Full description and specifications

Cardioid pickup plus a built-in headphone jack for zero-latency monitoring — the two features that separate a streaming mic from a desk mic.

Quick Specs

  • Cardioid polar pattern — captures the front, rejects the rest
  • 14mm capacitive microphone core
  • Built-in sound card with 3.5mm headphone jack for real-time monitoring
  • High-speed USB, plug and play
  • Dynamic ambient lighting and tilt-adjustable stand

Cardioid is the upgrade that actually matters

Omnidirectional microphones hear your keyboard, your fans and the road outside as clearly as your voice. A cardioid pattern is directional: it captures what is in front of it and rejects most of what is behind and to the sides. Point it at your mouth and your mechanical keyboard drops several decibels in the mix. For anyone streaming or recording in a room that is not acoustically treated — which is everyone at home — that single property does more for your audio than any other spec.

Monitor yourself as you speak

The built-in sound card includes a 3.5mm headphone output that feeds your own voice back with no delay. It sounds like a small thing until you use it: you can hear immediately if you are too close and popping, too far and thin, or clipping when you get excited — and correct it live rather than discovering it in the recording. The 14mm capacitive core delivers detailed voice reproduction, and it works with Windows, macOS, and with iOS or Android via an OTG adapter. The tilt-adjustable stand lets you aim it properly at your mouth rather than your chest.

Questions

Before you buy

Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
