Technical Breakdown
The iCUE Quiet Mic employs a low-noise design, with a noise level of only 18 dBA. It utilizes a condenser microphone capsule with a 16-bit, 48 kHz resolution to capture audio. The microphone connects via a 3.5mm jack and features a swivel mount for optimal placement.
Sensitivity and Frequency Response
The iCUE Quiet Mic exhibits high sensitivity at -38 dBV/Pa, enhancing its ability to capture detailed audio. Its frequency response ranges from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, providing a wide range of coverage for speech and music. The cardioid pickup pattern focuses on the speaker’s voice while rejecting noise from the sides and rear.
Impedance and Frequency Response
The iCUE Quiet Mic has an impedance of 200 ohms, making it suitable for use with a variety of audio interfaces. The extended frequency response of 30 Hz to 18 kHz captures a wide range of frequencies, including the human voice and musical instruments. The microphone’s omnidirectional pickup pattern offers a natural sound without the proximity effect associated with other microphone types.
