Bring your home recording or podcasting dreams to life with the high-quality C-1U Cardioid Studio Condenser USB Microphone. This professional-grade microphone mirrors the acclaimed C-1 mic, but with an added advantage: a built-in USB interface for quick, hassle-free recording.
This versatile condenser microphone is a favorite in recording studios and radio stations, thanks to its ability to capture vocals and acoustic instruments with exceptional clarity. Unlike dynamic microphones, the C-1U collects sound from an entire environment, not just what's directly in front of it, capturing a wider, flatter frequency response and more detail.
The C-1U stands out with its built-in USB interface, eliminating the need for a separate microphone preamplifier and analog-to-USB interface. It draws power directly from your computer's USB input and requires no special drivers. Just plug in the included USB cable, mount it on the provided swivel mic stand, and you're ready to record your audio masterpiece.
Experience sound that astounds with the C-1U's exceptionally flat frequency response and pristine sonic resolution, delivering content-rich audio that mirrors the original source. The cardioid pickup pattern offers unparalleled sound source separation and feedback rejection. With its ultralow noise, transformerless FET input circuitry, the C-1U can handle extreme dynamics, up to 136 dB, with a ruler-flat frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz.
To help you maximize the C-1U's recording and podcasting potential, we've included free, downloadable software for audio recording, editing, and podcasting from behringer.com. You'll also get a free download of over 150 virtual instruments and FX plug-ins, transforming your computer into a powerful home-based or mobile recording studio.
The C-1U is not just reliable but also durable, designed to withstand the rigors of late-night recording marathons. Its tough, die-cast metal body can be powered directly from your laptop's USB port, making it the perfect companion for recording on the go. Choose the C-1U Cardioid Studio Condenser USB Microphone for all your recording needs.
