-- BCD-1 Live Broadcast Dynamic Microphone --
The MXL BCD-1 is an end address dynamic microphone with warm, rich tones designed to make vocals stand out in any performance or recording. The built-in swivel mount allows for perfect positioning when combined with the optional MXL BCD-Stand.

-- CV502-U3 Miniature POV Camera --

The Perfect UCC Camera
The Marshall CV502-U3 is a USB-powered, high-definition POV camera with an ultra-wide 126 deg. Angle-of-View lens, that offers simple plug-and-play connectivity with any Mac, PC or Linux system. It delivers sharp, vivid color images in resolutions up to 1920x1080p at up to 60 frames per second and is designed to be used for huddle rooms, streaming studios, collaboration spaces and any other professional corporate communications setting.

Using a high-performance 2.1 Megapixel 1/3" sensor, Marshall's CV502-U3 delivers stunning picture clarity with accurate colors. The CV502-U3 has the option of interchangeable lenses to fit any custom designed space or studio. Using industry standard USB Video Control (UVC 1.5) protocols, the CV502-U3 is able to self-adapt to the computer capabilities for optimal resolution and framerates. Additionally, common soft codecs or camera control software can be used to adjust for applications that require specific camera settings. The CV502-U3 comes with an adjustable, heavy-duty CVM-5 monitor mount clip and locking USB 3.0 Cable.

Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) Rivaled Only by the Human Eye
With built-in adaptive WDR, the CV502-U3 will automatically adjust to ambient lighting conditions within a setting. Much like the human eye, the CV502-U3 will compensate lights and darks to capture clear, sharp and vivid color video within a wide range of lighting conditions.

Say Goodbye to Grainy Low Light Video
With an incredibly low color Lux rating of 0.2, the CV502-U3 will produce accurate, sharp color images even under low-light conditions in poorly lit conference rooms, cubicle bays or huddle rooms.

Set it and Forget it!
The thumbscrew-locking USB 3.0 cable makes sure the connection is always secure. There'll be no dropped video feeds from any accidental unplugging and no tampering of cameras affixed at permanent installations. The heavy-duty monitor clip attaches easily to the top of monitors or it can be used as a mount to get any viewing angle desired.

Super Wide Stock 126 deg. Angle-Of-View Lens
The CV502-U3 comes stock with a super-wide 126 deg. (2.3mm) Angle-of-View lens, providing the best coverage of any USB camera on the market without any significant distortion. Additional lens options with different angles-of-view and focal lengths are also available so you can customize the CV502-U3 to fit any size room. You'll never have to worry about being able to get everyone in the frame again.

Plug-and-Play with UVC 1.5 Control
The UVC 1.5 control automatically syncs the CV502-U3 to optimal settings for any monitor or computer screen being used, adjusting for screen resolution, frame rate, brightness, color and bandwidth settings, so the picture is perfect every time.

-- Mic Mate Pro - XLR to USB Adapter --
This incredibly versatile and compact universal interface facilitates the connection of microphones directly to your computer via USB, effectively converting your existing microphone into a USB microphone. Instantly start recording without any special driver installations - simply plug-and-play! To further simplify use, the MXL Mic Mate Pro handles microphone gain and headphone volume adjustments with low profile rotary knobs, while the built-in headphone jack allows for zero-latency direct monitoring. Studio-quality computer recording is now within the reach of every aspiring musician and recording enthusiast.
