    Audio-Technica AT2040 Hypercardioid Dynamic Podcast Microphone

    The Audio-Technica AT2040 Hypercardioid Dynamic Microphone, designed specifically for podcasters and content producers on a tight budget, benefits from A-decades T's of experience building dependable microphones for the studio and stage. The AT2040 has a large-diaphragm dynamic capsule in a classic end-address format, precisely like old broadcast-style mics used by pros. The hypercardioid polar pattern of the microphone not only produces a warm yet strong vocal tone, but it also picks up little ambient noise and room reflections.

    The AT2040 can lessen vocal plosives—popping noises from loud consonants like "p" and "b"—by utilising an internal multistage pop filter rather than an external pop screen. Moreover, the integrated shockmount reduces overall size while reducing noise from stand handling and other vibrations. The AT2040 should be utilised with a mic preamp that can deliver moderate to high gain due to its XLR 3-pin output connector and limited sensitivity. Being a dynamic mic, it requires no batteries or phantom power.


    Integrated Shockmount

    The microphone has an integrated shockmount that was specifically designed to dampen any noise, shock, or vibration that might be transferred by a mic stand, boom, or mount.

    Internal Pop Filter

    The AT2040's multistage foam mesh windscreen includes a nonwoven filter to allow close-up use without annoying pops.

    Highly Directional Pickup

    The hypercardioid polar pattern provides maximum vocal isolation for professional-quality sound with minimal background noise and room reflections.

    Features at a Glance

    • Dynamic microphone delivers warm, assertive broadcast sound that’s perfect for podcasting
    • Large diaphragm for smooth, natural sound and low noise
    • Multistage foam mesh windscreen provides superior internal pop filtering
    • Integrated shockmount attenuates noise, shock, and vibration transmitted through mic stands, booms, and mounts
    • Hypercardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear for maximum vocal isolation
    • XLR 3-pin male output connector
    • No batteries or phantom power required
    • Includes pivoting stand mount, 5/8"-27 to 3/8"-16 threaded adapter, and a soft protective pouch
