Zoom ZDM-1 Podcast Mic Pack

Features

Overview: The Zoom ZDM-1 Podcast Mic Pack provides all the essential tools you need to go along with your computer and interface (both sold separately), for producing professional-quality podcasts. The Zoom Podcast Mic Pack includes a ZDM-1 dynamic microphone, ZHP-1 closed-back headphones, a tripod mic stand, and the necessary cabling to get started.

ZDM-1 Microphone: The ZDM-1 is a large-diaphragm dynamic microphone that's designed to capture smooth, broadcast-quality sound. It features a supercardioid polar pattern, allowing it to capture sounds both in front and in back of the mic, and includes a large foam windscreen to help reduce plosives and provide clear recordings. The ZDM-1 has a frequency response of 50Hz-18kHz and can handle up to 135dB of sound pressure level. A 6.5' XLR cable is provided for connecting the microphone.

ZHP-1 Headphones: The Zoom ZHP-1 headphones feature soft leatherette earpads along with rubberized head-band pads, providing a comfortable fit, even after hours of use. Their closed-back design helps reduce background noise, while the 40mm neodymium drivers provide clear legible sound. The ZHP-1 headphones feature a wide frequency response of 10Hz-20kHz, and can handle up to 200mW of input power. A male 3.5mm TRS jack on the Left ear cup provides the connection to the included 10' headphone cable. A 3.5mm-1/4" adapter is also provided if needed.

Tripod Stand: The Zoom ZHP-1 Podcast Mic Pack includes tripod stand for placing the microphone on a table or console. The adjustable stand can place the microphone from 4-1/4" to 5-1/2" from the mounting surface. The provided microphone stand-adapter features a threaded base for tightening the microphone body to, and includes a 5/8"-3/8" thread adapter for use with other optional stands.

Software: The ZHP-1 includes a free download license for Steinberg's WaveLab Cast software. WaveLab Cast lets you finalize your project with a wide range of comprehensive editing, mixing, and refinement tools. WaveLab Cast supports audio quality up to 96kHz and includes a high-end re-sampler. RestoreRig lets you remove noise and unwanted sounds, and new files can also be assembled using the snap and crossfade options. Edited sound files can then be exported in any popular audio format. WaveLab Cast connects directly with podcast directories, such as Spreaker or Podbean, letting you quickly create and publish RSS feeds.
