Allrounder for Voice and Music Recording, Gaming or YouTube!
The AKG Ara USB microphone guarantees the best possible sound for voices in online videos, podcasts, or music recordings. The Ara is a condenser microphone that connects easily via USB and delivers high-resolution recordings in professional quality up to 24 Bit and 96 kHz.
The sophisticated arrangement of the two microphone capsules allows for various applications. The "Front" polar pattern (cardioid) is ideal when recording a single speaker or singer alone. With the "Front + Back" polar pattern (omnidirectional), the AKG Ara captures multiple voices simultaneously or musicians spread out in a room.
On computers, the microphone is ready to use immediately, as it works with current operating systems without additional drivers. For connection to Android devices, only an OTG adapter is needed, or for iOS devices, the Camera Kit. The AKG Ara then functions like an external sound card on the computer or smartphone. A headphone can also be connected to the microphone, allowing you to monitor your own voice or playbacks.
The microphone can be easily used with the included sturdy stand or standard microphone stands. An LED indicates when mute is activated. Thanks to simple operation, even inexperienced users can get started right away. Whether for podcast interviews, eSports teams, singer/songwriters, or YouTube videos: the AKG Ara impresses with crystal-clear sound quality and excellent speech intelligibility.
Plug & Play with USB – and the recording starts!
