Good Microphone but stuck to built in AD convertor
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 8, 2016
When researching into microphones the Audio Technica AT2020 is often recommended as it is modestly price and it sounds great too. From its success came the AT2020 USB microphone, but as with many early USB mics it lacked features such as headphone output which is must for many applications. This lead to the release of AT2020 USB+ microphone, an upgraded AT2020 USB bundled with accessories which include a small tripod desk stand, 10 foot USB cable and pop filter.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 8, 2016
This microphone is similar in design to the previous variants with a medium diaphragm 16mm cardioid mic. It is powered directly by a USB (type A to type B) cable where the connector takes the places of the previous XLR socket. The microphone has a self-noise figure of 20dB, which is not brilliant but is adequately low for most studio applications. There is no means of on the fly filtering so any necessary filters must be applied after recording.
The USB side takes care of the 16bit Analog to Digital conversion which is convenient, but the user is restricted to this convertor. Headphones can be plugged into the phono jack socket on the side of the mic and there are two thumbwheels on the front of the device which control the headphone volume and the balance between the microphone signal and computer stereo output. The microphone is a class-compliant device and requires no additional driver to use on Apple operating systems and a suitable driver should download automatically on Windows (if not already installed).
Recorded speech confirms that this mic has the same characteristic of the XLR variants but with the added warmth to the lower mids in vocals. It is well suited to all vocal styles and can double as a very capable acoustic instrument mic.
The tripod stand carries the weight of the microphone very well and it is of very high quality. However it is prone to falling over if it is knocked.
For audio recordings it is recommended to use the free software Audacity and apply software filers. However for our video recordings we use Camtasia (which does not support audio filters) and instead use Voice Shaper (intended for AM radio) combined with a virtual audio cable to filter audio on the fly.

I purcahsed this product over a year ago for podcasting but haven't started using until recently (hence the late review). The following are the pros and cons as I see them. Please keep in mind, I am an amateur and can't speak to the more technical aspects of the mic.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 23, 2018
Pros:
1) Quality - The most import aspect of this microphone is it's quality. I have used many mics in the past, but none come close to the AT2020+.
2) Background Noise - While it doesn't come with a windscreen, the mic doesn't seem to pick up much backgroudn noise.
3) Durability - The moment you hold this mic you can tell that it is well built.
4) USB - It's extremely convenient that you can plug the mic directly into your computer.
5) Stand - The stand that comes with the mic is quite convenient for podcasting; it saves you the need to purchase a seperate stand.
6) Volume - The mic features a volume control dial on the side, which I've been using quite often.
7) Price - While the mic is definitely not cheap, I find the price very reasonable given the quality.
Cons:
1) Stand - While the stand is convenient, it takes a bit of getting used to in order to make it stand well. Also, if you want to use it for Twitch or gaming and don't want it infront of you, you'll likely have to purchase a more versatile stand.
2) Weight - This is not at all a problem for me, but others might find the mic a bit heavy. That being said, you'd be hard pressed to find a high quality microphone that isn't really on the heavy side.

Everything was perfect from packaging to setup. With this purchase you get an AT2020 Microphone, a tripod Stand, USB Cable, swivel adapter and a pouch. Being a USB microphone it is as easy as plug and play with both OSX and Windows.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 7, 2017
The sounds is amazing. Crystal clear, sharp and professional. It has a headphone jack to listen back and almost zero lag. There is two volume controls on the mic. One for headphones and the other as a monitor. I live in a noisy environment and was worried about it picking up to much. Just by using adjusting the microphone levels in your OS's settings it can work to how you want.
Coupled with other programs it can do a lot more. For live recording.... Adobe Audition can process your voice to give it broadcasting/radio quality. In OBS (Open Broadcasting Software) the noise gate can be adjusted so it picks up your voice and not loud keystrokes. For stuff like Youtube or pre-recorded videos. The sound can be ran through Audacity or a number of programs and maximizes the sound quality due to the AT2020 being one of the best microphones on the market. In terms of quality this in my option beats the Blue Yeti hands down. Aesthetically its looks more pleasing to the eye and due to the slim design it will fit in most shock mounts/ mic stands. I know the Blue Yeti has trouble sliding into some stands.
Do remember that this is a USB mic, so the advantage is you do not need a mixer to adjust the audio levels as with the AT2020 standard. It is all done digitally with whatever program you use.
I also recommend buying a boom arm stand instead of using the standard tripod (more room for Keyboard and mouse) and a cheap pop shield like this one [[ASIN:B01D2PFJ8C Mudder Recording Studio Microphone Mic Windscreen Pop Filter with Double Layer]] for streaming and gaming . If you have the space directly in front of your person then the tripod stand is sufficient.
The only downside is the blue L.E.D. It is not distracting but when coupled with a green screen can shine a little. However you can always rotate the mic so the blue light is on the other side. There is no way to turn this light off but it is the only flaw on what I deem a perfect microphone. The sound is AMAZING!

Perfect usb condenser mic
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 9, 2020
Very happy with the quality and usability. Glad I went with the at2020 usb+ over the rode nt-usb as from what iv’e read its 50/50 on which one sounds better but I find the round shape of the audio technica very useful as I’m able to easily use aftermarket parts such as a cheap + small pop filter and koolertron 50mm universal shock mount which doesn’t add much bulk compared to the proprietary shock + pop filter combo you have to use on the rode nt-usb which is more money and too big!Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 9, 2020
I have it mounted to a rode psa1 boom arm, positioned in front of my mouth. Used whilst gaming and it does not get in the way of the monitor at all, I can easily see over it.
