The AT2040 features a multi-layer windscreen with a non-woven filter and high-quality foam mesh that provides exceptional filtering. The built-in shock mount prevents unwanted noise and vibrations that can pass through even the best tripods and arms.

The large diaphragm of this microphone offers smooth, natural sound, regardless of the application. The special internal windscreen, combined with the supercardioid polar pattern, results in exceptional directionality, reducing external noise while producing a warm, classic sound. The AT2040 podcast microphone facilitates recording of individual or dual vocals while in the same room, so even when using two microphones for recording a podcast for two people, users will enjoy exceptional sound capture.
