MXL USB Microphone
MXL has come out with a USB powered condenser microphone to compete with the likes of the Blue Snowball or the Samson USB microphones. The microphone is called the MXL .008 USB Powered Condenser Microphone. Here are the features:
- USB (Universal Serial Bus) mic connects directly to a computer without the need for external mic preamp
- 16-bit Delta Sigma A/D converter with a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz
- Large gold diaphragm, pressure-gradient condenser capsule
- 3-position, switchable attenuation pad with settings for Hi (0 dB), Medium (-5 dB), and Lo (-10 dB)
- 20 Hz 20kHz frequency response
- Red LED behind the protective grill informs the user that the microphone is active and correctly oriented toward the user
- Heavy-duty wire mesh grill with an integrated pop filter
I know I especially like the Red LED that shows you which way to talk into the microphone. When I first got my MXL 990, I mistakenly orientated the wrong way and couldn’t imagine why I was getting so much nose from behind the microphone. Maybe I shouldn’t own up to that. Check out this new MXL microphone.
Peace,
Russ
