Record audio for podcasts, stream audio online, or sound good over VoIP with the Samson Meteorite, a relatively compact and stylish USB microphone that plugs directly into your computer for use right out of the box. When combined with a separately available adapter, it can even work with iOS devices.

You'll find the mic delivers a solid audio quality while minimizing effects of the room, thanks to its cardioid polar pattern. The USB cable is integrated, so no need to purchase a separate one, which you might very well lose anyway. Its integrated magnetic cradle base, combined with the USB functionality, make the mic as portable as it is useful.

The 14mm capsule sounds good on vocals, whether podcasting, streaming, or communicating over VoIP

The mic uses a cardioid polar pattern to naturally mitigate room tone, giving you a clear and focused sound. Built-in 48 kHz / 16-bit conversion gives you broadcast-quality digital audio.

As the mic has an integrated USB cable, you don't have to worry about losing any extra USB cable. A magnetic, detachable base can serve as a tabletop mic stand.

The mic plugs directly into any computer with a USB input, no drivers required. It's compatible with most computer-based digital audio software as well as Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, voice recognition applications, and much more.
