Audio-Technica ATR2500x-USB Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Seamless USB Connectivity for Creators

This side-address condenser microphone features a USB output that connects directly to your computer, eliminating the need for an external audio interface. It is the ideal tool for podcasting, home studio recording, field recording, and professional voiceover work, offering a streamlined workflow for Windows and Mac users.

High-Resolution Digital Audio

Equipped with a high-quality A/D converter, the ATR2500x-USB supports a 24-bit depth and a sampling rate of up to 192 kHz. This ensures that every nuance of your performance is captured with extreme clarity and fidelity, meeting the high standards required for modern digital recording.

Real-Time Zero-Latency Monitoring

The microphone features a built-in 3.5 mm headphone jack, allowing you to monitor your audio directly from the source without any distracting delay. Conveniently located buttons on the front of the microphone allow you to adjust your headphone volume on the fly for a perfect monitoring mix.

Superior Sound Isolation and Response

A specially designed low-mass diaphragm provides an excellent frequency response, while the cardioid polar pattern reduces the pickup of unwanted sounds from the sides and rear. This focuses the capture on your voice or instrument, providing superior isolation and minimizing room noise.

Low Self-Noise for Clean Tracks

Engineered for the demands of digital recording, this microphone boasts exceptionally low self-noise. This means your recordings will be free of the "hiss" often found in lower-quality microphones, resulting in cleaner, more professional tracks that are ready for distribution.

Durable Design and Portable Setup

Constructed with rugged metal for long-lasting performance, the ATR2500x-USB is built to endure. It includes a sturdy tripod desk stand with folding legs for easy transport, along with a pivoting threaded mount that attaches securely to conventional microphone boom arms.
