The Audio-Technica AT2040USB Hypercardioid Dynamic Podcast Microphone combines the broadcast-quality performance of the AT2040 dynamic microphone with plug-and-play USB functionality, making it easy for podcasters, streamers, and other content creators to achieve professional results.
When you're live streaming, outstanding sound is just as important as interesting content and high-quality video. The AT2040USB microphone ensures a natural frequency response with rich, powerful lows and crystal-clear studio sound, making it easy for any YouTuber creator or streamer looking to increase their voice audio quality.
The Audio-Technica AT2040USB features a highly directional, hyper-cardioid pickup pattern that isolates your voice from surrounding noise, ensuring the focus remains on the spoken content. If you're a gamers who stream and chat with followers you'll appreciate the isolation from ambient noise, such as the hum of your computer's fans.
Audio-Technica’s AT2040USB Podcast Microphone features a robust metal body that includes an integrated shock mount to attenuate unwanted noise and vibration. While an internal pop filter protects against harsh spoken sounds. The AT8458a shock mount (sold separately) can also be used with the microphone to further reduce any noise, shock, or vibration that might be transmitted through a mic stand, boom, or mount. The AT2040USB is also equipped with a headphone jack to enable real-time monitoring of the audio and a soft-touch mute button for quick, reliable muting at the microphone.
Hypercardioid polar pattern provides maximum vocal isolation for professional-quality sound.
Smooth, extended frequency response makes the microphone perfect for streaming, gaming, and home studio recording.
The mic has a high-resolution A/D converter with a sampling rate of up to 24 bits/96 kHz for extremely clear and natural sound.
A simple touch of the capacitive mute button immediately silences the Audio-Technica AT2040USB. The mic’s LED ring changes from blue to red indicating that the audio is muted.
A headphone jack with volume control allows you to monitor audio directly from the microphone, while the mix control allows you to blend your microphone signal with computer audio.
Includes a USB cable (USB Type-C to USB Type-A) and USB adapter (USB Type-A to USB Type-C) for plug-and-play functionality. The microphone connects directly to your computer for immediate use—no audio interface or additional cabling is required.
The AT2040USB’s multistage foam mesh windscreen includes a nonwoven filter to allow close-up use without annoying pops.
The robust metal body ensures professional performance for years to come.
The Audio-Technica AT2040USB Podcast Microphone features a specially designed, integrated shock mount that tames any noise, shock and vibration that might be transmitted through a mic stand, boom or mount. The low-cut filter eliminates low-frequency sound for additional reduction of vibration and surrounding environmental noise.
The two-state LED indicator ring lights blue when the mic is powered on and ready to capture audio, and lights red when it is muted.
