16mm Condenser Capsule
The 16mm condenser capsule is designed to capture detailed vocals and spoken audio, making the PM422 suitable for podcasts, streaming, voice-over, singing, and home recording.

Cardioid Pickup Pattern
The cardioid pickup pattern focuses mainly on sound from the front of the microphone while helping reduce unwanted sound from the sides and rear for more focused voice capture.
192kHz / 24bit Digital Audio
A professional sound chipset supports recording at up to 192kHz/24bit, providing high-resolution digital audio for compatible recording applications and computer setups.
20Hz–20kHz Frequency Response
The 20Hz–20kHz frequency response provides a wide recording range for vocals, spoken voice, podcasting, streaming, and other home-studio applications.

USB Plug-and-Play Setup
Connect the PM422 directly to a compatible Windows or macOS computer through USB and select it as your recording device, with no separate audio interface required for normal use.

Adjustable Microphone Gain
The built-in gain knob lets you adjust microphone input sensitivity directly from the microphone for easier control over your recording level.

Touch-Sensitive Mute
Quickly mute the microphone using the touch-sensitive mute control, making it convenient during live streams, podcasts, meetings, gaming sessions, and recordings.

Zero-Latency Headphone Monitoring
The built-in 3.5mm headphone output lets you monitor your microphone in real time without noticeable delay and adjust headphone volume directly from the microphone.
Shock Mount & Pop Filter
The included shock mount helps reduce vibration and handling noise, while the pop filter helps control plosive sounds during vocal and spoken-word recording.
Adjustable Boom Arm Setup
The included scissor boom arm and desk clamp provide flexible microphone positioning, letting you move the microphone closer when recording and reposition it when not in use.
