Features

DUAL POLAR PATTERNS
Designed with dual 14 mm condenser capsules and two polar (pickup) patterns, Cardioid and Omni-directional, Creative Live! Mic M3 is optimized for different setups. Switch easily between the patterns directly on the microphone and start immediately on your PC or Mac via the USB-A cable—no extra installations needed.

DEDICATED MUTE BUTTON
Mute when you need to—like when an uncontrollable sneeze happens mid-stream. The mute / unmute button and LED indicator lets you stay aware and control your microphone's status instinctively.

MONITOR INREAL-TIME
Save yourself time (and frustrations) from multiple retakes and post-production edits with real-time mic-monitoring to hear and adjust how you sound, or listen in on any unwanted noise that may be affecting your recording.

STUDIO-QUALITY RECORDING
Let your content take center stage with high-resolution, studio-quality recording of up to 24-bit / 96 kHz! Sound clear to your audience for all types of content that you're working on.

REDUCE YOUR POPS
Reduce plosive effects—the abrupt and sudden pops of sound that happens especially when you are pronouncing your B, P, T, and D's—with the detachable magnetic pop filter. Simply place or lift the filter from the magnetic grooves as needed.

90° ADJUSTABLE ANGLE
Change the angle of the microphone to exactly where it needs to be with its detachable and adjustable table stand that allows for up to 90° tilt angle with 360° rotation.

1/4-20 UNC COMPATIBLE
Mount and attach it to any common standard tripod setup that supports 1/4-20 UNC thread. Its slim and compact form factor also makes it a great fit in any type of setup.
