Reviews around job (5.00 of 5)

  • Audio Technica did a good job on the part of good sound for that price
  • I tested the little AT 2020 against the other mics, I have a project to add on new stuff and compare, and it does a really great job.
  • it has crystal clear audio, and it does a good job and not picking up an echo
  • I have used this mic for a few years now (I own a stereo set) and it does a great job of capturing voice acting, live performances, and anything else I need from it!It's an inexpensive investment that should last you many years, great for beginners and intermediate level folks alike.

Reviews around sound (4.39 of 5)

  • This mic is sturdy (no plastic) and has a great, rich sound to it
  • I was looking for a good Mic in my budget and this one gives very good sound for my vocals.
  • It had major static and popping sounds out of the box... and it was not the cable
  • Although, I suspect any decent preamp used properly with the AT2020would sound pretty darn good
  • This mic has a great pick up and produces a clear sound

Reviews around microphone (4.36 of 5)

  • 2 only because i bought the wrong microphone, wanted a microphone to connect to my pc
  • This microphone sound great but need a mixer because it is weak.
  • The microphone has yet to fail and gives a nearly studio type quality
  • This microphone is just the best for its price hands down
  • Team this up with a good field microphone and you have the basis of a great audio setup.

Reviews around vocal (4.33 of 5)

  • I owned this mic for a few years and I just read a review about it not having a "full sound spectrum" first off when suing this mic, your vocals will be very bassy
  • From clear high quality vocals to recording live acoustic guitar.
  • Very clear vocals, doesn't pick up any background noise, computer fans or anything
  • The quality is amazing and crisp as long as you have a good audio interface eliminating any buzz that is made with ALL microphones
  • I use this mic for recording acoustic instruments as well as vocals

Reviews around price (4.12 of 5)

  • The price of this Mic is Ridiculous.
  • Beautifully clear, with lots of depth and expression at an unbelievable bargain price (big discount on top of an already low MSRP)
  • In terms of value - it is a great product for a fantastic price.
  • Nothing wrong with either of the USB mics (a Blue Snowball and a Blue Yeti), in fact I highly recommend the Blue Yeti if you want great sound at a reasonable price with minimal fuss.
  • Whether you buy it new (about $120, if even) or used (about $70), those are still great prices for such a good sounding mic

Reviews around condenser (4.10 of 5)

  • I have been really surprised at the quality of these inexpensive condenser mics.
  • I have two good dynamic microphones for live shows and speech, but I was looking for the warm, deep sound you can only get with a good condenser microphone
  • Construction is good, but this is the worst condenser microphone I've ever worked with sound-wise
  • Construction is good, but this is the worst condenser microphone I've ever worked with sound-wise
  • This microphone is my first Condenser mic and its perfect for everything that I needed to do with super clear quality

Reviews around mics (3.95 of 5)

  • I think everyone here agrees there are some great mics if you go up to the $200-400 range.
  • It is a very good mic for people starting out in music or just using it for podcasts, but there are a bunch of better mics near this price
  • no joke I have $400 mics that can't touch the rode!
  • I have quite a number of more expensive mics in my studio, but I find most folks tend to choose this at2020 for their voice over most the other mics
  • I host a podcast and this was an upgrade from a little plug and play digital recorder with dynamic mics
