Audio-Technica AT 2035

Depends on your needs and purpose. I'm talking about recording spoken word, not singing or instrument recording. This experience is not from extreem low or high voice
rarities. More like midrange male and female cases.

I'm compering it to NT1A and there is ... nothing to compare.
Rode is so much fuller and natural, capturing much-much more nuances of human voices, AT2035 is limited from both ends and in the middle as well. Tested with Presonus IOStation soundcard with various voices.

2035 is probably good solo podcasting for "radio voice" when adding some plugins to pump up the voice (but this can be done with much cheaper mics also), I suppose... not sure 'couse I do not podcast but presuming because it has low cut (why els it is there? No use for voiceover at least, it thins up even female voice)... But dialogs with several participants and large diafragm condenser mic - probably not a good joice... just an opinnion, not experience.
Relyed on comparing from other users to several series 2000 AT mics, 2035 seemed to be with the best frequency range, especially compared to AT2020.
You have to try it yourself, do never relay compleatly on others opinion as far you gather enaough experience. And even then you can never predict.
Joice is yours!

build quality is good. Looks amazing, feels substantial. Low noise floor. Limited to cardiod polar pattern but sports a level pad and low cut filter. It sounds very modern, with a distinct upper mid and high frequencies bump. Perfect for dark vocalists but with some voices it can sound peaky and harsh, exagerating sibilants. When enhancing during the mix and mastering process, for example using saturation and harmonics, it has to be tamed. I used it extensively even on cello, and using a lot of eq it can deliver on many different sources, but I think that its main use is for crisp modern vocals. It has been reliable and the shockmount, albeit made of plastic, has proven to be sufficient once the screw has been firmly tightened.
