M-Audio Uber Mic USB Microphone with Headphone Output

Description

The M-Audio Uber Mic is a three-capsule, large-diaphragm desktop USB microphone designed to capture vocals and instruments for music, podcast, broadcasting, conferencing, and gaming applications. It offers a choice of four switchable polar patterns including cardioid, omnidirectional, figure-8, and stereo, which enable you to choose the perfect setting for just about any recording scenario.

The Uber Mic features A/D convertors that capture the nuances and subtleties of your performance in 16-bit/48 kHz digital audio and with a 30 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response. The microphone incorporates monitoring features such as a built-in headphone jack with volume control. A USB/direct mixing control enables zero-latency recording and monitoring, and blends the microphone's input with the pre-recorded audio from your DAW. The high-output internal headphone amplifier delivers clear sound with enough level to create ample volume.

The included microphone stand extender with 5/8"-27 thread allows you to mount the mic on a microphone stand for precise placement in front of your sound source. The Uber Mic is compatible with Mac OS X, Windows, and iOS using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit (available separately). The unit ships with a mini-USB cable.

• Omnidirectional—equal output/sensitivity at all angles captures your sound sources from all directions, perfect for adding some ambience to your recordings or recording a group of sound sources
• Figure 8—equal output/sensitivity on two sides of the microphone, ideal for capturing two independent sound sources simultaneously
• Stereo—picks up from the left and right side of the microphone, producing a true stereo image
