Advertisement MXL Microphones is pleased to announce the introduction of the MXL USB Mic Mate™, a compact low-noise analog preamp that converts 48 volt phantom powered studio mics and analog line level signals to USB for hi quality recording on any PC or Mac. Its metal construction and pocket size makes it a perfect travel companion for a portable computer allowing broadcasters, audio engineers and recording enthusiasts to capture great sounds wherever they go with their own mics. The new MXL USB Mic Mate makes it easy to use without any mixers, preamps, expensive studio gear or special software or drivers. Just plug in your favorite mic to the converter and the other end to the USB port on your portable or desktop computer to set your preferences and enjoy studio quality recordings. The MXL USB Mic Mate uses the best of both analog and digital technology to bring studio quality sound to any computer. Its input features a fully balanced low noise, low distortion preamp, gain plus a 3?position analog gain control; a special circuit that converts the 5 volts from the USB port to a regulated 48 volts required by professional condenser microphones. The digital section features a 16 bit Delta Sigma A/D converter with a sampling of 44.1 and 48.1. The input side has a 3 pin XLR female and on the output a USB connector.
