    Product Description

    Product Description

    Record studio-quality audio directly to your computer via USB with the CAD U37 side-address condenser microphone-a great choice for both vocal and instruments as well as for creating podcasts and voiceovers for videos. Compatible with both Windows and Mac OS operating systems, you can simply plug the U37 into your PC and start recording. The U37 has two switches on the front. The first switch allows you to decrease the sensitivity of the microphone so the sound quality is clear for extremely loud sounds. For example, the switch should be in the "-10" position for loud voices, percussion and other high sound pressure level devices. The "0" position should be used for normal voices and string instruments. The second switch on the U37 is designed to reduce pickup of deep-bass sounds. The switch should be in the "Normal Bass" mode in most cases. However, if you want to remove wind noise, ventilation noise, or decrease the low frequencies in a recording, the switch should be in the "Bass Reduction" position.

    The stand is crap
    4 Stars
    The stand is crap
    I haven't had a chance to test the mic yet, but I trust the good reviews here. Regarding the stand, it is badly designed and pretty unstable. It's designed to fold up flat for easy transportation, which it does well and becomes rather compact, and although the plastic is pretty sturdy feeling it is not very stable. A light push would knock over the mic.The stem is metal and 3/8 inch thread, so it's too skinny for my pop filter to get a good grip on it. the filter's clamp won't even tighten enough to hold on to the stem. If you plan to use the mount on another stand it will need to be 3/8 also. The mount looks pretty solid itself. It would allow you to swing the mic back so it is inverted an would reduce the height of the whole setup for storage purposes, but I wouldn't use this mount on a floor based mic stand or anything that is not on a rigid base and vertical post.Also note that this stand will give you no isolation from vibrations from the surface it is sitting on.Buy it for the mic and get a better stand. I intend to order these:On Stage DS7200B Adjustable Desk Microphone Stand, Blackand On Stage MY410 Studio Microphone Shock Mount, ChampagneIt looks like the shock mount will hold this size mic with a little padding inserted, and the mount looks like it will fit on the stand.Minus one star because of the stand, which alone I would give one star. The mic probably deserves five stars.UPDATE: I received the above mentioned stand and shock mount and they do indeed fit each other and are made by the same company. The mic fits in the mount very nicely without any padding, and my pop filter clamps to the stand stem just right. Very nice looking set up, and very stable.
