Product Description

MXL Introduces the World's First USB Large Gold Diaphragm Stereo Condenser Mic it's like having a great studio in a mic.

No mixers, preamps or expensive studio gear. No special software or drivers, just plug in to your portable or desktop computer, set your preferences and enjoy instant studio quality recordings.

The mic uses dual gold diaphragm capsules in a XY pattern together with low noise electronics and the latest in enhanced digital conversion techniques for pristine audio quality.

In a demonstration CD a vintage acoustic guitar was recorded with a famous studio mic going thru high quality studio gear to a hard disk recorder and then was compared to the MXL USB.007 recorded direct to a standard computer. The results were nothing short of amazing; the MXL USB.007 sounded like a pristine direct to disc recording while the studio mic sounded nice but lacked punch or detail of the USB mic.

Because of its high quality and ease of use the new mic opens up new possibilities for direct stereo recording with a standard computer such as live performances in the professional, school and home environment. It's also a very exciting tool for podcasts, multimedia, news and broadcast applications using portable computers for remote stereo recording of concerts, lectures, or even documenting outdoor sounds in stereo for film and and sharing with friends and TV backgrounds.

Imagine the fun of recording performances and sound effects from anywhere in the world on a portable computer in full stereo and sharing with friends and associates.

The MXL USB .007 comes with a carry bag, a desktop mic stand, mic stand adapter, a 10-foot USB cable, wind screen, owners manual and an applications guide. The new MXL USB mics usher in a new era of high quality recording never before achieved without a studio. It completely redefines what users can do on their computers opening up a new world for the audio, computer and broadcast industries.

All New MXL Microphones are Designed in their HDTV Design Center in Los Angeles, CA and are wired with Mogami wire. zZounds is an authorized dealer of MXL products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "One of the best USB Condenser Mics"
Sound: I won't talk a lot... It sounds GREAT! HERE's the proof! www.myspace.com/errolljames http://errolljames.skyrock.com/ http://errolljamesfr.skyrock.com/ "La Personne J'aime" and the the latest songs =) Feature: It has Hi, Mid, and Lo recording volume options Ease of Use: Plug, Record and Play Quality: This condenser mic is like any other condenser mic. Don't drop it! Value: If you're a new musician, this is a great mic to start. It has the detail and warmth of your voice. Manufacturer Support: So far, I haven't got problems and hopefully won't. The Wow Factor: Looks great! Looks like a $1000 mic Overall: I'll give this product a 10 because I think this mic is underpriced for it's quality. You can compare it's sound to "Audio Technica AT4040" only it's USB and you don't need the phantom power and all those.

"Probably just me"
Sound: This is a stereo condenser USB Mic. Although it generally reproduces sound pretty accurately. It does have a tendency to sound kind of cheep. The real issue I have is the very high level of self noise Feature: Pretty good. I find that the high low and medium gain switch is not near granular enough. MXL includes a free download for recording software which is really simple, and I suspect this is what I will wind up using. My Cubase SX and Reaper seem to prefer an Asio driver and I know this isn't normal for a USB sound device, but It would have been great not to have to use asio4all to get things working. Also, and this may again be an issue with standard usb audio device setup in windows. The systems keep seeing an output for this device as if it had an audio out, which just isn't the case. I own some pretty middle end equipment including audio interface and Mics. This was purchased because I wanted something really simple to set up and use as a field recorder so to speak with my laptop. I have not done more than just fool around with it at this point, but I think I am going to be disappointed. Clearly this is not positioned to be used like I want to use it. I was hoping this thing would be clear and quiet. It is sort of clear but definitely not quiet. Ease of Use: Actually very easy if you use The free downloadable recording software. This is why I bought it Quality: Cheap plastic body, noisy electronics, Not what I was hoping for. Maybe I had to high an expectation... Value: I am mixed on this. If you want to do a podcast this might be a good choice. For me... Not good Manufacturer Support: Have not called them, but did check out their website to find the documentation while I was waiting for it to come in, and couldn't find a link to the pdf Overall: had I known what I was getting I wouldn't have bought it. I would have just gotten a usb audio interface. I believe I had expectations of this product which were unreasonable. If you want a simple way to get a pretty good recording and don't mind a little background noise, this is probably the way to go. If you were hoping to get the equivalent of a pair of cheap large condenser mics with the convenience of a usb connection... Not so much
