The Wave U1 USB Condenser Microphone from simorr is a cardioid condenser mic that combines professional-quality sound capture with the ease of plug-and-play USB connectivity on both Mac, Windows, and Linux computers. The U1 allows you to record studio-quality audio in higher-than-CD quality, 24-bit/48 kHz resolution without the need for an external mic preamp, audio interface, and headphone amplifier. Its cardioid polar pattern offers focused and accurate audio capture for a wide variety of applications including gaming, chatting, music recording, live streaming, and video conferencing.
Versatile Plug-and-Play Microphone
The U1 USB provides a high level of versatility, excelling at tracking vocals, voice-overs, and instruments. Its integrated preamp provides ample gain that can be adjusted via the mic's continuous gain controller, while a mute button allows you to instantly cut the signal. The USB Type-C connector means the mic can work with a variety of phones, computers, tablets, and game consoles.
Triple-Protection Grill Design
A 12-mesh iron outer grill and a 30-mesh inner grill are combined with a sponge windscreen to stop plosives and wind noise for more intelligible recordings with less interference.
Noise-Reduction Filter
The FIR/IIR filter reduces low-end noise by 68 dB helping to provide clear sound with a 98 dB dynamic range and reducing unwanted electrical noise, ambient sound, and interference.
Heavy-Duty Tilting Stand
Sitting on a sturdy support, the mic can be angled to find the perfect sweet spot for your voice. It can also be detached and mounted on a boom arm or mic stand that uses a standard 5/8-inch thread.
Headphone Monitoring
The 3.5mm headphone output provides monitoring for real-time playback and multitracking.
Compact Build
Made for minimalist and smaller setups, the U1 barely takes up any desk space and is discreet on-camera, putting more focus on you. The mic is easy to bring along, if you need to take your streaming elsewhere.
Shock Resistant
The built-in shockmount dampens vibrations for clearer recordings
Includes Cable, Stand, and Support Rod
The Wave U1 includes a 7-core, 3-in-one professional shielded cable with a PVC and braided nylon outer layer along with aluminum foil and a braided shielding label. The entire cable is reinforced and designed to resist interference. The included heavy-duty base offers 360° rotation and an anti-slip shim.
