Choose it if…
- You want a direct USB computer input without a separate audio interface.
- You want to hear your own voice through headphones while you play.
- You will use the supplied physical configuration or verify the mount before adding an arm.
Before choosing this model
- Use the direct USB route and place the microphone close enough for a clear voice before treating room reflections with processing. Choose another microphone if an XLR mixer connection is required.
- A USB connector alone does not make this model a console microphone. Check the exact platform below.
- Check the stand, thread and desk position before ordering a mount. Include attached shock mounts and adapters in the total weight.
- Check the included cable against the available data port. Add only the adapters or headphones your chosen path needs.
