SOLID review! Quality video sir. I used AT mics for the first 6 years of my career, only recently switched but i’ll still break out the AT for certain jobs. Absolute workhorse 👍🏼
Thanks for checking out the video! I love Audio Technica microphones. I really love the AT4040, that one is something special, especially for the price. Of course I'm expanding my microphone catalog but as you said, there will always be a point to go back to the Audio Technicas.
Let me tell you, the review has been truly amazing! I wanted to ask you, if you do think this mic is still worth it today, since I have been watching reviews and I am on the verge of purchasing it. Oh and by the way, the fact that you do not add music throughout the whole video is wonderful to me, I like focusing on what the youtuber has to say with no background music, so thank you for that. Keep it going!
First off thank you for checking out the video! I really do appreciate it. Also trust me I made some editorial mistakes early on with music. Not intentionally but mistakes were made that some people were voicing their opinions on. To keep it PG lol. Now this all depends on what you are making and the environment you are working in. The 2035 is a great option. Definitely an upgrade from the 2020, which I love. Just answer these for me and I can give you a better answer. What kind of stuff are you making? How is the acoustics in your recording space?
@@RebelTech1990 First off, thanks for answering! And well, I am mostly doing remote work of interpretation of English Spanish, so I am looking for the best quality possible (at least for my budget), and my room is certainly untreated in the strict term of the word. Though it is pretty "non-echoey", and it has no panels nor anything. I am doing some singing too!
If you are planning on doing singing as well, then the 2035 would be a good choice. If it wasn’t for the singing I would recommend a dynamic. So if you budget is around the $150 mark, then this is your best option. I would also recommend trying some cheap treatment options. Flat walls, especially flat parallel walls are very bad for audio. Shelves, and soft materials will reduce the reflection. If you have a hard floor, like wood or tile, you can set up an area rug. That will help a lot. Of course if you have a carpet then you are all set as far as the floor is concerned. Hope this helps and feel free to ask more questions if you have any.
I agree, it might be the best Voice over mic under $300. Maybe even under $400. The Shure SM7B is pretty amazing for voice over as well, but it has a darker tone that could turn people off. I’m gonna start doing some voice over and I think the 2035 will be a part of the group that I play around with. I feel my 416 will be the one I go with but that’s not even fair for the 2035 to complete with the 416. Have you had the 2035 for a while?
Absolutely, It has a the right tuning for vocal performances of all types. Will it be perfect, probably not, but with some love in post you should be able to get it sounding very close to how you want it. Thanks for checking out the video!
Not due went, there are multiple frequency responds charts and the internet. I can definitely tell they boosted around 4 to 7 which is where the nasally sounds live. However, the charts seem to show they don't start boosting till about 10. Real bummer. I wanted one
I don’t know much about the 440 pure. I don’t own one. From what I’ve heard it seems to be on the same level, quality wise, to the AT2035. But tone, you’ll have to listen for yourself to know for sure
Yup, my sister helped me out. It's actually a haircut process. I'm growing the top and buzzing the sides as it gets longer. At least until I start applying for jobs, I figure I'll have fun with it until then.
