Review: Great product - Amazing sound comes out of this thing Review: Microfone honesto - Excelente para captação de voz, tem que usar meio "de ladinho" ou com um pop bom, assim como todo USB ele "pufa" um pouco, mas isso resolve. No mais, tá na lida substituindo um Rode NT2A. Esse 2020 é tão bom que comprei uma versão XLR pra deixar de backup. Vale a pena. Ps: p pop filter que está na foto NAO ACOMPANHA o produto. Na época da minha compra a foto era só do Mic, suporte de mesa e cabo, e é isso que vem, não vem pop filter. ## Features - High quality condenser USB microphone that can be easily used by anyone.

I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 on a fairly new Dell Latitude. The OS will recognize the mic under Settings-Sound. Zoom will recognize the mic, but Audacity won't. I usually use this mic on a MacMini M1, with no problems at all. I'd say that mic might not work with shareware on the LinuxPlatform. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product *by O***H on 21 September 2024* Amazing sound comes out of this thing ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Microfone honesto *by C***Á on 14 December 2024* Excelente para captação de voz, tem que usar meio "de ladinho" ou com um pop bom, assim como todo USB ele "pufa" um pouco, mas isso resolve.

The process of setting up the microphone was very easy and the microphone has a very nice weight to it you could literally use it as a weapon. The stand is also very unique and perfect I love that it's not a basic stand. Now the mic quality is a night and day difference I had to always use my laptop mic to communicate with my boyfriend and of course it was awful but getting this mic has changed everything, talking is so much easier and I don't have to constantly repeat myself it's basically like going from 360p to 4k. HUGE. plus the price for this is veryyy affordable considering everything it does well this is my first ever mic and it would be an amazing first for anyone. Overall 10/10. ## Frequently Bought Together - Audio-Technica AT2020USB-X Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone, Black - Audio-Technica AT8455 Shock Mount for AT2020USB-X and AT2020USB-XP Microphones - Pop Filter,PEMOTech [Upgraded Three Layers] Metal Mesh & Foam & Etamine Layer Microphone Windscreen Cover Handheld Mic Shield Mask,Microphone Accessories for Vocal Recording,Youtube videos,Streaming --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/659267341-at2020usb-x-cardioid-condenser-usb-microphone-black](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/659267341-at2020usb-x-cardioid-condenser-usb-microphone-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-11*
