  • Great for Professional Home Studio Voice-over, Vocal, and Instrument Recordings
Size: AT2035 Color: Bundle w/ Pop Filter
Without going into all the technical details: Used correctly (assumes knowledge of acoustics, hardware and software etc), this mic can be easily used for professional class recordings, certainly including vocals. I also have an AT2020, and while it's also excellent for recording, I like the "high pass" filter which rolls off the bass frequencies nicely, especially for vocals. The additional surface space of the cardioid pattern in the AT2035 vs AT2020 does seem to me to bring a different tone, which in my view lends itself well to some voices (hard for me to quantify this exactly, but it seems a little more "bright" in raw recordings). Of course with an array of high end plugins and gear, you can make even mediocre recordings sound much better, but for professional level recording, there is a lot of factors which will make the raw recording significantly easier to "polish" at the Mixing and Mastering stages, by getting it right from the start (includes having the right sound isolation and acoustic treatment, gear/DAW etc in the "studio" - including "home studios"). The AT 2035 I've found is great for recording vocals (singing, voiceover etc) and acoustic guitar. I've yet to try it with stringed or brass/woodwind instruments, but would expect the quality to be in the same region. NOTE: This Microphone needs "Phantom Power" to run, and uses XLR connections, so this is NOT for use with USB directly, you need an Audio Interface with the XLR capability and Phantom Power to work. Personally, I MUCH prefer to run with a Thunderbolt capable Audio Interface, and use a Resident T4 for example (there are many to choose from) which is a Thunderbolt 2 interface, hence many times faster than USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 (idea being the "latency" is much better via Thunderbolt vs USB - depending on the PC set up and the type of Audio Interface, this will vary, but we're talking multiple, sometimes 10 times faster - so this is SIGNIFICANT - Note: Macs etc run natively with Thunderbolt). Re if you want to run the AT2035 through a Thunderbolt interface on PC, you will need a motherboard which is Thunderbolt capable, and often requires a specifically dedicated Thunderbolt card for the particular brand and type of motherboard to work, PLUS with the enabling software to allow the Thunderbolt to work. Reducing the time it takes for your signal to be processed, and for you to avoid "lag" in hearing the result (if it's delayed too much it can be VERY distracting if singing/playing for example), I'd highly recommend getting the best gear you can, and also if using a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), getting the right "ASIO" software, and also minimizing all active programs to optimize CPU/RAM and Storage I/O (Input/Output) rates. Also, getting a quality Audio Interface will allow you to record with the sample rates and quality level you desire, which if quality is important, will be critical to the end result. So, if you want to get the most out of this mic, considering pairing this with some of the above supporting aspects to getting a great recording, this mic is certainly good enough for high end home studios to get professional class recordings, and at a great price point. ... show more

  • 10/10 Would Recommend!!!
This is an excellent value bundle. Everything was packaged and shipped intact and with care. The headphones that came with my package were not the Samson headphones shown in the picture, but Resident Audio R100 headphones. I really like them, so no complaints from me. The pop filter is also just fine. Now--this microphone: WOW! I got this for recording vocals and acoustic instruments. The quality on this is unbelievable for the price point. The slightly warm tone it adds is so complimentary to any voice, and the live vocal mixing feature on this is a complete game changer. Especially with a pop filter, the mic catches no white noise and really just creates a smooth and crisp recording. I've tried two Blue mics before (the Snowball and the Bluebird), and found both to be pretty noisy. This beats Blue by a long shot. The only thing I would say is that the mini tripod stand is close to useless, but what can ya do. Everything else about this bundle is well worth the price and I would recommend it to anyone! ... show more

  • Audio Technica AT2020 - A Beginner's Review
Size: AT2020 Color: Bundle w/ Pop Filter & Cable
This microphone is very very nice, and very high quality. I bought this microphone to get into podcasting. Coming from someone who has no previous knowledge or background in audio or recording, (I have to say) its a little frustrating at first. But once you learn and read more about how it all is suppose to work together it is very interesting. The microphone and the bundle itself is exceptionally good value. The pop filter is nice and very adjustable. The XLR cable that comes with it is very nice too! For instance I bought another XLR cable on a different order. After comparing the two, the cable that comes with the bundle is far better in terms of quality. The microphone is unbelievably good. No audio noise, very clear, well built. I use the soft cloth that comes with it and place it on top of the microphone to keep dust off of it. I have the microphone going through a Behringer Xenyx302 USB mixer. Again, setting all this up without knowing what you're doing isn't very fun. Thankfully there is alot of information out there that will at least get you started. Trial and error with different setups will always be there however. ... show more

  • GREAT Mic for VO Pros
I am a professional voiceover artist with 15+ years experience. Until recently, I have done the majority of my work in radio station production studios. However, I just built a recording booth in my home and needed to equip it for VO. I cannot even begin to explain the amount of research I put into this purchase. After all, a good microphone is crucial to my success. Now, would I love a Sennheiser 416 or a Neumann? Of course. Do I have $1000 + to spend on one? No. So, after doing the homework, I decided that the AT 4040 was a good middle-of-the-road option. I definitely made the right choice. Paired with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 this mic sounds incredible. It is perfectly crisp and clear for voiceover. It is sensitive enough to capture the texture in my voice but not so sensitive it picks up my next door neighbor's sneeze. I highly recommend this mic to anyone in the market for a broadcast-quality voiceover mic that won't break the bank. ... show more

  • Nice bundle for the budding recording artist
Excellent product. The quality of Audio-Technica is awesome and is great for anyone who wants to start up and experiment with recording. The bundle comes with an XLR cable, a pop filter, bag, and the microphone. I was in the market for a good microphone at a relatively cheap price, and stumbled upon this. Works great and really gives a clear sound that I'm looking for. The pop filter is great as well and the XLR cable does the job. The one thing I didn't like is the bag. The bag doesn't seem to fit the microphone too well and I have to jam them in the slots to get them in. Other than that, this bundle is excellent. ... show more
