Profile USB Microphone: Plug-and-play simplicity combined with Sennheiser sound quality |
Sound quality meets ease of use
At the heart of the Profile USB microphone is the award-winning Sennheiser KE 10 condenser microphone capsule. Its cardioid pickup pattern exhibits the typical attenuation effect of sound coming from behind the microphone, ensuring the anchor's voice is clear and prominent.

Profile USB microphones are designed with ease of use in mind—live streamers and podcasters can focus entirely on content creation |
When designing the Profile USB microphone, product managers Benny Franke and Dennis Stegemerten also emphasized the importance of ease of use. “When recording a podcast or live broadcast, users already have too many things to focus on, such as the content itself, and possibly room scenery, camera placement, audience interaction, etc. At this time, the last thing users want to think about is complex audio settings "," Franke explained, "so we try to use technology to remove obstacles on the way to content creation."
Stegemerten adds: “The Profile USB microphone is designed to be simple, efficient and easy to operate. Simply plug it into the USB-C port of your computer or tablet and the device will automatically recognize the microphone and start recording your voice. There is no need for the user to resort to any interface, Software or by opening an additional window, you can easily set up the microphone. Direct touch control on the microphone—that’s what users want.”
在Profile USB 麦克风的正面，是触感柔软且无声的静音按钮、调节麦克风音量的增益控制旋钮、用于平衡录制声音与设备音频的混音控制旋钮，以及调节耳机监听音量的控制旋钮。头戴耳机或入耳式耳机可通过Profile USB麦克风背面的 3.5 毫米插孔进行连接。
Profile USB 麦克风上的 LED 灯环可直观显示工作状态。当增益控制旋钮的 LED 灯环呈绿色时，代表麦克风已准备就绪。若该灯环闪烁黄色或一直显示黄色时，代表麦克风出现削波，用户需要降低麦克风音量。当麦克风静音时，静音按钮和增益控制旋钮的灯环将亮起红色。

麦克风位置调节 灵活简便
“Profile USB 麦克风开箱即用，音质自然温暖、能够突出人声的饱满度及存在感。有趣的是，即使平台会压缩音频，用户依然能听出音质上的差异。”Franke 解释道，“为此，功能强大的麦克风头至关重要，但正确放置麦克风也同样重要。我们建议将麦克风放置在距离嘴巴或声源 15 厘米（6 英寸）以内的位置，以确保声音的清晰度和温暖度。”
