Product Details
Audio-Technica Hypercardioid Dynamic USB Microphone AT2040USB
The AT2040USB is an ideal microphone for creators, featuring a dynamic design for excellent voice capture with added USB functionality. Combining the broadcast-quality performance of the AT2040 dynamic podcast microphone with plug-and-play USB functionality makes this the ideal microphone for podcasters, streamers, and other content creators to achieve professional results.
When 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 YouTubers looking to increase their viewership and streamers wanting to gain a professional edge.
This dynamic microphone also touts its quality with a highly directional, hypercardioid pickup pattern that helps eliminate common ambient noise, like the hum of a computer fan. With a narrower pickup angle than a cardioid design, the AT2040USB provides focused vocal capture, which is ideal and super effective for creators and gamers who stream and chat with followers.
Additionally, the microphone's robust metal body includes an integrated shock mount to minimize unwanted noise and vibration, while its internal pop filter protects against harsh spoken sounds. For added noise, shock, and vibration cancellation that may be transmitted through a mic stand, boom, or mount, users can purchase the AT8458a shock mount separately.
The AT2040USB is equipped with a built-in headphone jack for real-time audio monitoring with no delay. It also features a quick muting function, with the silent touch-sensitive capacitive mute button to quickly and easily mute audio at the microphone and a two-state LED indicator ring displays a blue light when the mic is on and ready to capture audio and indicates red when it is muted.
This content creator microphone offers a USB Type-C output, which 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. Users can connect the microphone directly to a computer for immediate use, without audio interference or additional cabling. Whether it's Twitch streaming, YouTube content creation, or online chats, the AT2040USB is well suited for all kinds of content creation.
Product Highlights:
Dynamic broadcast microphone with plug-and-play USB functionality is perfect for podcasters, streamers, and other content creators
Hypercardioid pickup focuses on your voice and minimizes room noises and echo
Multistage foam mesh windscreen provides superior internal pop protection
Integrated shock mount tames noise, shock and vibration transmitted through mic stands, booms, and mounts
Built-in headphone jack with high-output amplifier and volume control enables real-time monitoring with excellent sound quality
Mix control allows the microphone signal to be blended with prerecorded audio
Silent soft-touch mute button provides convenient, reliable muting at the microphone
High-resolution AD convertor with 24-Bit/96 kHz sampling rate for extremely clear, natural sound reproduction
Switchable low-cut filter controls unwanted low-frequency sound
Two-state LED indicator ring lights blue when mic is powered on and lights red when it is muted
Professional-grade metal body for lasting durability
Includes mounting clamp and USB-C to USB-A cable (with USB-A to USB-C adapter)
Product Features:
Highly Directional Voice Capture - Vocal clarity
Hypercardioid polar pattern provides maximum vocal isolation for professional-quality sound.
Mute Button - Simple to silence
A simple touch of the capacitive mute button immediately silences the microphone. The mic's LED ring changes from blue to red indicating that the audio is muted.
Headphone Out - Zero latency monitoring
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.
Internal Pop Filter - Clean articulation
The AT2040USB's multistage foam mesh windscreen includes a nonwoven filter to allow close-up use without annoying pops.
Integrated Shock Mount and Low-cut Filter - Quiet, professional performance
The mic 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.
XLR or USB?
XLR microphones are analog devices that require an XLR cable that feeds the analog signal to an audio interface. The interface then converts the analog signal to digital and feeds the audio to your PC for recording. Within USB microphones, all of the analog to digital conversion takes place within the microphone - no audio interface required. The digital signal is then fed via USB connection directly into your PC.
Dynamic Microphones
Dynamic Mic Characteristics:
Minimizes room noise - perfect for sonically untreated rooms
Smooth audio capture with classic warm broadcast sound
Robust construction with no external power requirements
How Does a Dynamic Mic Work?
Dynamic microphones use a diaphragm connected to a coil of wire that surrounds a magnet. The diaphragm is moved by changing sound pressure. This moves the coil, which causes current to flow as it moves through the magnetic field. An electrical signal is then sent to your recording device or speakers which records or amplifies the audio. Dynamic microphones are extremely durable and can handle very high sound pressure levels (SPL).
