Broadcast-ready, Industry-leading Audio for Serious Creators

Revived and revamped to meet the needs of industry-leading vocalists, content creators, and podcasters everywhere, the Audio-Technica AT2020USB-XP cardioid condenser USB microphone is the highest mark in the AT2020 microphone series! Designed specifically for professional recording applications, this version of Audio-Technica’s highly acclaimed AT2020USB+ boasts a high-resolution A/D converter with a 24-bit/192kHz sampling rate and an enhanced 20-20,000Hz frequency response range to capture your source in crystal-clear quality. This mic features a built-in headphone jack to effortlessly monitor and dial in your levels with zero latency. At the same time, the integrated mix control blends your mic’s output with your computer audio — an essential tool for streamers. A favorite feature among Sweetwater’s content-creation veterans is the soft-touch capacitive mute switch, allowing you to silence coughs, sneezes, and other unwanted noise with no irritating click or pop sounds. What’s more, the two-state blue/red LED ring provides a clear visual indication of your mic’s mute/live status! Complete with an included custom desk stand and clip-on pop filter, the Audio-Technica AT2020USB-XP is the fastest route to studio-grade professionalism.

Built-in mute button and two-state indicator light

From unwanted background noise to sneezes and coughs, every broadcaster knows that an easily accessible mute button is a must-have when you’re on the air. Thankfully, the Audio-Technica AT2020USB-XP is outfitted with a touch-sensitive mute that stealthily silences your audio without any click or pop sounds. What’s more, a two-state red/blue LED ring offers a constant and clear visual indication of your mic’s current status.

USB functionality for interface-free recording

When you’re starting out your first podcast, stream, or really any other form of content creation, the amount of perquisite gear you need to get started can be intimidating! A USB-capable mic like the AT2020USB-XP is a great way to get a broadcast-ready setup right out of the box — no audio interface necessary. Likewise, the AT2020USB-XP retains 100% of its power from a USB connection, keeping your setup efficient and free from additional cabling.

Rated 5/5

Perfect for what I needed!

I am on travels and not around my usual studio set-up. I needed something to record dialog with, and to use for zoom meetings and other video related things while on the road, and didn't want to carry an interface with me.

This mic works great! Sounds good and I like the color indicator for mute/live… and that it has a mute button right on the mic!

A super score for those who like pro-level vocals in their video.
