Its rugged construction is designed to last for years.
At a very affordable price, the AT2020 is the best choice for a first cardioid condenser studio microphone, combining performance, quality, robustness and versatility.
Its high sound pressure level (144 dB) and exceptional dynamic range make the AT2020 particularly versatile.
Technical design and advanced manufacturing ensure compliance with Audio-Technica's strict standards of consistency and reliability.
The Ø16 mm made to measure diaphragm, provides superior transient response over the entire frequency range.
It is suitable for recording voice, instruments (percussion, piano, brass, winds, Leslie amp or guitar).
