Audio-Technica AT2040USB Podcast Microphone Set

Professional Performance Without Background Noise!

The Audio-Technica AT2040USB is a dynamic USB microphone that delivers excellent vocal quality – the perfect partner for all creatives. It combines the broadcast performance of the dynamic podcast microphone AT2040 with plug & play functionality via USB, making it ideal for podcasts, streaming, and other creative projects with professional results.

In live streaming, outstanding sound is just as important as engaging content and top video quality. The AT2040USB impresses with a natural frequency response featuring rich, powerful bass and crystal-clear studio sound. This makes it easy to quickly attract new viewers on YouTube. Streaming projects get a professional edge.

Best Vocal Quality for Your Content

Another quality feature of this dynamic microphone is the hypercardioid pattern, which offers high directionality and helps eliminate common ambient noises like computer fan hum. With a narrower pickup angle compared to a cardioid microphone, the AT2040USB enables very focused voice capture, providing an ideal, highly effective solution for creators and gaming streamers who engage with their followers.

The robust metal body of the microphone is equipped with an internal damping system to minimize noise and unwanted vibrations, while the integrated pop filter protects against strong plosives.

Perfectly Equipped for All Creatives

The AT2040USB features a built-in headphone jack for latency-free real-time monitoring and a silent capacitive touch mute button for easy muting directly on the microphone, plus an LED ring with two operating states: - Blue: Microphone on and active - Red: Mute status

This microphone, specially designed for content creators, comes with a USB-C output and includes a USB connection cable (USB-C ⇒ USB-A) as well as a USB-A ⇒ USB-C adapter. This is true plug & play, as it can be connected directly to a computer and is ready to use immediately – without noise or extra cabling hassle.

That makes the AT2040USB ideal for a wide range of creative projects, Twitch streaming, YouTube content, and online chats.

Pop Filter

The McGrey pop killer significantly reduces popping and hissing noises, improving the vocal quality and intelligibility of your recordings.

With a diameter of 15 cm and lightweight design, it’s also perfect for recording on the go.
