Description

Renowned Sound Quality at Budget-Friendly Price

Based on the best-selling studio microphone in the company's history, the AT2020, the Audio-Technica AT2020USB-X Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone provides the audio quality creators come to expect with the plug-and-play convenience of USB Type-C operation, at a budget-friendly price. The microphone is designed for digitally capturing speech, music, or any acoustic audio source using your favorite recording or streaming software. Combining a directional pickup pattern that keeps the focus on your voice (or other chosen sound source) with a high-resolution A/D converter, the AT2020USB-X delivers remarkably clear, natural sound reproduction—ideal for podcasters, singer/songwriters, streamers, voice-over artists, and home-studio recorders.

Critically Acclaimed Sound with 24-Bit / 96 kHz Resolution

Audio-Technica's state-of-the-art design and manufacturing techniques ensure that the microphone complies with the company's renowned consistency and reliability standards.
The mic’s cardioid polar pattern helps to focus audio capture on the speaker/performer in front of the capsule, picking up less unwanted background noise, an especially useful feature in untreated studios or podcasting spaces.
The AT2020USB-X's smooth, extended 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and its high-resolution A/D converter (with up to 24-bit / 96 kHz sampling rate) deliver accurate sound reproduction ideally suited for streaming, podcasting, and music and video production.

Comfortable Headphone Monitoring

The AT2020USB-X features a built-in headphone jack with volume control to let you directly monitor the microphone's signal without hearing any delay.
The high-output internal headphone amplifier delivers superior clarity and musical detail as well as more volume overall.
A convenient mix control lets you blend the microphone’s audio with audio from your computer, great for overdubbing to a music bed.

Silent Mute Button for Podcasting and Streaming

The silent, touch-sensitive mute button is conveniently located on the body of the microphone to quickly and silently mute the mic in case you need a private moment.
The two-state LED (blue/red) indicator ring lights blue to indicate that the microphone is receiving USB power and lights red when audio is muted at the microphone.
