Samson Q9U Dynamic XLR/USB Microphone Samson has introduced the Q9U professional broadcast dynamic XLR/USB microphone. Featuring analog and dig- ital connectivity with an XLR output and USB-C connection with 24-bit/96 kHz hi-definition audio resolution, the Q9U is an effective solution for broadcasting, podcasting, and streaming. Designed to be equally suitable in a podcast studio, broadcast booth, or recording rig, the Q9U features a humbucking neodymium capsule that offers enough output to integrate into the user’s current setup without the need for any external gain devices. The analog XLR output allows the microphone to connect to any standard preamp, mixer, or audio interface. An internal air-pneumatic shock mount isolates the capsule from mechanical noise and the mic has a cardioid pickup pattern with off-axis rejection.
