The AT2020 is a pleasant surprise for those looking at buying a good mic at a cheap price.First off, this isn't a USB microphone. Adding to it, the way it captures the top end crisply with the lower-mid makes it pleasing on vocals. This mic captures instruments sounds admirably. It's mostly for people who want to crystal clear audio for voiceover and podcasting and aren't afraid of a little tinkering.The Audio Technica AT2020 is a rock-solid condenser mic with the performance of an expensive mic.
It also requires extra equipment to operate, which is where a few headaches arise. That's a problem if you're looking to dive right into streaming and podcasting, but also part of the reason why this microphone is so affordable. There aren't any cables, a stand, or anything extra aside from the bare essentials. It comes with a small leather carrying pouch, similar to a pencil case, a microphone stand adapter, and that's it. There actually isn't much included with the AT2020.
You can pick up a mic stand on the cheap, but there's the problem of finding a place to set it up, room to store it, and other logistical issues that might pop up. Out of the box you just have to hold it, so it's not for someone who wants to take it out of the box and start a Twitch channel immediately. It's much more complicated than a USB mic, in case that wasn't clear.This item: Audio-Technica AT2020USB+ Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone, With Built-In Headphone Jack & Volume Control, Perfect for Content Creators 129.00 Only 11 left in stock - order soon.There's also the problem of lacking a mic stand. You'll need a mixing board at the very least, or a dedicated voice recorded that accepts XLR input. If that sounds intimidating, this is not the mic for you. The AT2020 uses an XLR cable and requires 48v of phantom power.
It's exactly what you would expect from a studio-grade microphone. Compared to a USB mic, the sound is warmer and more precise. It does a fantastic job capturing voices and honestly would work quite well in a professional setup.
The Blue Yeti only needs to be plugged into a USB port, and does a fine job for streaming and podcasting. Fixing bad sound quality, like the kind you'd get with an onboard mic or built-in, makes more of an impact than improving already acceptable sound quality. The problem is, all that extra effort isn't really worth it if you're just planning on streaming games on Twitch or YouTube. The AT2020 will give you great sounding recordings, with the flexibility of adjustment that comes with using an analog mixer, but you also need to understand the functions of a whole other piece of recording equipment.For the $99 base price, you could buy a small mixing board and cables and still come in at around the same cost as the Razer Seiren Elite. A USB mic sounds excellent for almost all non-professional applications, without all the extra setup and equipment.
