Samson Technologies Q2U USB/XLR Dynamic Microphone Recording and Podcasting Pack, Silver
The Samson Q2U USB / XLR Microphone is a dynamic microphone that combines the convenience of digital and analog audio capture into one device. It is the first choice for home/studio and mobile recording, as well as stage performance, offering both XLR and USB outputs. The Q2U is simple to set up and outshines microphones that cost more than twice the price. The package includes a mic clip, desktop tripod stand with extension piece, windscreen, XLR cable, and USB cable, providing everything needed to start recording right out of the box.
The Q2U offers the best of both worlds, with a professional handheld dynamic microphone that features a USB digital output for connecting to a computer and an XLR analog output for connecting to a mixer, audio interface, or portable PA system. The dynamic microphone capsule with a cardioid pickup pattern captures sound from in front of the microphone and less from the side and rear, minimizing ambient sounds and other room noises for podcasting, home recording, or voiceover work. This also reduces possible feedback in live performance settings.
The onboard 1/8" (3.5mm) headphone jack allows for zero-latency monitoring, enabling users to hear themselves without any delay or echo, as well as a mix of their computer audio playback. The Q2U's solid, die-cast construction and heavy gauge mesh grille provide a durable and professional-looking design.
The Q2U is a plug-and-play device, meaning it doesn't require any special drivers to work with a computer. Users can simply connect the microphone to their computer, launch their favorite audio software, and start recording. The Q2U Recording and Podcasting Pack includes everything needed to start recording great-sounding projects, including an extended desktop stand with a mic clip that positions the microphone close to the sound source, a pop-filter for reducing p-pops, and both USB and XLR cables.
In conclusion, the Samson Q2U USB / XLR Microphone is a versatile and high-quality microphone that offers the convenience of digital and analog audio capture in a single device. Its simple setup, professional performance, and comprehensive package make it an excellent choice for home/studio recording, mobile recording, and stage performance.
