ATR-2100 REVIEW

As always I would like to start out by giving a big thanks to Karen, from Audio Technica for sending this unit out for me to review, to check out all of Audio Technicas great products click HERE. This will be by first microphone review on my blog, but I do know enough about microphones to be comfortable doing a review on it. The unit I am reviewing is the ATR-2100 Handheld dynamic USB output microphone. What you will get is the microphone, a nice stand for the microphone, USB cord, and XLR cord. The stand works great, but isnt very flexible, it does angle up and down but the legs on the stand can only hold the weight of the microphone in one position. The microphone has a standard look to it, with the USB output, and XLR analog output on the bottom of the mic, as well as the headphone jack, and volume control. The mic has a pop filter, or wind screen inside, so purchasing a seperate filter probably won't be necessary for use by most. Lastly on the microphone you will find the on/off button on the side. The sound quality is relatively clear, and crisp, to head a sample check out my ATH-PRO700MK2 review HERE,I used my ATR-2100 to do the voice over. The sound is pretty good for the MSRP of $79.99. This is a great microphone for voice overs, podcasts, etc. but may not be the best quality for stuio recordings. Overall i would give the mic an 8/10 overall, to check out the mic, and all the specs and details on it click HERE.
