I have spent so many hours listening to my MXL990 that I always recognize it immediately. And as always I recommend that the AT2020 only be used as a paper weight.
Just stumbled on this, good test. Mic A has more high end and detail; you can hear mouth noises, like a "wetness" when you say "microphone". Mic B is a lot smoother.
For which microphone? Honestly, I use no EQ or Effects for my videos. ALL of the sound comes from the mic, but I do get really close and make sure to treat my room properly.
P120? That's is a great ENTRY level unit. Personally. I think the P120 would be better. Unfortunately, right now, I don't have one available to do a test video for you.
@@Qualizar ooh thank you so much bro for your help You’re amazing person So I will buy the p120 , because im a voice over by the way.. God bless you🙏❤️
I know this is out of topic but if you want to help I am very grateful so I wanted to buy between mxl 990, at2020 and akg p120 I use it only for home studios. which do you think I should choose? thanks btw.
Check out Podcastage video on the P120, he does guitar tests in his videos which is something I really wish I could add in. I need to learn an instrument. 😶 ruclips.net/video/K56ZaReFpVo/видео.html
@@ceroseis de bajo presupuesto el At 2020 es una buena opción, yo lo tengo y tiene muy buena calidad! Más arriba un rode nt1a, tiene muy buena respuesta & una piso de ruido que no se escucha casi nada de ruidos molestos.. Y el Mxl 990 compite con el nt1a para mi.. espero haberte ayudado
The audio quality of a microphone is not so cut and dry. Each microphone can have different performance for different voice types. So, what I like to do is try and provide a baseline for each microphone so you can make your own educated decision.
Jorge, the full follow up is in the AT2020 review. This video was an early test of a method of video making, I think you'll be glad to know, I didn't like it, so I didn't make any more like this. 🙃 All future videos are complete.
Oh wow. So, the AT2020 is the one I thought sounded better, before seeing which one was which. Guess imma go with the AudTec one. Fa shooooo thx for doing the comparison
i wish the A is the MXL990, but i think its the t2020.
A is the MXL990
B is the AT2020
Why did I have the EZACT same thoughts...I was “afraid” the A was the at2020 lol cause I didn’t like it but it looks like a common go to lol

990 has more bass response
AT2020 has high frequency response
which gives you the illusion of wider sound scape
A. sounded like it has an slight eq boost
B. Sounds more natural
MXL both 770 & 990 got more brilliant, clear sound and less self noise than AT 2020 and also AKG p 120
do a video on the sound settings your using I want that sound
For which microphone?
Honestly, I use no EQ or Effects for my videos. ALL of the sound comes from the mic, but I do get really close and make sure to treat my room properly.
Mic A sounds way better.
Dope I got the AT2020 and someone is gettin the MXL
I'll be glad to hear your thoughts. As you can tell, they are similar but have some minor differences. Personally, I still love both of them. 😁
Thank you
I like A more; the bass is more clear to me and I think it is AT2020...Which is which?
Answer is revealed in the pinned comments. :)
i will assume mic 1 is at2020 because it has the p explosion more than mic 2 but the two microphones is very Similar
I prefer the mic A
Can you Suggest me
What i Buy Mxl 770 vs 990
Mxl 990
B is at 2020 bcz sounds good and balanced if you use good quality earphones to listen 👂
Hello brother
Please wich one of those mics is better
Mxl 990
Or
Akg p120
Waiting for your respond🙏
P120? That's is a great ENTRY level unit. Personally. I think the P120 would be better. Unfortunately, right now, I don't have one available to do a test video for you.
@@Qualizar ooh thank you so much bro for your help
You’re amazing person
So I will buy the p120 , because im a voice over by the way..
God bless you🙏❤️
I was thinking about picking up one of these microphones do you know any budget audio interfaces that would work well with these mics
I would recommend that M-audio M track solo or the Behringer UM2.
What's the minor differences
To me? The AT2020 is a little more boxy. The MXL990 has a more airy sound which I do like a lot.
@@Qualizar Ok cool I have both jus haven't used both hahah
Yes the AT2020 is clearer, but I prefer the way MXL 990 sounds when it’s EQ’ed and in a mix.
Used the AT2020 for over 10 years and one thing I know is its thinner high end shine
🎉🎉
I liked microphone A! But microphone B was reasonable!
Your secrets safe with me...
I know this is out of topic but if you want to help I am very grateful so I wanted to buy between mxl 990, at2020 and akg p120 I use it only for home studios. which do you think I should choose? thanks btw.
What type of recording are you planning to do? The P120 is a great all around but the most expensive of the ones in your list.
@@Qualizar mostly vocals and acoustic guitars recording

i have the same problem the only thing different is i need one of the mic to record raps
A) At2020 tiene menos agudos y suenan mucho las P
B) Mxl 990.. suena con más cuerpo y más suave..
cual me recomiendas?
@@ceroseis de bajo presupuesto el At 2020 es una buena opción, yo lo tengo y tiene muy buena calidad! Más arriba un rode nt1a, tiene muy buena respuesta & una piso de ruido que no se escucha casi nada de ruidos molestos.. Y el Mxl 990 compite con el nt1a para mi.. espero haberte ayudado
@@NaythanMusic lo raro que en argentina el at 2020 sale 28mil o 30mil y el mxl 990 sale 18mil.... y el rode nt1a 65mil
Es al revés.
A es el mxl
B es ek at2020
Lo dijo el mismo en el comentario fijado.
A- AT2020
B- MXL 990
In this video it does not answer my question.
You threw back the question to us.
The audio quality of a microphone is not so cut and dry. Each microphone can have different performance for different voice types. So, what I like to do is try and provide a baseline for each microphone so you can make your own educated decision.
@@Qualizar but thats still the issue which was A and which was B?
@@nicoserrano6493 answer is revealed down inside of pinned comment chain.
cant tell the difference…
when you mentioned the plosives i knew it was the 2020 haha. Good mic but horrendous plosives.
I think the MXL900 is microphone A and the AT2020 microphone B
Maybe... 🤔
I just spent my time and attention on this comparison and at the end there's no result! I like your videos, but not this one.
Jorge, the full follow up is in the AT2020 review. This video was an early test of a method of video making, I think you'll be glad to know, I didn't like it, so I didn't make any more like this. 🙃 All future videos are complete.
@@Qualizar thanks for letting me know :)
Been using this mic for a long time. Mic A is the 2020
B had the better sound, all day. I have NOT seen which is which just yet. Going to go see now. Brb. Lol
Oh wow. So, the AT2020 is the one I thought sounded better, before seeing which one was which. Guess imma go with the AudTec one. Fa shooooo thx for doing the comparison
