SAMSON SATELLITE Microphone

SAMSON Satellite USB/iOS Streaming Microphone

Samson Satellite is a studio-quality microphone designed for recording High-Definition audio. The device supports 24-bit / 96 kHz recording quality, which significantly exceeds standard CD quality. The microphone features two high-quality 16 mm condenser capsules mounted on an internal anti-vibration suspension that isolates them from body vibrations and desk noise.

This model offers three selectable polar patterns: Cardioid (for streaming, vocals), Omnidirectional (for conferences, multi-person conversations), and Bidirectional/Figure-8 (for face-to-face interviews). The microphone is a "Plug-and-play" device, requiring no driver installation, and is fully compatible with Mac, PC, iPhone, and iPad devices (cables included).

The microphone features a durable aluminum body and patented fold-back legs that allow it to be placed stably on a desk without an additional stand. The integrated 3.5 mm headphone jack provides zero-latency monitoring, and a dedicated switch allows for quick microphone muting.
