awesome di erence: it has a built-

in USB interface so you can be ready

to record faster than ever – and with

minimal preparation and equipment.

We’ve even included a USB cable and

swivel mic stand mount, so just plug it

into your computer and start recording!

What is a USB
Condenser Microphone

The primary type of microphone used
in recording studios and radio stations,
condenser microphones are the ideal choice
for capturing vocals and acoustic instruments.
Unlike a dynamic microphone, a condenser
microphone collects sound from throughout
an environment such as a room, rather than
only picking up what’s happening directly in
front of it. It is capable of capturing much more
detail with a wider,  atter frequency response.
But conventional condenser microphones
aren’t designed to interface with a computer
– you also have to provide a microphone

preampli er and an analog-to-USB interface.
The C-1U features a built-in USB interface that derives the needed power directly from
your computer’s USB input and requires no special drivers. Just plug in and start recording
your masterpiece!

Sound That Astounds!

The incredible C-1U has an exceptionally- at frequency response and pristine sonic resolution that
ensures content-rich audio that is as natural sounding as the original source. The cardioid pickup
pattern provides unparalleled sound source separation and feedback rejection. Thanks to its ultra­low noise, transformerless FET input circuitry the C-1U can handle extreme dynamics, all the way
up to 136 dB, with ruler- at frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz. Which brings us to software...

Free Would Be Nice!

Because you’ll want to take full advantage of the C-1U’s recording and podcasting potential, we’ve
included all the software you’ll need for audio recording, editing and even podcasting – all free of
charge and downloadable from behringer.com. You’ll be ready to go live on your PC or Mac right
out of the box! We’ve also provided a free download of more than 150 virtual instruments and FX
plug-ins – turning your computer into a powerful home-based or mobile recording studio from
input to output.
