Versatile and Affordable Mic for Vocals, Guitar, Podcasts, and More

M7 Cardioid Condenser Microphone

The most mic for the least money.

Designed for musicians and performers who need great audio quality on a budget, the M7 is an ideal all-around recording solution for entry-level podcasters, singers, and musicians. The M7 boasts a warm frequency response that flatters the human voice. And thanks to the M7’s cardioid polar pattern, the M7 will brilliantly record the sounds you point it at, while downplaying the sounds you don’t. Last but not least, the M7 can rock hard when asked—its 134 dB of SPL handling lets it wrangle loud instruments like cracking snare drums or electric guitar amps worry-free—something more expensive mics can’t always do.

A hard mount, carrying case, and 10-foot XLR cable round out the M7 package, so you’re good to start producing right out of the box!

Get that radio sound.

The secret to that “radio sound” is simple: the right talent and the right microphone with just the right amount of EQ and compression. Now, that perfect combination of sound is available in Revelator, an elegant, easy-to-use USB microphone… the only thing missing is your voice. Whether you’re looking for a microphone for vlogging, podcasting, or a simple recording solution for voice-overs or your home studio, Revelator is designed to deliver polished, professional-sounding results with ease.

Mix and match.
Let’s face it: conferencing in Zoom calls, recording gameplay, or showcasing the audio in a YouTube video while you’re adding witty commentary is a juggling act. Third-party apps are cumbersome, and figuring out external cabling? Well, that’s even worse. Revelator takes all those headaches away with two stereo loopback streams. Having two stereo streams means you can mix and record the audio from two different applications on your computer along with your voice—all at the same time. Best of all, you can manage the output level in each application independently...or if you need a little more control, open up Universal Control and mix away.

A complete broadcast studio.
Revelator comes with a complete suite of professional software to take your recordings to the next level. Studio One Artist makes it easy to polish your recordings with its lightning-fast drag-and-drop workflow and templates to make configuring your session quick and easy. Add bumpers to your podcasts, take multiple voice-over takes, and much more—all with the power and ease-of-use that has made Studio One one of the most popular recording applications in the world. With Revelator and Studio One Artist, you have everything you need to get professional results whether you’re just getting started or working on that Gold Play Button.

Get three mics in one.
Microphones are designed to pick up sound in a specific pattern. Revelator provides three different patterns in one USB microphone to provide maximum flexibility. Use the Cardioid pattern for voice-overs or performances where only one voice should be captured. This pattern rejects sound coming in from the room to record only your voice. Doing a podcast interview with two people? Change to the Figure 8 pattern and position Revelator between you. Now one side will pick up the interviewer, and the other will pick up the guest. Doing a round table discussion or recording multiple instruments? Switch to the Omnidirectional pattern to pick up sound all the way around the microphone. Whatever your application, Revelator will adapt to fit your needs.

A professional measurement tool.

The PRM1 Precision Reference Microphone is a special type of microphone that provides an accurate reproduction of a room's sound characteristics for use with audio-analysis tools. It employs a ¼”, pre-polarized electret-condenser capsule with an omnidirectional polar pattern, which allows the microphone to measure reflections, as well as direct signals up to 132 dB SPL. The PRM1 has an all-metal chassis and comes with a clip, foam windscreen, and hard case.

What makes the PRM1 different from most mics?

Unlike mics you use for recording and live sound, the PRM1 has a narrow dynamic range, since it is intended to receive test frequencies, such as pink noise, at a fixed level. As a result, it is not recommended for recording or performance—but it’s the right mic for tuning a sound system to perform accurately in a venue. The PRM1 exhibits linear (“flat”) frequency response between 20 Hz and 20 kHz, meaning it captures all frequencies equally within that range. Since it neither boosts nor cuts frequencies, it doesn’t color the sound, making it ideal for measuring what a room or speaker is doing to a sound system’s outgoing signal.

Designed for use with Smaart and other audio analysis tools.

While the PRM1 can be used for a variety of measurement applications, such as MLSSA™, Spectrafoo™, and TEF™, it is especially recommended for use with the Smaart® System Check wizards that are integrated into PreSonus® UC Surface control software for StudioLive® AI and StudioLive RM mixers. With this combination, you can have a complete, powerful, and affordable, audio-analysis and correction system.
