| Stomps any USB mic. Great starter XLR mic!May 22, 2016 Audio quality is stellar. Went from a Blue Yeti to this and I'll never go back. Mic is light and professional looking. No directional recording switches, but all I do is cardioid so nothing is lost there. Works fine with Focusrite Scarlet Solo. amazing microphone, feels like I'm recording in a studioMay 18, 2016 Wow is this microphone amazing! It feels like a great mic, it looks great, and it sounds amazing. There's really no downside to this thing. I guess my chief complaint would be that it's SO sensitive that literally anything you can hear with your ear (distance sounds, neighbors, ambient sounds) can all be heard through the mic as well. You may need some type of software to filter out background noise unless you're in a soundproof studio! Hehe. Definitely best bang for your buck. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED RECORDING MICROPHONE FOR VOCALS AND GENERAL USEApril 21, 2016 I buy the things I review, I never trade positive reviews for free stuff.
This is an amazing microphone for an equally amazing price. I've been a fan of Audio Technica microphones since the mid 1970's. Their products are not following fads, they are innovative and quality for reasonable prices.
In my studio I have many microphones that sell for over $1200, I've owned several U-87 and I've built some of my own large diaphragm microphones so I'm familiar with the beasts with over 50 years of recording and pro sound experience under my belt.
This Audio Technica model has the largest diaphragm of the whole AT line regardless of price. Diaphragm size wise you can't really compare it to the top two most expensive AT models since those use completely different diaphragm construction. Of the microphones that AT offers with traditional LDC construction this one has the largest of them all yet it's one of their lowest price models.
I have an AT 4047 which cost about four times as much as this AT2035 and while the more expensive model does have a slightly different sound I can't say it's really better. I've recorded the same vocal using both and often I prefer the AT2035 because it has a bit smoother response, a little less bright above 5K.
The AT2035 is really a very balanced and excellent sounding microphone, I will probably buy another one so I have a stereo pair.
Interested in how the size of the diaphragms stack up?
AT2020 = .63"
AT2035 = .96"
AT2050 = .80"
AT4033 = .45"
AT4040 = .80"
AT4047 = .84"
AT4050 = .84"
So there you go, the AT2035 wins the size competition and it's an excellent sounding microphone for a seriously bargain price. This microphone compares very favorably with my vintage AKG 414B-ULS microphones, very smooth frequency response.
The shock mount that comes with the AT2035 is very tight, makes it a little difficult to get the mic in and out, this mic slips right into the shock mount that came with my AT4047 so it's easy to switch back and forth between the two for different vocal tracks.
As a side note, the AT2020 is another incredible deal, it's very low priced compared to other professional microphones but it does not disappoint in sound quality. I have several of those which I use for mic'ing up my 4x12 Marshall cabinets, l love the clear and even sound these microphones have.
I own several MXL LDC microphones which always need work to sound great, I've replaced the diaphragms in five MXL 2001 and use these on drum toms. I wish I'd known how good these low priced AT microphones sounded before going down that path, the AT2035 makes an excellent tom tom microphone too and it's all done, you don't need to spend an afternoon disassembling mic's and soldering fragile expensive components. The diaphragms I installed in my MXL mic's cost as much as a done AT2035, save yourself the work and get the AT.
Highly recommended!
Good music to all! Great mic!August 24, 2015 This is a great mic, with amazing sound. The quality of this mic meets or exceeds mic's that cost much more. Love it.January 15, 2015 Can't be beat for the money. This is one of the cleanest and as-good-as-it-gets sounding large diaphragm, studio microphones. The only noticeable upgrade from this would be in closer to $1000 range where you get less bias noise (which is very small already comparing to most in $200-$400 range). Excelent dynamic range suitable for gospel singing and is sensitive enough to pick up the tiniest of the details (needs a very quiet studio as expected). The wind-screen that comes with is a very functional and effective basic screen. Shockmount is very good as well. The cable is a plus. | | | |

| Very Nice!September 10, 2017 Great reviews and nicely made. So far, I've only recorded my tenor sax with it, which certainly needed a fair amount of EQ. I suppose it's par for the course, but if response is as flat as it's puported to be, I'm not sure why the horn sounded honkier and stuffier than it does in reality. Rolling off the mids and boosting the highs resulted in a fine recorded sound. This microphone is amazing. The quality is way better than I expected ...July 8, 2017 This microphone is amazing. The quality is way better than I expected for the price and the included shock mount means one less product to buy at the same time. My only concern so far (I have only had it a week now) is that the included XLR cable was defective - the signal was inaudible due to excessive static. This was easily remedied by purchasing a replacement cable, however. Didn't come with an XLR cable but is an amazing mic.May 6, 2017 I'm sad it didn't arrive with an XLR cable as advertised. Otherwise it would be five stars. I also understand stuff like that can happen so I had to buy a cable here locally for $10 --AND ... Well, it's just a cable. Other than that it is a great mic and it works amazing with a behringer Xenyx q802 USB on PC and it came faster than expected. It's alright but you get NO STAND!February 20, 2017 So.... This is a nice package. Just FYI it does NOT come with a mic stand. Not sure why it's pictured here. You'll need to buy that separately. Top of the line professional XLR MicrophoneApril 12, 2016 Definitely a top of the line microphone. I bought this for recording not only my voice but also for recording instrumental audio. It works great for all ranges of audio. FFFaaantastic
My only complaint, which could be related to my mixer but I only have one at the moment, is that there is a slight hum in the background. This is easily fixed when you are recording audio, but if you plan on streaming with this microphone then you wont be able to control it.
Again, this could just be related to the mixer I have (Behringer Q802USB 8-Channel). | | | |

| no xlr cableDecember 26, 2016 I give this 3 stars only because the xlr cable was not included like stated in description. How disappointing when your child opens box on Christmas and cannot use it. Our local stores did not carry cable boo. Have to wait to have delivered. My bad I should have checked box before I wrapped it. Trash accessoriesDecember 23, 2016 Mic is great but everything else is garbage. Buy separately. XLR cable not includedJuly 18, 2016 Buyer Beware. Item did not come with XLR cable. Was told that cable is no longer included in this bundle. Please check before you purchase to make sure! The mic seems good. But I did not get the pop filter ...October 3, 2015 The mic seems good. But I did not get the pop filter or cables that goes with the package. I love the micAugust 24, 2015 Just a note, I love the mic, but there is NOT a pop filter OR an XLR Cable included with this. Bit of false advertising there. | | | |

| Two StarsSeptember 26, 2017 came with the wrong cord and i couldnt get a hold of them to request a new one Mic, Good. Scarlitite,Bad.September 25, 2017 Mic is excellent. The audio interface is horrid. You have to unplug the usb cord and plug it back in once in a while. Why you ask? It makes you sound like a drunk, depressed robot until you reset the interface. Sometimes resetting it will not work and you stuck on mute while streaming. Find a better audio interface. Two StarsFebruary 18, 2017 No Shock Mount but should be as described in info Wrong exspected!July 26, 2016 No pop filter and XLR cable like i've exspect. Anyway THE Mic is Good, but look like the secondhand. Do Not PurchaseAugust 18, 2015 I would not purchase this. I feel like I got stolen from. Terrible microphone. | | | |

| Spent over an hour and couldn't get this dumb thing workingApril 7, 2017 Didn't receive cord with package. Drove 45 minutes to my nearest Guitar Center and bought the XLR cable. Spent over an hour and couldn't get this dumb thing working. Drove back out to Guitar center and luckly the guys there helped me. Turns out the Microphone is dead. So they sent me a dead microphone without a cable and made me waste half of my day trying to figure this crap out. THANKS ALOT!!!!! Dead on ArrivalApril 6, 2017 Junk product, had it in a drawer for a few months then when I needed it. Nothing but silence, just a dead mike with no output at all. Too late to send it back. Just a worthless piece of junk. Into the trash. Mic, but no StandMarch 25, 2017 Mic is great as expected being an AT2035, but if going to spend more buying a bundle for a stand, I expect it to have the stand included. I have been trying to get this mic to work ...March 4, 2017 I have been trying to get this mic to work for wayyy too long now, the second i hooked it up and listened to it it was insanely muffled. I did a bit of research and ended up buying a new mixer, that didnt work... so i bought a phantom power supply and that also didnt work. I am now convinced this mic was dropped at some point in time before it had gotten to me. I have tried every single option possible, every time i call audio technica it sends me to a voice mail where i state my name, number and problem but no one calls me back. No pop filter or Cable includedOctober 1, 2016 Pop filter and cable was not included.
The mic is awesome, 5 stars for product, 1 star for Beach Camera | | | |
