Audio-Technica ATR2100x-USB Dynamic Microphone

The Audio-Technica ATR2100x-USB is the most recommended beginner podcast microphone by audio educators worldwide — a dynamic cardioid microphone with both USB-C and XLR connectivity that provides the same upgrade path as the Samson Q2U at the Audio-Technica quality level. The dynamic capsule rejects background noise and room reflections effectively in untreated home environments, the built-in headphone output provides zero-latency monitoring, and the USB connection works with any computer without drivers while the XLR connection works with any audio interface or mixing desk.
