What These Specs Mean
Sample Rate: 96kHz
On USB mics, the internal sample rate affects recording quality.
Bit Depth: 24-bit
On USB mics, higher bit depth gives more dynamic range.
Frequency Response: 20Hz-20kHz
Wider frequency response captures more of the audible spectrum, from deep bass to airy highs.
Polar Pattern: Cardioid
Polar pattern determines where the mic picks up sound from. Cardioid rejects background noise; omnidirectional captures the full room.
