Complete Recording Kit

This bundle pairs the AT2020 cardioid condenser microphone with a reflection filter, tripod stand, pop filter, 10 foot XLR cable and closed-back monitor headphones. The microphone uses a 16mm low-mass diaphragm to capture vocals and instruments in project or professional studio settings. The cardioid pattern rejects off-axis ambience and noise. Everything needed for a basic recording chain is included in one package.

Studio-Focused Capture

The AT2020 delivers a linear frequency response from 20Hz to 20kHz for accurate signal reproduction across the audible range. High SPL handling and wide dynamic range allow loud sources to be recorded with minimal noise and distortion. The microphone requires external phantom power supplied by an audio interface or mixer not included in the kit. The pivoting threaded stand mount enables precise positioning for optimal sound capture.

Bundled Accessories Explained

The reflection filter and its dedicated tripod stand reduce room reflections around the microphone for cleaner recordings in untreated spaces. A clip-on pop filter with gooseneck attenuates plosive sounds during vocal takes. The 10 foot XLR cable uses Rean connectors for reliable signal transfer. Closed-back studio monitor headphones provide isolation for monitoring without bleed into the microphone.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the AT2020 on the included tripod stand without it sagging?

Thread the supplied pivoting stand mount onto the tripod, slide the microphone into the mount and tighten the knob while supporting the body so the 16 mm capsule stays level.

Which parts of this kit will need replacing first with regular studio use?

The pop-filter foam and the XLR cable see the most wear; the closed-back headphones' ear pads will also compress over time, while the condenser capsule itself is built for long-term service.

What limits the AT2020 during long, loud vocal takes?

Its maximum SPL ceiling is reached before the 20 Hz–20 kHz response or the cardioid rejection degrades, so very close, high-volume sources can clip the capsule.
