January 16 2019, 00:35
Among the cool microphone products recently introduced to the market, Samson introduced the Samson Satellite USB/iOS Broadcast Microphone, offering content creators a portable and effective solution for capturing high-resolution audio on desktop or mobile devices. With 24-bit/96kHz recording capabilities, three selectable pickup patterns, a patented fold-back leg design and zero-latency direct monitoring, the Samson Satellite is a perfect fit for musicians, podcasters and streamers looking for broadcast-quality audio.
 

The Samson Satellite microphone features two premium 16mm condenser capsules that offer three selectable pickup patterns for handling a variety of recording applications with a smooth, flat frequency response. The three selectable pickup patterns include a cardioid setting that is perfect for streaming, vocal performances, single host podcasts or Skype, while the omnidirectional supports conference calls or multi-person interviews around a table. The figure-8 (bidirectional) setting is great for 2-person interviews. An internal shockmount isolates the capsules from the body of the microphone, minimizing handling noise or sounds caused by vibrations and table rumble.

A true plug-and-play solution, Samson Satellite delivers 24-bit/96kHz studio-quality sound by simply connecting the mic to a preferred device via the included USB or Lightning cables. It plugs directly into Mac, PC, iPhone or iPad and is compatible with most computer-based digital audio workstation software. For zero-latency monitoring, it also includes a 1/8” headphone output. A soft touch-mute switch quickly silences the mic without interjecting any clicks or pops into the audio path.
 

The Satellite’s compact footprint features a patented fold-back leg design that allows the mic to be optimally positioned for any vocal or music application and conveniently folded up for transport. A durable aluminum body and heavy-gauge steel mesh grille keep the microphone in top form as users shuttle it from location to location. The mic’s retro design with its sleek black finish and chrome accents makes it a visually striking centerpiece for a desktop or studio set-up.

The Samson Satellite will be available for sale at major CE and MI retailers for only $99.99, starting in May 2019.
