Shure Incorporated today announced that
the X2u XLR-to-USB Signal Adapter is now shipping and is available
by itself or in bundles with either the SM57 or SM58
microphones.
“Over the past several years, more and more musicians,
both professional and amateur, have taken recording into their
own hands at home, on the road, in their bedroom, basement,
tour bus…wherever,” said Chad Wiggins, Shure’s
Category Manager for Wired Microphones. “With this new
product, we’re bringing the legendary heritage of Shure
microphones to every level of performer and home recording
artist as the proliferation of digital recording continues.”
The X2u Adapter is a modular accessory that connects any XLR
microphone to a computer to create better-than-CD quality
recordings. As home recording flourishes, the X2u redefines
what musicians and podcasters can do in their homes and on
the go. The X2u mimics the sleek, beautiful design of Shure’s
iconic SM57 and SM58® microphones and can be used unobtrusively
for live and in-studio recording.
The X2u’s unique features include:
• USB “Plug and Play” Connectivity: Enables
the convenience of digital recording, anywhere your computer
can go (compatible with Windows Vista, XP, 2000, and Mac OS
X 10.1 or above).
• Integrated pre-amp with Microphone Gain Control: Allows
precise control of input signal level to prevent overload
of the analog-to-digital converter.
• Zero Latency Monitoring: Enables real-time playback
and facilitates multi-tracking with no disorientating echo.
• Headphone Jack: For monitoring with standard 1/8”
connectivity.
• Monitor Mix Control: For blending microphone and playback
audio.
• 48-volt Phantom Power: For compatibility with all condenser
microphones.
