Level Up Your Streaming and Production Audio Quality

From game streaming and podcasting to audio production and web conferencing, nothing beats the crisp sound and supreme convenience of a mic like the MXL Tempo USB condenser. No additional audio interface is required — just connect the MXL Tempo straight into your Mac or PC, set your levels, and you've got premium vocal and instrument pickup to enhance your production value and increase your online intelligibility. The MXL Tempo sports a metal body and grille for dependable performance and sleek on-camera looks. Not only that, but a rich 40Hz–18kHz frequency response with 16-bit/48kHz Delta Sigma conversion ensures your source material won't get lost in translation. A low-noise FET preamp and balanced transformerless output reduce noise on the way in. The MXL Tempo also comes loaded with convenient features, such as a high-fidelity headphone output for onboard monitoring and an LED to indicate when the mic is on. Even better, the MXL Tempo includes all you need to get started: a USB cable, a stand mount (for traditional stand adaptation), and a mini desktop tripod stand for web use. If you're searching for a simple option to massively up your audio game, sound engineers at Sweetwater recommend the MXL Tempo USB condenser microphone.

MXL Microphones

Since 1998, MXL Microphones — a division of Marshall Electronics — has designed affordable, high-quality microphones for the home and project studio. In its two-decade-plus run, MXL has proven a consistent innovator in the studio, broadcast, streaming, and worship microphone markets. In fact, ask a handful of experienced Sweetwater studio engineers, and you'll discover that many of us cut our teeth recording on MXL condensers mics. Microphones like the MXL Tempo large-diaphragm condenser are able to deliver professional results without the top-shelf price tag. And since many MXL microphones come internally wired with premium Mogami cable (another Marshall Electronics brand), you can be sure every MXL you buy from Sweetwater is rated to deliver quiet, consistent performance you can trust. In fact, we stand behind it with our exclusive extended 2-year warranty.
