This ensures your audience enjoys top-notch audio, making your content more engaging and professional.

maono PM320S Condenser Microphone Pack

High-definition audio quality

The PM320S offers pristine audio quality and accurately captures the sound of your voice. An expertly custom-engineered low-mass diaphragm provides an extended frequency response and superior transient response. This allows you to reproduce your vocal performance with extreme detail, ensuring every nuance can be heard loud and clear. Whether you're recording powerful emotive driving vocal performances or conversation-level podcasts and streams, the high SPL handling and exceptional signal-to-noise ratio means there is enough headroom to capture any performance without distracting distortion or clipping.

The cardioid polar pattern of the PM320S focuses the recording and rejects any noise or interference from around the microphone. This can be extremely useful when recording at conversation level during streams, podcasts or interviews as you can eliminate any extraneous environmental noises such as loud computer fans or mechanical keyboard noises to keep your viewers and listeners engaged.

Provided with the Maono PM320S Condenser Microphone Pack is a shock mount for the boom arm. Using a shock mount allows you to keep the microphone suspended and eliminate any noise from vibrations in your recording environment that will interfere with your audio. This keeps your recordings clean and adds professionalism to your content.

Practical and robust design

To cope with the demands of modern recording artists, the PM320S uses high-quality materials to protect the microphone from being damaged when in use. A zinc alloy frame is used for the PM320S microphone case to ensure strength and durability for a long-lasting lifetime as well as an iron mesh netting to ensure it does not wear over time.

The adjustable desktop boom arm is made from aluminium alloy to maintain strength and rigidity when the microphone is placed on to ensure there is no drooping. Not only that, but the boom arm is adjustable by 180 degrees to meet your needs and demands to get the perfect recording position no matter the situation or recording environment.

An all-metal shock mount is used to maintain the stability of your microphone. This ensures that there are no environmental noises or vibrations that may interfere with your recording to keep your audio clean and precise. Attention to detail is paid even to the XLR socket. Under countless stress tests, the Maono PM320S performs excellently with the XLR remaining in the socket even extreme duress.
