AT2020 : Amazing Microphone For Under 100 Euro

I use this mic for recording vocals, acoustic guitar and have tried it on electric guitar amps, in my bedroom and in the studio. I find it records things clearly with a detailed high end and very well for the price.

Pros:

- Affordable

- Mic feels like it is very robust (although I'm still very careful with it)

- Sounds great

- The mic clip is very strong

Cons:

- There's no pad on the mic which could prove useful in some situations BUT, I have yet to come close to overloading the mic's pre-amp

- No high pass filter. I think this mic should've come with a high pass filter AT LEAST to accommodate the lack of a proper shock mount to prevent low-frequency rumble.

- The mic itself along with its mic clip is pretty heavy which might cause some problems if you're using a short or long stand that leans over as it may cause the stand to topple over.

All in all, I would recommend this mic to anyone looking for a condenser microphone, whether they are experienced or not. I wish this microphone was one of the first ones that I bought because it's such a great microphone and it's definitely one most people should invest in.
