Description

Any form of content creation – whether that's streaming the latest video game on Twitch, podcasting with your mates, or producing your next great track – all require equally great audio. That's where the AT2020USB-X comes in.

Front & Centre 

Your voice will remain the sole focus at all times, as a directional pickup pattern ensures your voice takes centre stage (and any nuisance background noise doesn't).  Any vocal will appear crisp, clear and authentically reproduced thanks to a hi-resolution A/D converter – providing a 24-bit/96 kHz sampling rate. 

Handy Features 

Quickly mute sound at the mic using the built-in touch-sensitive mute button; blend audio from your computer or laptop with audio from the mic itself; monitor your microphones signal entirely without delay through volume control and the onboard headphone jack. However you like to work, these handy features are bound to make your life easier.

Condenser Microphones

Condenser microphones use a sensitive capsule design that can capture fine detail, fast transients and a broad frequency range. They are common choices for vocals, acoustic instruments, overheads, room work and studio recording, but their sensitivity also makes room sound and handling more noticeable. Compare large- or small-diaphragm construction, polar pattern, self-noise, maximum level, pad and high-pass options, and whether phantom power is required. The right condenser depends on the source, placement and acoustic environment, not simply on whether the microphone is marketed for studio use.
