AT2020 VS AT2035

[Spaceman3600]

I was wondering if there was a significant difference between the AT2020 and the AT2035 that is worth the price difference. I am mainly going to be using it for voice overs and chats but I may use it for music a bit. Also if there is a better mic for around the same price please let me know.

I would like to inform you first that both of those are XLR which means you need something to provide phantom power

The 2035 has a cleaner high end and a nicer high pass filter but not worth the extra cash

Is that the only difference?

Yes I know I am going to get some sort of audio interface for that.

The AT2035 has a switchable low frequency rolloff at 80Hz,a switchable -10dB pad, better signal/noise ratio, better sensitivity, a shock mount, and a larger diaphragm.

 

What I'd do is listen to audio samples from both (from the same source is the best idea), then look at the features and go from there.

 

I personally have the AT2020USB, it's a fantastic microphone, though I wish I got the XLR version and an audio interface instead.
