Included Accessories The included desk stand provides a stable base to securely set up the microphone on any flat surface while the custom pop filter provides added protection against plosives. XLR or USB? XLR microphones are analog devices that require an XLR cable (1) that feeds the analog signal to an audio interface (2). The interface then converts the analog signal to digital and feeds the audio to your PC (3) for recording. Within USB microphones, all of the analog to digital conversion takes place within the microphone – no audio interface required. The digital signal is then fed via USB connection (1) directly into your PC (2). Condenser or Dynamic? Condenser Mic Characteristics Extremely sensitive – picks up the subtlest sounds in any environment Very articulate audio with a detailed high-frequency capture Requires external power to operate (phantom or battery for analog, USB for digital) Dynamic Mic Characteristics Minimizes room noise Smooth audio capture No external power requirements Join the A-T Creator Community Do you use Audio-Technica products to create amazing content?
