XLR port support: The studio microphone can be connected to professional recording devices such as sound cards and mixers via an XLR port. This improves audio flexibility when recording vocals and allows you to explore different types of music and vocals. The symmetrical transmission effectively isolates the original sound from ambient noise, resulting in higher interference resistance and sound fidelity.
Wide variety of applications: The XLR/USB microphone meets the requirements of entertainment, streaming, podcasting and broadcasting recording. It features built-in 3/8" and 5/8" metal threads that are compatible with most swivel arms without the need for an external adapter. The foam wind shield reduces plosive sounds while talking and effectively isolates the buzzing of electrical devices nearby to ensure clearer audio quality.
USB port and multi-purpose buttons: The podcast microphone can be connected directly to a computer (Mac/Windows) via a USB cable. The PC microphone has an LED mute button that allows you to mute quickly. The gain control allows real-time adjustment of the volume without the need for computer control. The USB microphone also has a headphone jack for real-time monitoring. (Only suitable for USB connection).
