About Audio-Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Studio XLR Microphone
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
81% appreciated its convenient connectivity options
When plugging in the microphone, it requires a 48V input which can be easily provided through the dedicated button on the Focusrite Scarlett interface.
This microphone is a good option to get started with an XLR microphone as an upgrade from a headset or even a USB microphone.
88% praised for its rugged build quality
I have been using the same microphone for 7 years and it is still the best one I have used.
85% appreciated its wide frequency range
I advise turning off the sensitivity and input completely and working up to a good spot as the microphone is extremely sensitive.
I took a dive with this microphone as most people suggested it as a good entry way for deep voices.
The audio quality is pristine and I don't need to use any voice effects to get a good sound.
88% liked its high sensitivity
The microphone is extremely sensitive. It's important to turn off the sensitivity and input completely and work up to a good spot.
If the rest of the equipment is set properly, I can use the solid mic for a lot of things.
89% praised for its crystal-clear sound
I found that the microphone works well for vocals, acoustic instruments, and podcasting with friends. It picks up everyone in the room due to its proximity.
After 7 years of using this microphone, it is still the only and best microphone I have used.
If the rest of the equipment is set properly, I can use the mic for various purposes as it is solid.
