One Mic for Streaming and Podcasting

The MAONO PD100XS is a dynamic microphone that offers both XLR and USB connections for computer-based recording. It captures audio with a unidirectional cardioid pattern that focuses on the voice while rejecting side and rear noise. The microphone delivers 24-bit/48kHz resolution and a 48Hz-16KHz frequency response for detailed sound reproduction.

Ideal for Creators Who Need Dual Connectivity

This microphone suits streamers, podcasters and voice-over artists who want the flexibility to plug directly into a PC or route through a mixer via XLR. It is not for buyers who require wireless freedom or need Xbox compatibility. Users who prefer a condenser microphone for brighter high-frequency detail should look at something else.

Check Your Connection and Mounting Space

Verify that your computer has a free USB port for plug-and-play operation or that your audio interface provides an XLR input and phantom power is not required. The included desk clamp fits surfaces up to 2 inches thick, so confirm your desktop thickness before mounting. Remember that software noise reduction and RGB lighting control function only in USB mode.

Questions about this item

Does the microphone need an audio interface or mixer to work with a PC?

No, the USB connection is plug-and-play with Windows and macOS, so a separate interface is not required.

Can I keep using my existing XLR cable with this microphone?

Yes, the XLR output works with any standard XLR cable, but one is not included in the box.

How do I confirm the 24-bit 48 kHz sampling rate is active after setup?

In USB mode, open MAONO Link software and verify the sample-rate setting shows 24-bit/48 kHz; the headphone monitor jack also lets you hear the live signal.
