Audio-Technica ATR2100x-USB Cardioid Dynamic Microphone (ATR Series)

Very good microwave. Bought for podcasting. Good quality audio. Easy set up. Had to buy pop cover separately

For beginners, sound quality Decent mic for those who want to record at home. So far it has seemed quite reliable. Best part is the multiple connectivity options it gives. Xlr to xlr(not using this), usb c to usb a(laptop), usb c to usb c (phone).. direct phone connection for recording is an amazing feature in terms of ease of recording. Doesn't need a seperate battery or any charging for itself. ( Relief from one more charging device) Haven't recorded a lot yet, but whatever little I did sounded good. Maybe bit of setting in the recording software can improve it.

Great product for beginners!

Because it's a dynamic mic, it's pretty decent at rejecting noise: I managed to record vocals for a song with literal construction going on a floor above me. Sound quality wise it's great; this is often recommended for podcasting and I completely understand why. Currently using it with the USB port, as I'm saving up for a good audio interface, but once I get it I can still continue using this mic with the XLR port! This dual-port feature alone probably makes it a better option than the multiple other USB-only mics available in this range: you can upgrade your setup later and still use it! Some minor cons: 1. The provided tripod/stand is pretty flimsy as multiple people have pointed out, handle with care if you plan on using it. 2. Would have preferred an included windscreen. I had to purchase some cheap ones on my own (along with a pop filter!) 3. The first model I recieved had some internal issue which caused static noises while recording through USB. Had to ask for a replacement (which is working fine). 4. Including a USB C to USB C cable is great (and this mic does work great on my android phone), but apparently the usb c standard is not implemented correctly, and your existing c to c cable (or many third party ones) might not work. Might be an important point if you're buying this exclusively for your iPad or phone. In summary, go for it if you're planning on using it for singing, podcasting or any kind of voice work, and also if you record in noisy households!

Mic is amazing along with sound quality, I have been usin it for more than 6 months, only 1 things mic's stand quality is so low that it cannot bare the weight of the mic also.it gets loose which let your mic fall on the ground thay may damage your mic please do have an extra set of mic stand when you buy this, because it's stamd is useless..

No noise cancellation at all Catches more noise than the laptop or normal ear buds do And no return policy Buying this was a big mistake, now stuck with this for forseeable future Need to pack myself in noiseless corner of a room and not allow even a minor noise to record A waste bag item

Its good mic but noisy but you can connect it with your mobile and laptop its so handly and good moc i recommend this mic its good sound quality

It's much better than the other mics in this price range, very minimum room noise and captures the voice perfectly. It's excellent, I'm happy with the purchase. Add a windscreen/pop filter on top for even more noise reduction. I'm using a book arm with this, the provided stand is only for travel purposes and is short... Overall 5/5, glad I bought this.

Certainly there are better microphones, but they are also more expensive. The ATR2100X-USB is a multipurpose microphone that can be used efficient for webcasts, teleconferences, on-line gaming and any other similar activity.

As a beginner diving into the world of podcasting and voiceovers, I couldn't be happier with my choice of the Audio-Technica ATR2100x-USB Cardioid Dynamic Microphone. This versatile microphone is a game-changer, and it's designed to be a reliable companion for years to come. What sets this microphone apart is its dual connectivity. With both USB-C digital output and XLR analog output, it provides flexibility that's hard to beat. While many competitors offer only mini-USB, this microphone goes the extra mile, offering the connectivity options I need for various recording scenarios. It's a simple but powerful feature that makes a world of difference. The microphone itself delivers crisp, clear audio that's a joy to work with. And when paired with a windscreen and a pop filter (both sold separately), it transforms into a radio-quality microphone, capturing every nuance of your voice. Whether you're podcasting, recording voiceovers, or engaging in any content creation, this microphone truly shines. The package comes with both XLR and USB-C cables, making setup a breeze, and the not so sturdy tripod desk stand with folding legs is a practical addition, albeit not very useful for my studio. It's easy to transport, if you were doing a mobile recording or voiceover job, it would work. I have been particularly impressed by the sound quality. The cardioid polar pattern reduces unwanted sounds from the sides and rear, enhancing the isolation of the desired sound source. Now, let's talk about the downsides. It would have been great if a windscreen was included in the package, as it's an essential accessory for minimizing plosives and improving audio quality. Additionally, the stand, while functional, could be more stable. It might wobble a bit, especially if you're working in a busy environment. In summary, the Audio-Technica ATR2100x-USB Dynamic Microphone is a fantastic choice for anyone starting a podcast or diving into voiceovers. Its exceptional audio quality, dual connectivity, and ease of setup make it an ideal choice for beginners and a valuable tool for professionals. Just remember to invest in a windscreen, and you'll be well on your way to creating top-notch audio content. This microphone is a sound investment for anyone passionate about recording and podcasting.

package was received in the quickest of time and product is extremely good.

El micrófono es profesional, sencillo pero cumple con todas las necesidades y requisitos que se le pide. Las conexiones inferiores son ideales junto con el soporte de tres pies. Es compatible con espumas típicas y con soportes publicitarios cuadrados o rectangulares para informar del programa o canal televisivo. Para realizar podcast es más que suficiente para empezar.

This mic is great. My AT2005 USB recently stopped working but I liked the sound and features so much I kinda didn't want to take a chance with an off brand so I bought this one. The mic is great it's a huge improvement over the 2005 but, the in line monitoring in USB mode is too loud and not adjustable. The volume control only adjust the overall volume of the device you're using, so the feedback (though tolerable) isn't adjustable. I'm using it for online Kareoke (smule) via my phone. It plugs directly into the USB-C port on my Android phone and works fine.the phone sees it as a headset & mic. It's a good purchase and I'm happy with it overall. For some reason the Amazon description says it needs a lithium ion battery, this is not true. Update: if you pair this mic with a good preamp (where you can adjust the gain) using xlr, it’s fantastic. I can even use it in a noisy environment and ,as long as the gain is adjusted, it offers excellent noise rejection.
