Highlights
Solid Sound
The Meteor Mic produces rich audio recordings for any application, featuring a large 1" (25 mm) proprietary studio-grade capsule with a wide, smooth frequency response that captures every nuance of your vocal or instrument performance. Its cardioid pickup pattern captures sounds directly in front of the microphone, minimizing off-axis noise from entering your project.
Making the Magic
With no drivers required, you can start recording right out of the box on any computer. And Meteor Mic is compatible with most computer digital audio workstations, video conferencing, and VOIP software. And 16-bit, 44.1/48 kHz resolution gives you professional audio results no matter what you're recording.
Record in Style
The Meteor Mic is designed to help you sound your best wherever your projects take you. The folding leg design allows the microphone to be easily transported anywhere and adjusted to the optimal position for any recording application. A built-in mic stand adapter on the bottom of the microphone allows it to be mounted on a boom arm or table stand.
Take Control
A zero-latency headphone output with level control and a microphone mute switch give you complete control during your projects. A USB cable and carrying case are included so you can take the Meteor Mic with you on the road.
Break On Through.
Meteor Mic is the portable USB microphone created to deliver exceptional audio to any computer-based recording or communication application. In addition to easily integrating into your digital audio workstation, Meteor Mic is ideal for podcasting, video blogging, face-to-face communication apps, and VoIP programs.
