AUDIO-TECHNICA AT2005USB CARDIOID DYNAMIC USB/XLR MICROPHONE

All-purpose quality and versatility

The AT2005USB offers a wide variety of solutions for musicians and audio techs alike. XLR and USB outputs are ideal for both field and studio applications, complemented by a built-in headphone jack with volume control. The AT2005USB performed especially well through our PA, serving up crystal clear tones. Vocals and voiceovers were dynamic, and the cardioid pattern did a great job of reducing background noise. We were equally impressed by how well the AT2005USB responded to various placements when miking a guitar amp. The included tripod desk stand is particularly convenient for hands-free podcasts and voiceovers.
