After ten years, the Audio Technica AT2021 is still a popular choice for both instruments and vocals, but how does it stack up against the competition? In my detailed review, I test the physical and audio qualities of the AT2021 for dialogue in both close mic and boom applications including comparisons with other popular pencil condenser microphones.

I share the unboxing and specifications before taking a close look at the AT2021. This detailed review includes tests for handling noise, plosives, background and off-axis rejection, as well as thorough tests and comparisons using unprocessed audio. I also include samples of processed audio from the AT2021 to give you an idea of how the sound of this legendary microphone from Audio Technica might be tailored to your preference.

Is the Audio Technica AT2021 the right choice for your dialogue microphone? This detailed and up-to-date review will help you answer that question. Join me as I share my search for a new boom microphone for dialogue.

============================================================

Do This First:

To get the most out of your recording or streaming space, I recommend sound treatment including acoustic absorption panels. This is the single biggest way to improve your audio before investing in other gear. You can make your own, or I highly recommend GIK Acoustics as they manufacture some of the best quality panels available at an excellent value.
