Audio Technica AT2020USBi Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Full Description

Versatile Cardioid Polar Pattern

Cardioid polar patterns are perfect for a huge range of applications - with more sensitivity at the front of the microphone and significantly less at the sides and rear, a cardioid pattern reduces the capture of ambient noise and unwanted sound sources. This powerful pattern is ideal for live performances and studio recording, be it spoken-word, vocals, instrumentation and more. The narrow angle of sensitivity minimizes bleed from other sources, capturing only what you want to be heard.

Adaptable To Any Situation

The AT2020USB+'s critically-acclaimed, award-winning sound is ideal for almost any application. A high-quality A/D converter with a 24-bit / 96kHz sampling rate helps to deliver unparalleled audio quality through the microphone's micro-HDMI output. Additionally, the AT2020USBi boasts Audio Technica's phenomenal build quality, allowing you to take full advantage of its performance in a broad variety of environments. High-performance audio combined with a rugged and reliable sound makes the AT2020USBi the perfect candidate for broadcasting, streaming, field-recording, voice-overs, home-recording and more. This powerful microphone doesn't place limits on your creativity...
