The AT2020 condenser is Audio-Technica's introduction to the $99.00 mic market, but it still offers many of the high-end features found in their 3000 and 4000 series mics.

State-of-the-art design and manufacturing techniques set the AT2020 apart from other side-address mics in its class. Its low-mass diaphragm is custom-engineered for extended frequency response and superior transient response. With low self-noise perfectly suited for sophisticated digital recording equipment, the microphone offers a wide dynamic range and handles high SPLs with ease. Its rugged construction is designed to stand up to years of studio use.

Features:
• Ideal for project/home-studio applications
• High SPL handling and wide dynamic range provide unmatched versatility
• Custom-engineered low-mass diaphragm provides extended frequency response and superior transient response
• Cardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear, improving isolation of desired sound source
• Pivoting, threaded stand mount attaches securely for easy and precise placement of the microphone
