The AT2040USB is a hypercardioid dynamic podcast microphone that adds USB functionality to the broadcast-style performance of the AT2040, making it suitable for podcasters, streamers and other content creators seeking professional results. It is designed to deliver a natural frequency response with rich, powerful lows and clear studio sound, helping live streamers and YouTubers improve the perceived quality of their content.

Its highly directional hypercardioid pickup pattern focuses on the voice and reduces common ambient noise, such as computer fan hum, which is ideal for creators and gamers who stream and chat with followers. The robust metal body incorporates an integrated shock mount to minimise handling noise and vibration, and an internal multistage pop filter to control harsh spoken sounds. A built-in headphone jack, touch-sensitive mute button and USB Type-C output provide direct, plug-and-play connectivity to computers for real-time monitoring and control.
