Audio Technica Cardoid Condenser Studio Microphone w/USB AT2020USB is a microphone used for recording and live podcasting.
It has a condenser technology that provides a great tonal quality.

OVERALL OPINION

What I like most about it, its the studio quality provided by it and how easy is to setup and use this mic, it has an usb connection that is compatible for MAC OS X , Windows 7, Vista, and of course Windows Xp.
I really do like also the low-mass diaphragm that increases frequency ranges and the result from it that is a clear, very powerful yet without and noise response that you can find in some very Pro mics.
It has a nice cardioid polar pattern that captures the tone very well, also a fixed-charge back plate, permanently polarized condenser, and the greatest features of this product is the usb connectivity and also the tripod desk stand.

My opinion about the value of price is quite great, you can buy this mic on amazon or ebay for only about 150$, however it provides a great sound recording that can be also used for acoustic guitar, pianos, and one of its greater features is that you just plug and play and still get a great sound without and additional noise.

Another great thing about this mic is that is a condesner type of mic, that captures exactly the sounds and it doesn't mutate them like dynamic type of mic do.
You can record some drums or an electric guitar and still get a great studio quality of sounds, if you're searching for something more universal, you can choose this mic because you can use it for many many musical instruments.

Knowing that I know and getting to know the musical market, I suggest buying this mic if you don't want to buy something very fancy and don't waste tons of money and still get a pretty sound, than this is the right choice.
