Audio-Technica AT2020USB-X Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone with Microphone Arm + Wind Screen Pop Filter + Cleaning Cloth (4 Items)

Great mic for starting my voice acting journey! I bought this because I had nothing but a bare minimum microphone and I wanted to be a voice actor in a friend's video. I got this and I believe it gets the job done! I don't believe am qualified to say it is top quality, but it is a great difference from a normal microphone!

I think I may be the first review for this bundle. I will say. It's very good.However, it's first impression had me disappointed, but I think that is on my end. The cord that is comes with is not so great.. the first time I plugged it in, the RGB came on but my pc wasn't detecting it, and it obviously wouldn't work when talking into it. It is very much a pain to get it connected again... just have to move it around a bit with crossed fingers. (Maybe that's just my issue?)I finally set up the boom arm it came with and the mic, tried again and it worked. I recommend using the boom arm and putting the microphone's cords out of your way so it doesn't get disconnected.Other than that, this is my first mic, and it blew my mind of how clear it sounded. I am used to using the mics on the headsets and using a mic for the first time really made me notice how much a difference there is.I recommend using the filter it came with or another you may have if you are a loud talker or tend to scream perhaps..What this filter will do is reduce a great amount of "popping" and "glitchy" sounds the mic may produce due to loud volume.However, if you are more quiet it may not be necessary, although it does make your voice sound a little bit smoother in my opinion.If you are a little bit slow like me, here's this to save you time.*If using on desktop you will NOT need the little piece in image 6. If you are using a laptop, connect the end piece of the cord into that and it will look dual-end. Connect the little piece into your laptop and you're good to go*If you've also never used a boom arm or a pop filter like myself. Place the boom arm at the edge of the desk and start screwing until it is very tight, the pop filter can go anywhere you want on the actual arm. I will say this about the pop filter, again maybe it might be my angles of the arm and mic. But for me, there was a lot of weight on the pop filter and it was hard to keep it centered in front of my mic. However with a little bit of moving around I found an angle that works for me.Anyways.... very good mic. Overall impressed and satisfied.

It was really easy to set up, and a good quality microphone.

My microphone was delivered today and everything is good, from the cable to the arm!I saw many people complaining about the arm installation when they put on the microphone, or complaining because they can't put the microphone over the arm. I'll give you a tip for that:)Once you have installed the arm, you have to remove the black part that grabs small microphones and only use the screw to put it. That's how you can install the microphone in the arm :D

I would like to give this product a 4-star review. However, upon receiving the package and attempting to mount the boom arm, the base that holds the boom arm snapped while I was trying to tighten it. Despite this issue, the microphone itself is of exceptional quality. I use it for streaming games, and the audio quality is so good that it makes me sound like a professional YouTuber or Twitch streamer. The pop filter is also of good quality and effectively serves its purpose. If you are looking for an affordable yet high-quality boom arm, I highly recommend the InnoGear boom arm. It is very sturdy and effectively conceals the microphone wire.

It's a fine microphone, I just expected more from AT. It picks up voice just fine, and it sounds clear and crisp, the issue is that it picks up *too much* background noise as well. If you are considering getting this to create audio, make sure you know how to use a program like Adobe Audition or Audacity, because you need to be able to edit the audio to remove unwanted background noise.

The mic itself works phenomenally however, the mic mount is terrible. It’s not strong enough to hold the weight of the mic, just get the mic and standard stand and purchase a separate one.

(Not a review about the quality, about the product in general)Had the microphone for a day and already have major problems with it. Do you know what's the most infuriating thing about A "Plug and Use" microphone? It's when you "Plug and Use" it and immediately have a problem. The mic lights up and shows that it's getting power but doesn't function, doesn't respond, doesn't mute or anything. After looking on here for help (Trust me, I found a solution to my problem but ther's really nothing else to help you so good luck) I looked and found that some people found swaping cords worked. This seems to be working for me as of now, but it also shows that this cord DOES NOT work with ANYTHING ELSE. So you cannot use it for a spare charger to your pc or another usb device as it will not recognize it at all.It's stuff like this where I feel i'm being very harsh but if I'm spending 100$+ on an item and I can't get this stuff working how is someone else suppose to get this working with no help at all? It's PLUG and USE, It should work like that right out of the box and I'm not going through the entire return process just to get a new cord of my working microphone. So instead i will give it a bad review. Like how hard is it to make sure the cords work before sending it or just including another one?
