend?

A: The Audio-Technica BP4029 (AT835ST) - Stereo Shotgun Microphone requires power from 3-Pin XLR inputs to operate properly and cannot connect directly to a 3.5mm input on a camera such as the Canon R5. A small camera mixer such as BH #SASRPAX1 Saramonic SR-PAX1 Two-Channel Audio Mixer, Preamp, Microphone Adapter would work to achieve this setup properly.

Q: 8. Is it possible to get a shorter cable for this mic?

A: Yes, shorter XLR 5-pin female to dual XLR 3-pin male cables are available. The cable included with the miic is 5-feet long. We do have a 6-inch Sennheiser ACS5 5-pin XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y Cable (B&H # SEACS), an 18-inch Remote Audio 5-Pin Stereo XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y-Cable (B&H # RECAXSTE), and a 4.9-foot Lewitt DTP 40 Trs - 5-Pin XLR Female to Dual 3-Pin XLR Male Audio Cable (B&H # LEDTP40TRS) that will work with the BP4025 microphone.

Q: 9. Hard Question but what would be the similarities and differences between this mic and a mic like the Audio-Technica 4053 or the Audix SCX-1. Do all of these mics try and achieve the same effect? (because im hoping the BP4025 would be best both outdoor and indoor) . Are all these mics trying to achieve the same effect? If so which is most effective?

A: The Audio-Technica BP4025 X/Y Stereo Field Recording Microphone has some significant differences to the Audio-Technica AT4053b Hypercardioid Condenser Microphone and the Audix SCX1 Studio Condenser Microphone, with the main difference being its X/Y Stereo Pickup pattern. The BP4025 is a great microphone for capturing environmental sounds, ambient audio, or in any scenario where a stereo audio image is desired. The AT4053b and SCX1 are both mono pencil condenser microphones. The AT4053b has a directional, hypercardioid pickup pattern and the SCX1 has a slightly wider cardioid pickup pattern. Both are well-suited for studio and live audio recording and reinforcement applications and less suited for field recordings.

Q: 10. I'd like to use this mic on my Canon C70. Is there a XLR 5-pin female to dual mini XLR 3-pin male cable?

A: The BP4025 comes with an XLR 5-pin female to dual XLR 3-pin male Y-cable. We do not a Y-cable with mini-XLR 3-pin male connectors, but you can use adapters to convert standard XLR male to mini-XLR male. The Laird Digital Cinema Premium 3-Pin Standard XLR Female to TA3M 3-Pin Mini XLR Male Audio Adapter (B&H # LARD1XFTA3M) will work or if you prefer longer adapter cables, you can use the Blackmagic Design Set of 2 Mini XLR to XLR Audio Cables for Video Assist 4K - 19.5" (B&H # BLAXLRMINI2). Both of these options will convert the standard XLR male connector to mini-XLR male for compatibility with the C70 mic inputs.
