Critically Acclaimed Sound with 24-Bit / 96 kHz Resolution
- Audio-Technica's state-of-the-art design and manufacturing techniques ensure that the microphone complies with the company's renowned consistency and reliability standards.
- The mic's cardioid polar pattern helps to focus audio capture on the speaker/performer in front of the capsule, picking up less unwanted background noise, an especially useful feature in untreated studios or podcasting spaces.
- The AT2020USB-X's smooth, extended 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and its high-resolution A/D converter (with up to 24-bit / 96 kHz sampling rate) deliver accurate sound reproduction ideally suited for streaming, podcasting, and music and video production.

Comfortable Headphone Monitoring
- The AT2020USB-X features a built-in headphone jack with volume control to let you directly monitor the microphone's signal without hearing any delay.
- The high-output internal headphone amplifier delivers superior clarity and musical detail as well as more volume overall.
- A convenient mix control lets you blend the microphone's audio with audio from your computer, great for overdubbing to a music bed.

Silent Mute Button for Podcasting and Streaming
- The silent, touch-sensitive mute button is conveniently located on the body of the microphone to quickly and silently mute the mic in case you need a private moment.
- The two-state LED (blue/red) indicator ring lights blue to indicate that the microphone is receiving USB power and lights red when audio is muted at the microphone.
