What is a USB Condenser Microphone
----------------------------------
The primary type of microphone used in studios and
radio stations, condenser microphones are the ideal choice for
capturing vocals and acoustic instruments. Unlike a dynamic
microphone, a condenser microphone collects sound from throughout
an environment such as a room, rather than only picking up what’s
happening directly in front of it. It is capable of capturing
much more detail with a wider, flatter frequency response. But
conventional condenser microphones aren’t designed to interface
with a computer – you also have to provide a microphone
preamplifier and an analog-to-USB interface.
The C-1U features a built-in USB interface that derives the
needed power directly from your computer’s USB input and requires
no special drivers. Just plug in and start your
masterpiece!
Sound That Astounds!
--------------------
The incredible C-1U has an exceptionally-flat frequency response
and pristine sonic resolution that ensures content-rich audio
that is as natural sounding as the original source. The cardioid
pickup pattern provides unparalleled sound source separation and
feedback rejection. Thanks to its ultra-low noise,
transformerless FET input circuitry the C-1U can handle extreme
dynamics, all the way up to 136 dB, with ruler-flat frequency
response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz. Which brings us to software...
