A USB microphone inspired by consoles, designed for the personal studio
Inheriting the DNA of the acclaimed Onyx preamps used in studios and live settings, this USB microphone delivers serious capture quality in an all-in-one format. Its 3-capsule architecture and 4 polar patterns extend its use far beyond simple vocal recording, from podcasting to voice-over and instrumental demos.For demanding creators, musicians, streamers, and podcasters
