Mic alone is $79. USB AND XLR.
Building on the heritage of the renowned 20 Series line of studio microphones, Audio-Technica’s new AT2005USB is an all-purpose microphone designed to take you from the stage to the studio and beyond. This rugged handheld microphone offers two outputs, USB output for digital recording, and an XLR output that connects with a sound system’s conventional microphone input for use in live performance. The microphone plugs right into your computer’s USB port, and functions seamlessly with your favorite recording software.
The AT2005USB also offers a quality analog-to-digital converter for excellent fidelity, and a headphone output with level control for monitoring. Its cardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of unwanted sounds from the sides and rear. The microphone is ideal for live performance, podcasting, home studio recording, field recording, and voiceover use.
I bought one for my workstation. So far works well, although is probably massive overkill for basic teleconferencing.
Headphones: I have a large head and the headphones can hurt a little after extended wear, but it’s actually more comfortable than my previous set of AT phones (a pair of ATH-M40FS I bought about 10 years ago on the mothership).
Microphone: The LED light on the mic is very, very, very bright. VERY bright. Blinding.
Also, I tried plugging it into a Nintendo Switch for kicks (and karaoke!) but it forces you to use the audio out from the microphone, even when docked, and I don’t have a workaround for that unfortunately.
