Retro-Style Design

The ergonomic housing of the Saramonic MTV550 microphone combines modernity with an immortal retro style. The unique design will make the device quickly become a decoration of your room, office, or home studio. Thanks to the articulated tripod design, you will not only ensure the perfect angle of microphone positioning during recording, but also the compact size after folding, which will facilitate convenient transport in your bag or backpack. Thanks to the pop filter, you’ll minimize the risk of distortion and crackling, which can cause explosive sounds (that’s all the p’s, b’s, t’s that cause uncontrolled air ejections) - both when speaking and singing.

The Saramonic MTV550 condenser microphone for podcasting features a special switch that allows you to change the operating mode. Options include piano, vocal, speech, acoustic music, and band.
