El Segundo (CA) - Studio quality microphones often require big audio inputs not commonly available on a computer. MXL Microphones announced a new condenser microphone that plugs into a computer's USB port. The company claims the MXL USB.006 microphone will bring "big rich studio" sound to both PCs and Macs.
MXL Microphones will also be offering their free "MUR" software that turns your computer into a professional audio recorder. It will simulate a 2-Track analogy recorder and will instantly record sound from the MXL into digital format.
The MXL USB Condenser microphone will be available in September for $170.
