Audio-Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Ideal for home and studio applications, the AT2020 from Audio-Technica is a versatile side-address studio condenser microphone that combines quality with affordability. Offering crystal-clear communication, this is a great solution for miking applications for content creators of all kinds, from musicians and singer/songwriters to podcasters, social media influencers, or gamers who want to get a professional sound out of their recordings and live streams.

Get unmatched sound quality and reliable performance with the professional-caliber AT2020. This mic’s cardioid polar pattern minimizes the pickup of unwanted noise from the sides and rear, enhancing isolation of the sound source you want to capture.

Featuring a custom-engineered low-mass diaphragm perfect for extended frequency response and superior transient response, this mic is ruggedly built to handle high sound pressure levels (144 dB SPL, 1 kHz at 1% T.H.D.) as well as a wide dynamic range (124 dB, 1 kHz at Max SPL), delivering studio-quality audio with minimal vocal pops or plosives.

The AT2020 cardioid condenser microphone comes with a stand mount for 5/8"-27 threaded stands, a 5/8"-27 to 3/8"-16 threaded adapter, and an R7 soft protective pouch for secure transportation and safe storage.
