A fully featured mic, perfect for podcasts
Its sensitivity of 25 mV/Pa allows the user to maintain a comfortable distance from the mic without loss of quality. With a maximum sound pressure level of 140 dB, the SC 420 can capture a wide range of volumes, even loud instruments. The SC 425 USB is easy to set up in the studio or on location.
A Podcaster’s Dream
Once you have plugged the microphone into your computer or mobile device (iOS requires a camera connection kit adapter), you’re ready to go live! The SC 425 USB features a 16 bit / 48 kHz audio interface and is completely plug-and-play. It has a built-in headphone amplifier with independent headphone volume controls and a 3.5 mm socket. The amp is powerful enough for all kinds of headphones. Microphone gain allows you to dial in the amplification to achieve that perfect signal-to-noise ratio. And the mute button lets you quickly cut the audio input directly on the mic. This is perfect for real-time situations like streams, video calls and alike.
All in the box
The SC 425 comes supplied with its own tabletop stand, pop shield, windscreen and shock mount. The pop shield eliminates annoying plosives and the shock mount isolates the microphone from any knocks or movements to the surface it is placed on. The stand gives the mic a solid base for keeping the mic in a perfect position. When recording outside, the foam windscreen provides protection from the wind and background noise. With its plug-and-play capability and the built-in headphone output for monitoring, the SC 425 USB is ideal for podcasters or voice-over artists. Simply hook up to your device and hit record!
