Features

Overview: The Mackie Creator Bundle is the ideal setup for content creators, podcasters, and for streaming. The Bundle includes a Mackie EM-USB condenser microphone with USB connection, a pair of MC-100 headphones, a pair of CR3-X powered monitors, Waveform OEM DAW software, and all the accessories needed to get started recording music or creating online audio content.

EM-USB Microphone

Construction: The Mackie EM-USB is a condenser type microphone with a cardioid pattern that helps reject peripheral noise. The mic features a durable metal housing and metal-mesh capsule screen, providing Mackie "Built-Like-A-Tank" reliability and performance.

Connections: The base of the EM-USB microphone includes a USB-C port, for connecting to a computer or laptop, and a 3.5mm stereo jack for plugging in the included headphones.

• System Compatibility:
  • PC: Windows 7, 8.1, 10 / USB 2.0/3.0
  • MAC: OS 10.10 or higher / USB 2.0/3.0

Controls: The EM-USB includes a built-in Mute button. When pressed, it will mute the microphone, but still allow audio from your computer to pass through the headphone output. Two rotary controls, for Gain and Headphone Volume, let you adjust the input signal level and the volume for the connected headphones.

Stand: A table-top tripod and mic stand adapter are provided for securing the microphone during use. The tripod is adjustable, allowing the mic to be varied in height from 6" to 7-1/2" from the mounting surface. The tripod and included stand adapter both feature 5/8" threading, with the stand adapter including a locking tilt adjustment for the microphone.

CR3-X Monitors

Two-Way Speaker Design: Each Mackie CR3-X multimedia monitor speaker features a two-way driver design with one 0.75" ferrofluid-cooled, silk-dome tweeter and one 3" polypropylene-coated woofer with rubber sound. This combination of premium drivers provides a rich and natural studio-quality sound.

Built-in Amplifier: One CR3-X speaker includes a built-in 25W RMS/50W Peak Class D amplifier which powers it along with the passive speaker. The amp can provide clean, articulate stereo sound and an ultra-wide frequency response of 80Hz to 20kHz.

Bass Reflex MDF Enclosure:  The CR3-X multimedia monitor speakers employ a bass reflex enclosure with custom-tuned rear-firing ports for smooth, even bass extension. These all-wood MDF cabinets, with vinyl wrap, provide a natural sonic character superior to low-grade plastic designs. The CR3-X speakers do not included grilles.

Convenient Controls: A convenient front-panel volume knob gives you easy access to the On/Off/Volume functions, and a rear-panel "master" power switch is also provided. When both controls are On, a ring around the Running Man logo will illuminate white. A rear-panel speaker placement switch (L/R) lets you choose which side of your desk gets the speaker with the volume knob.

Analog Inputs: The CR3-X multimedia speakers give you a choice of analog inputs provided on the rear-panel of the powered monitor. Inputs include:

• Two 1/4" TRS balanced/unbalanced (L/R)

• Two RCA unbalanced (L/R)

Speaker Cable: Because the amplifier is built into only one of the CR3-X multimedia monitor speakers, you'll need to connected the included 6.5' speaker cable between the two loudspeaker's rear-panel spring-clip terminals.

Headphone Jack: A dedicated front-panel headphone jack (3.5mm) is provided. Plugging in headphones defeats the speakers for truly silent work and you can quickly adjust levels with the main volume knob.

MC-100 Headphones

Headphone Overview: The included MC-100 professional headphones feature large custom-designed, precision drivers, ensuring the best possible headroom and bass response. Comfortable ear pads and headband can provide hours of "fatigue-free" use with clear, accurate sound. An attached 116" headphone cord gives you plenty of freedom to move around. The headphone cord is terminated in a 3.5mm TRS connector and includes a 3.5mm to 1/4" TRS adapter.
