Samson's Q2U combines the convenience of
digital and analog audio capture into one
dynamic microphone. With XLR and USB
outputs, the Q2U is the first choice for
home/studio and mobile recording, as well as
stage performance. The Q2U is simple to
setup and outshines microphones that cost
more than twice the price. It comes with a
mic clip, desktop tripod stand with
extension piece, windscreen, XLR cable and
USB cable... A package with everything you
need to start recording right out of the
box.
Overall, the Q2U provides significantly
improved audio over a headset or your
computer's internal microphone. The Q2U can
be connected directly to your computer or
mobile device via USB, or plugged directly
into a mixer or audio interface with an XLR
cable. You can also utilize both connections
simultaneously for recording a live event or
performance.
If you're looking to start a new podcast,
the Q2U is the best choice for creating a
production studio on a budget. Whether
you're recording a solo broadcast on your
laptop or multi-person interviews through a
mixing desk, the Q2U delivers high-quality
audio effortlessly with minimal setup. It
even has a 1/8" (3.5mm) headphone output to
monitor the audio you're capturing, as well
as the audio from your computer.
The Q2U is a great mic for home recording.
Its dynamic capsule is great for miking
vocals, instruments and amplifiers. Onboard,
high-quality analog-to-digital converters
provide excellent audio reproduction. The
Q2U's cardioid (unidirectional) polar
pattern picks up sound from in front of the
mic, while rejecting unwanted sound from the
rear and sides. This minimizes the amount of
ambient/room noise that is captured on your
recordings.
Taking your podcast or recording on the
road? The Q2U can be used with iPhones and
iPads via Apple's Lightning to USB Camera
Adapter or Android devices via a Host OTG
cable. In addition, the Q2U's rugged
handheld body is perfect for capturing
interviews at press conferences, live events
or on the street.
For convenient placement in front of your
computer, the Q2U comes with a desktop
tripod stand and extension piece. For use
with this desktop stand or with any standard
microphone stand, a mic clip is also
included. A windscreen is also provided to
minimize wind noise and plosives such as
P-Pops. A 2.25m USB cable and 3m XLR cable
complete the Q2U Recording and Podcasting
Pack, including everything you need to get
started on your next project.
Available as a paid download, the Samson
Sound Deck Noise Cancellation Software
brings noise cancellation technology for
enhanced VoIP communication and computer
recording to your Q2U. Sound Deck uses
Digital Noise Reduction algorithms to
minimize recurring background noise from
loud environments, ensuring only clean,
natural sounding vocals are received by your
family, friends or business associates. To
