The mic’s multistage windscreen combines a nonwoven filter with foam mesh to provide superior internal pop filtering. Its specially-designed integrated shock mount prevents unwanted noise by attenuating vibration from a boom arm or mic stand.

The AT2040 comes complete with a pivoting stand mount, 5/8″-27 to 3/8″-16 threaded adapter, and a soft protective pouch.
