# Audio Gear Used #
Audio Technica AT2020 - on Amazon ➜ geni.us/Sx3z
ART Tube MPC - on Amazon ➜ geni.us/EAVIysl

After watching this microphone review, you will know how the AT2020 condenser microphone sounds when using it for podcasting, live streaming or YouTube.
Overall, I am a big fan of XLR microphones because you can combine them with different audio gear.
Not matter if you use this microphone with expensive equipment, or a budget mic preamp / USB audio interface, in my testing both worked well.
Especially beginners, who want to try podcasting, live streaming, or YouTube, maybe benefit from flexibility like this. Because as your audience grows you can upgrade selected parts of your gear.
In contrast, with a USB mic you won’t have this kind of flexibility, so while the USB version of the AT2020 is easier to use, in the long run, if you ever want to make the switch to XLR gear, it may prove to be a disadvantage.
Overall I give the AT2020 microphone a thumbs up, especially because I like the sound of its custom-engineered low-mass diaphragm.
