Built around a pair of premium 16mm condenser capsules that capture vocal warmth and clarity with a smooth, accurate frequency response, Samson's Satellite is a USB/iOS Broadcast Microphone ideal for a variety of uses. This broadcast-quality USB/iOS microphone is designed for capturing high-definition audio on your computer, iPhone or iPad. As an essential piece to any streamer, podcaster or content creator's recording setup, Satellite offers plug-and-play operation, 24-bit/96kHz audio, three selectable pickups patterns and a patented fold-back leg design in a highly-portable package.Samson Satellite offers three selectable pickup patterns for handling a variety of recording applications - The cardioid setting is perfect for streaming, vocal performances, single host podcasts or Skype. For conference calls or multi-person interviews where many people are around a table, select the omnidirectional setting. The figure-8 (bidirectional) setting is great for 2-person interviews.Additional attractive highlights include an internal shockmount that isolates the capsules from the body of the microphone, minimizing handling noise or sounds caused by vibrations and table rumble, along with zero-latency direct monitoring from its 1/8" (3.5mm) headphone jack. Satellite produces no delay between the audio you're recording and the audio you're hearing and its Monitor switch allows you to turn off direct monitoring while still hearing the audio back from your computer.Samson SATELLITE-SAMSON Applications:RecordingAudio for VideoMultimediaGamingVOIPPodcastingStreamingSamson SATELLITE-SAMSON Includes:Lightning to USB Micro cable aUSB to USB Micro cableSamson SATELLITE-SAMSON Features:USB/iOS broadcast microphoneDual 16mm condenser capsulesSelectable cardioid (unidirectional), bidirectional and omnidirectional pickup patternPlugs directly into Mac, PC, iPhone or iPadIdeal for streaming, podcasting, gaming, VoIP, voiceover work and recording music24-bit/96 kHz resolutionSmooth, flat frequency response of 20 Hz–20 kHz1/8" stereo headphone output with level control for zero-latency monitoringSamson SATELLITE-SAMSON Specifications:Element Type: Electret condenserDiaphragm Width/Thickness: 16 mm/3 micronsPolar Pattern: Cardioid (unidirectional), bidirectional, omnidirectionalFrequency Response: 20 Hz–20 kHzSensitivity (all polar patterns) -3 dB FS @ 80 dB SPL (at maximum gain)Max.
