AT2040USB Microphone Features

Featuring a hypercardioid polar pattern and an extended frequency response, this microphone captures targeted sound only, eliminating common ambient noise, like the hum of a computer fan. With a narrower pickup angle than a cardioid design, the AT2040USB provides focused vocal capture, which is ideal for voice-focused content creators and who stream and chat with followers.

As if that wasn’t enough, this USB microphone has a high-resolution A/D converter with a sampling rate of up to 24-bit/96 kHz, ensuring crystal-clear and natural sound. The microphone’s robust metal body includes an integrated shock mount to attenuate unwanted noise and vibration, while its internal pop filter protects against harsh spoken sounds. The AT2040USB dynamic mic is compatible with the AT8458a shock mount (sold separately) to further reduce unwanted noise.

Conveniently located on the body of the microphone, the soft-touch capacitive mute button allows for quick and silent audio muting. Additionally, the two-state (blue/red) LED ring allows users to identify when the microphone is ready to capture audio and when the microphone is muted. Users can rely on the built-in headphone jack with volume and mix controls to directly monitor audio with no delay and to blend the microphone signal with computer audio. Offering plug-and-play functionality, this content creator mic can connect to your computer for immediate use with no additional software or hardware required.

Accessories Included:

• USB Type-C™ to USB Type-A cable
• USB Type-A to USB Type-C™ USB adapter

Whether you are just starting your content creation journey or are a seasoned professional, the AT2040USB microphone is a perfect, studio-quality microphone to add to your current setup.
