Audio-Technica has introduced the AT2020USB+ Cardioid Condenser Microphone.
Equipped with a USB output, this microphone is designed for music or any acoustic recording with users’ preferred recording software in home/project studios, field/location, podcast and voiceover.
The AT2020USB+ features a built-in headphone jack with volume control that allows directly monitoring of microphone signal in real time, and a built-in high-output internal headphone amplifier. The microphone also offers mix control that can blend the microphone’s signal with pre-recorded audio (for DJ/karaoke use). The unit’s cardioid pickup pattern delivers high off-axis rejection, while its 44.1/48kHz, 16-bit A/D offers ‘CD quality’ audio conversion.
The microphone is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, XP and 2000, and Mac OS-X. It is powered from a USB Bus and includes a tripod desk stand, stand mount, USB cable and soft protective carrying pouch.
The AT2020USB+ will be available February 2013 with an MSRP of US$279.
