www-soundonsound-com-2993		Audio Technica AT2020			.html	text/html	1429	175	76	Audio-Technica's new entry-level mic puts in a star performance. Slightly smaller than Audio-technica's other side-entry vocal mics, the casing contains a 16mm-diameter back-electret capsule, which is slightly smaller than the usual one-inch-diameter capsules adopted by most microphone designs of this type. I don't for a moment imagine that Audio-Technica would recommend this mic for recording classical instruments from several metres away, but you might still get away with it if the performance is reasonably loud. This could be good news when working in studios with computers, as keeping the computer noise out of the microphones can be a major headache. Clearly Audio-Technica aren't without some stiff competition, but they have a reputation for good engineering and good-sounding mics, and a bit of reputation goes a long way when you're trying to choose between similarly priced microphones. The AT2020 is built to the same standard as Audio-Technica's more up-market microphones, and I certainly have no complaints about its subjective sound quality.	./cache/www-soundonsound-com-2993.html	./txt/www-soundonsound-com-2993.txt
