I'm currently using 2 AT2020 as overheads and they sound, to me, much better than the MXL V250 is was using. I was using the AT2021 at first for a snare mic but the AT2020s pick up the snare so well, I used it for a hi hat mic since I do a lot of foot work. It picks up very nicely for that use, plus it's high SPL. Overall, working with a budget, these are amazing! I'm still working on using my mixer properly but I'd imagine they will just sound better when I can balance them better. Would definitely buy again and recommend to anyone that doesn't have $1000 to spend on mics.
Great package for home recording

I started using Garage Band a few weeks ago to record guitar and voice. I realized quickly that the SM57 I was using for vocal and guitar was not cutting it. Guitar center suggested this 2020/2021 package and I tried it. What a difference. I am sure there are better and more expensive mics out there that might be even better. But for a home recording guy just starting out, this seems like a lot of value for the money.

I broght Audio-Technica AT2041SP for my in house studio and this mic blew me away. I've had alot of expensive mics before, but this one is the competition against sound. Honestly, this is a great mic for home based studios or for use on computer software such as fruity loops, cakewalk, reason, etc. Beyond that i'm not sure, but it will give you a good feedback. The price for the Audio-Technica AT2041SP is under rated. This is a better mic then what the price is and i'm not sucking up. Trust me, it's better than what the price makes you think.

I bought these to record my acoustic guitar and possibly some vocals and I couldn't be happier!!! They pick up the tone perfectly!!! They both work great and I have made several awesome recordings already! I would recommend these to anyone who wants to upgrade microphones or get new microphones to start out. They are very inexpensive, so I thought I was getting a pair of mediocre microphones but they are everything BUT mediocre. They are perfect for anyone who wants to start recording, or replace inferior microphones. I'll probably never buy another mic in my life, these ones are great!
