ART C1USB

Description

The ART C1USB delivers the performance and tone of a professional studio quality side address FET microphone with the convenience and simplicity of direct to digital USB 2.0 audio interface. C1USB will operate as a standalone unit with any Windows or Mac based recording system. In addition to being an audio to digital input device, the C1USB microphone also has an integrated D/A converter that makes the microphone in effect its own audio interface. The D/A converter provides computer playback to the 1/8th-inch headphone output jack with volume and mix controls integrated into the microphone chassis. The volume control sets the overall listening level in the headphones, while the mix control allows the user to blend the computer audio (playback) and source (microphone) to the headphones mix. This delivers a zero-latency recording solution. Additional controls on the microphone include an input gain control to allow setting of proper input level to your recording software, a -10 dB pad switch to ensure distortion-free reproduction of extremely loud at-source signals, and a low frequency roll off at 100 Hz for improved clarity and presence in your recordings.
