Mackie EleMent Series Chromium USB Condenser Microphone

Multiple polar patterns allow virtually any kind of content creator to do their thing with precision and ease. Use Cardioid to reject off axis noise, minimizing room tone while you speak directly into the mic. If you're recording with one other guest, select the Bidirectional polar pattern; now you can speak into the front, while the guest speaks into the back, and the sides of the mic will reject unwanted room noise. Choose Omnidirectional to pick up audio all around the capsule, which is great for work that features multiple voices. Finally, a Stereo mode is wonderful for ASMR content, or for recording music. A desktop stand and a USB cable are included.

A 2-channel mixer is integrated into the stand, so you can connect a guitar directly and record along with your vocals. You can also connect any stereo signal through the auxiliary 3.5mm jack. This form factor is perfect for the multitalented content creator who wants an easy setup and a crystal clear sound.

The mic offers a headphone output with an independent volume control for a convenient way to monitor straight from the mic itself. You can also blend between the mic signal and the USB audio, which makes it useful for low-latency monitoring.

Onyx preamps are provided to give you crystal-clear quality on vocals and instruments, thanks to its transparent capture and ultralow noise.

The mic records audio at sample rates and resolutions up to 16-bit / 48 kHz, giving you the broadcast standard for media playback.

With an included tripod stand and USB cable, you can get up and running right away. Simply place the mic in the mount, attach the mount to the stand, and run the USB cable from the mic into your computer.

You also get Tracktion's Waveform OEM and the DAW Essentials Collection. This mic comes with the exclusive Mackie Musician Collection featuring 23 fantastic plug-ins.
