The Audio‑Technica AT2020USB‑XP is a next‑generation USB condenser microphone designed to bring studio‑grade audio to podcasters, streamers, musicians, voice‑over artists, and home‑studio content creators. Equipped with a high‑resolution 24‑bit/192 kHz A/D converter, it captures vocals and instruments with exceptional clarity, depth, and fidelity — far beyond typical consumer‑grade mics.
Its cardioid pickup pattern keeps the focus on your voice or chosen sound source while minimizing background noise, making it ideal for desktop recording, streaming, and content creation in less-than‑ideal acoustic environments. The AT2020USB‑XP includes built-in digital audio processing: selectable onboard noise reduction and automatic gain control help you maintain consistent, clean sound without extra software.
For convenience, it offers direct zero‑latency headphone monitoring via a built-in 3.5 mm jack with mix and volume controls, plus a capacitive touch‑mute button for quick silencing. The package comes with a stable desktop stand, a clip‑on pop filter to tame plosives, and all necessary USB cables/adapters — so you can plug in and start recording immediately.
