SubZero SCZ-500-USB condenser microphone

About this deal

The SubZero SZC-500-USB is a plug-and-play large diaphragm condenser USB microphone with a wide frequency response. It has a built-in sound card, meaning there are no complicated installation processes or drivers required before use -- simply plug it into a USB socket and start recording. It is well suited to podcasts, internet radio, and home vocal recordings. The microphone ships with a matching shockmount cradle that can be placed on a desktop tripod stand for desk setups or on a standard mic stand for more precise positioning. With a broad frequency range, it is able to capture a wide range of dynamics over a full range of pitches. This is a used example, making it a cost-effective entry point for anyone setting up a home studio or starting a podcast without the need for a separate audio interface.
