Even though I currently play at a hobby level, the difference between what I've used so far and this microphone is huge. At first, I couldn't believe how perfect it sounds. Extremely sensitive. Extremely clear. I'm 1000% satisfied with the purchase.
As an amateur, I never thought a microphone could make such a difference. It is vastly superior to any microphone I've sung into before. Extremely clear and sensitive. Thanks to the SoundCreation team for the recommendation. The package also includes a transport case and an anti-shock mount that can be screwed onto any stand.
What is the most important element of a microphone? The diaphragm. This microphone has a 24.3mm diaphragm. Before you think that other more expensive microphones are better, check the diaphragm size of those microphones. A larger diaphragm means better quality, better linearity over a wider frequency range.
A 10 out of 10 for this microphone. Few microphones match its quality.
It's a microphone that works very well in any recording studio, from home to hi-end.
The AT 2035 is the ideal microphone for making music at home (home studio) as well as in a professional studio! It has a pretty good quality/price ratio and offers almost everything you want from a "high level" studio microphone! I use it together with the Steinberg UR22 Mk2 audio interface and I can say that I am very satisfied with the results! I warmly recommend the AT 2035 to everyone who wants to make music!
I use this microphone together with the PreSonus TubePre V2 preamp, with very good results! Besides the excellent qualities of this microphone, already mentioned by other users, I have one more to add: its fidelity only recommends it for those with at least perfect voices because... it doesn't forgive anything! Congratulations, Audio-Technica & SoundCreation!
Hi Soundcreation. The microphone is very good, I don't need more for what I do, BUT I have a situation to understand better. I have this microphone and a Focusrite 8i6 from you as well, and I wonder how I can get the voice from the microphone to come out STEREO through the interface? Is it possible? If not, what would be the solution? Would an XLR-USB cable solve the problem (thinking of connecting it directly to the PC - to get stereo sound in the process)? Thank you!
This microphone is worth every penny, I use it with a Focusrite Safire 6 USB. All of this was recommended to me by a guy from the Soundcreation team, Alex Muntean, the guy is more than super ok! THANK YOU!
I will be subjective because I have been working with AT products for a long time. I have worked and am working with Sehn, Shure, AKG, Rode, condenser microphones. Plus Audix, Studio Project, etc. This doesn't mean I have the pretension of being an expert. It's just my opinion based on experience.
It's an excellent vocal/ambient/etc microphone for the money it costs. And it's a good microphone even if we set aside the money.
And the Soundcreation team... it's better that they don't stay in Timisoara, because I would be on their case all day.
They are 10+ people.
Not to forget, it's an open, powerful microphone, not dark, soft, plush, etc.
I have it next to an AT4033 AE and the differences are minor: the 2035 is a bit more "crystalline", the 4033 has a bit fuller low-end.
I bought this microphone here in February. Since then, I've tested it for voice recordings, acoustic guitar (on the rosette), and as a 'room' microphone for recording drums. Every time it has proven to be an absolutely faithful microphone. I've also used it for recording rehearsals with my band. I can say that the maximum sound pressure level was almost reached, but not exceeded. In any case, it's worth every penny. The quality is far above 2020, in my opinion.
