Step up to the mic

A simple, removable mic attachment that lets you sprinkle your voice into the mix.

A gooseneck design means quick position adjustment, with easy connection straight into the headphone socket. The fitting also allows you to connect headphones at the same time.

The utility menu lets you set your preferred mic gain and noise gate settings.

The human voice consists of complex, unique harmonics. A 16-band Vocoder design ensures that these harmonics are detected, filtered and replicated accurately.
