Audio-Technica cardioid condenser USB microphone

Introducing the Audio-Technica cardioid condenser USB microphone

The AT2020USB-XP is based on the popular AT2020USB-X microphone, with added improvements to make it the go-to choice for those who want a professional sound. Additions include a 24-bit 192kHz sampling rate, three levels of noise reduction (via selector switch with LED indicator), automatic gain control (with LED indicator), and the inclusion of a handy clip-on pop filter.

It also includes the same highly praised features that the AT2020USB-X has, such as the silent touch-sensitive mute switch, plug-and-play USB-Type C operation, as well as a built-in headphone jack with volume control and personal mix control to allow for monitoring of the microphone.

The AT2020USB-XP has onboard processing for streamers, zero latency monitoring for podcasters, studio-quality sound for musicians and easy operation for remote work. It’s perfect for anyone looking to get a quality microphone.

Comes with a custom desk stand, a 3/8″-16 to 5/8″-27 threaded adapter, and a 10ft (3.1 m) USB-C to USB-A cable with a USB-A to USB-C adapter.

Designed for content creators

When it comes to creating engaging content, having high-quality audio is essential. The AT2020USB-XP is packed with award-winning, studio-quality features and onboard digital technology, to provide content creators with a convenient and professional sound solution.

For example, this cardioid condenser USB mic gives creators digital control with its on-board automatic gain control. This feature allows users to maintain a consistent microphone output level regardless of how loudly or softly they speak or sing, which is great for many different situations and projects.

Get the sound you want

Audio-Technica microphones make sure that the focus remains on a chosen sound source, thanks to their cardioid directional pick-up and onboard noise reduction. At the base of the mic there’s the option to select from three levels of noise reduction, or you can turn it off completely, depending on your recording environment.

It also features a touch-sensitive mute button conveniently located on the body of the microphone, which makes muting for breaks or unexpected interruptions simple with one hassle-free tap of a button.

Plus, the LED on the microphone’s body conveniently indicates the current noise reduction setting and lets you know whether automatic gain control is on, making it easy to use. You’ll know if it’s muted when the blue light turns to red.

High-resolution A/D converter

This microphone’s advanced analogue-to-digital converter supports multiple sampling rates, with high-resolution recording up to 24-bit/192 kHz, for crystal-clear, natural sound reproduction.

Zero Latency Monitoring

The built-in headphone jack with volume control allows you to monitor audio directly from the microphone without any delay, while the mix control allows you to seamlessly blend your microphone’s audio with audio from your computer.

Included accessories

The AT2020USB-XP also comes with an array of other accessories, such as the included desk stand that provides a stable base to securely set up the microphone on any flat surface, and the custom pop filter which provides added protection against plosives.

The mic offers a USB-C output, while also including a USB-C to USB-A cable and USB-A to USB-C adapter for maximum compatibility.

20 Series microphones

Audio-Technica mics are trusted for their quality and reliability, and the AT2020USB-XP exemplifies the innovation of the 20 Series – the microphone line that made professional-quality sound accessible to all creators.
