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

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..

For beginners, sound qualityDecent 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.

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!

Great product for beginners!

No noise cancellation at allCatches more noise than the laptop or normal ear buds doAnd no return policyBuying this was a big mistake, now stuck with this for forseeable futureNeed to pack myself in noiseless corner of a room and not allow even a minor noise to recordA waste bag item

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.

Great mic with pristine quality and high clarity
