Clear and Detailed Audio Recording

Its sensitivity of -34 dB ±3 dB helps capture subtle details, making it suitable for spoken-word content, vocals, acoustic instruments, podcasts, and voice-over work.

Cardioid Polar Pattern for Focused Sound

The cardioid pickup pattern is designed to capture sound primarily from the front while helping minimize unwanted ambient sound from the sides and rear. This makes the Maono AU-PM320S a practical choice for recording vocals, podcasts, streaming, online content, and other applications where focused voice capture is important.

Professional XLR Connection

The Maono AU-PM320S uses a standard 3-pin XLR output, making it suitable for use with compatible audio interfaces, mixers, microphone preamps, and other professional audio equipment. Unlike USB microphones, the PM320 is designed for an XLR-based recording setup.

48V Phantom Power Required

As an XLR condenser microphone, the AU-PM320S requires 48V DC phantom power to operate. It can be connected to a compatible audio interface, mixer, preamp, or dedicated phantom-power source.

High SPL Handling

With a maximum input sound level of 140 dB SPL at 1 kHz and 1% THD, the PM320 can handle relatively loud sound sources while maintaining reliable recording performance. This makes it suitable for a range of applications, from spoken-word recording and vocals to music production.

Note: The PM320 requires a compatible 48V phantom-power source or audio interface and cannot be connected directly to a computer as a USB microphone.
