3.1 Clear and Crisp Sound with Dual Polar Patterns

This microphone features a 14mm diaphragm condenser and a professional chipset, ensuring high-fidelity audio capture. It supports two distinct polar patterns:

• Кардіоїдний режим: Captures sound primarily from the front, minimizing background noise from the sides and rear. Ideal for single-person recording, streaming, or podcasting in noisy environments.
• Omnidirectional Mode: Picks up sound equally from all directions. Suitable for multi-person discussions, meetings, or capturing ambient sounds.

3.2 Three Sound Modes with AI Noise Reduction

Equipped with AI noise reduction technology, the microphone offers three selectable sound modes to optimize your audio for different scenarios:

• Noise Reduction (NC): Minimizes ambient background noise for clearer voice capture.
• Mid-treble Enhancement (CLEAR): Boosts mid-range and treble frequencies for enhanced vocal clarity.
• Bass Enhancement (BASS): Increases bass frequencies for a richer, fuller sound.

3.3 Кероване RGB-підсвічування

Customize your setup with dynamic RGB lighting. The microphone supports multiple lighting effects:

• Один колір
• Breathing Gradient
• Dynamic Flowing Light

When the microphone is muted, the RGB light turns solid red, providing a clear visual indicator of its status.

5.4 Вибір полярної діаграми спрямованості

The CMTECK microphone automatically switches between cardioid and omnidirectional patterns based on the selected sound mode or internal processing. For optimal performance, ensure your microphone is positioned correctly for your desired pickup pattern:

• For single-person voice capture, speak directly into the front of the microphone (where the CMTECK logo is visible) to utilize the cardioid pattern effectively.
• For group discussions, place the microphone centrally to benefit from the omnidirectional pickup.
