Best mic in its price class

Great sound quality and dynamic range. Build quality is amazing and overall performance sounds almost identical to mics twice the price.

Great starter kit to build off of

Everything works well. The pop filter is a little lacking in build quality but does the job just fine with its two layers of mesh. The head phones work well enough, but would I recommend upgrading as soon as possible.

AT4040

Audio-Technica AT4040.

The Audio-Technica AT4040 is a large diaphragm, cardioid capacitor microphone designed for use in the most demanding recording applications. Intended for vocal and general instrument recording (piano, guitars, string instruments etc.), the microphones cardioid polar pattern minimizes off-axis signal reducing ambient and residual noise and delivers pristine low-noise recordings.

Low Background Noise, Premium Audio Production Quality.

The AT4040 has an integral 80 Hz hi-pass filter provides easy switching from a flat frequency response to a low-end roll-off. The high-pass position reduces the microphone's sensitivity to popping in close vocal use. It also reduces the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.), room reverberation and mechanically-coupled vibrations.

Low Background Noise, Premium Audio Production Quality.
