MiC Plus

Professional podcasters, singers, and voice-over artists take note: the Apogee MiC Plus is a studio-quality microphone in a USB form factor for your podcasts, one that can deliver a record-ready sound in minutes, even if you don't know much about room treatment or mic technique. The mic sports converters and preamps from Apogee—a company famed for their analog-to-digital technology and is designed to work with Mac, Windows, or iOS devices.

If you're looking for a no-fuss setup as well as a mic that can handle searingly loud sounds without distortion, the MiC Plus will deliver, as it's jam-packed with features to elevate the sound quality. The mic's cardioid polar pattern is the perfect, most natural tool for capturing a clean sound: it minimizes room reflections, and focuses audio capture onto whatever's in front of the capsule. Easy-to-use controls let you adjust the levels or mute with the press of a button. Extra touches, such as a tabletop tripod stand, mic stand adapter clip, a USB cable, and a Lightning cable, make recording even easier right out of the box.
