Review: WOW! AMAZING for the price - I have to say I am SHOCKED at how good the quality is for the price on this microphone. Background : I don't work in "the business" or anything. I am a bit of an audiophile (I know good sound when I hear it), but am admittedly NO expert on these things. At one point in my life, I was an on-air voice, and my father was life-long on air. I know a fair amount about audio quality. That said, I never made it my career as my dad did. And so I know more than the average person, but FAR less than the experts. I do have a high-end Neumann, but as I don't have day-to-day need of these things, that requires a bit more preparation to use. I wanted something a little easier to deal with. I have to say I was VERY PLEASANTLY impressed with this microphone and without need of any additional amplifier. Included shock mount isn't super robust, but also not cheap plastic or anything. Definitely serviceable. It does the job nicely. I do not have a "quiet room" ... just my office with a laundry room not that far down the hall. For my test, the microphone did pick up some background from the laundry room, but that was as expected, and to be honest, FAR better than it could have been for a condenser. Overall sound quality was buttery. I'm not that great explaining tonal profiles. I'll leave that to someone that knows those things. But my baritone voice came very cleanly. Microphone picks up nice bass notes, if you have a higher pitched voice, you may want to see someone's review that more aligns with yours. No real setup required on my Windows 11 PC. Plugged it in, went to sound settings and set "Microphone 2020" as the active profile to use, and boom it worked. I did have to bump up the input volume on my PC, it defaults to 50% which was ludicrously low leveling. Excellent product. I LOVE THIS THING.
Review: BEST MIC FOR THE PRICE!!!!! GET IT!!! - IM SO SORRY BUT THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE MIC EVER UNLESS I UPGRADE because this mic is so POWERFUL and I mean this mic could pick up the sounds of ants talking. I've never been exposed to such a powerful mic. Yes like they said YOU GOTTA TURN YOUR GAIN UP but once you get that to the level you want THERE IS NOTHING THIS MIC WONT PICK UP. I could leave this mic laying in the livingroom and still hear everything its picking up from the bedroom even if a bug walked across the bed this mic is sure to pick up that frequency. I've used this mic to PROFESSIONALLY RECORD MY OWN MUSIC and the way it makes me sound is so great its pleasing to my ears and CRYSTAL CLEAR. I love the power of this mic and I highly recommend it and will be purchasing another to have as a BACK UP. Just make sure when you are using it to turn on your PHANTOM POWER. This mic requires 48V or what most know as PHANTOM POWER to work correctly as stated. So other then that this is a great product and if you dont get it your missing out. I think everyone doing something professionally should have at least this mic. ENJOY

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a one-directional mic? I was told that a one-directional mic is best for recording podcasts.**
A: Yes, and it's very important to be speaking INTO THE BLUE LIGHT behind the screen. That's the one-directional "sweet spot." And, you didn't ask, but I record (as do most of my professional colleagues now stuck at home) into the free software "Audacity." Some have found that If you plug in the mic AFTER you load Audacity, it may not recognize AT2020+ as a microphone choice and while it may still record, the results will be unsatisfactory.  If or when that happens, just restart Audacity AFTER plugging the USB into your computer and click on the AT2020+ option.

**Q: is it possible to listen to a downloaded .mp3 instrumental (NOT instrument) on my PC and hear that while i record over it using this mic?**
A: Yes, using the monitor dial on mic itself, toggling between PC sound and your own, or setting accordingly until balance suites you.   (using plugged in headphones into mic)

**Q: Does this work with windows 10?  I need someone who actually uses it on win10 machine, not someone selling them. I have at2020 not working w/ win10.**
A: Yes, I'm running Windows 10 with Audacity recording software. By the way, with this one-directional mic, it's very important to be speaking INTO THE BLUE LIGHT behind the screen. That's the one-directional "sweet spot." And, you didn't ask, but I record (as do most of my professional colleagues now stuck at home) into the free software "Audacity." Some have found that If you plug in the mic AFTER you load Audacity, it may not recognize AT2020+ as a microphone choice, and while it may still record, the results will be unsatisfactory.  If or when that happens, just restart Audacity AFTER plugging the USB into your computer and click on the AT2020+ option.

**Q: How is the AT2020PLUS different from the regular AT2020?**
A: I have both.  The AT2020 was great for general recording purposes, but for singing or voiceover I do LOVE the monitor jack and the slider.  The slider will let you balance what comes into your monitor (your earbuds, headphones, whatever you plug in to the jack) so you can choose how much of the mic versus the PC comes into your ears.  This gets important because if you rely on the PC to feed your voice back to you, there is a slight signal delay that can get awkward.  You don't have to use the monitor, and it doesn't affect the act of recording.  Hope that helps!
