Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Q2U Recording Pack from Samson! The package
contains all you need to get started recording, and monitoring, high quality audio on
just about any computer system with a USB connection. Included in the pack is the Q2U,
2-in-1 USB Microphone with USB cable for recording any sound source and the HP20
stereo headphones, which provide crystal clear monitoring of your recordings. Plus, the
Q2U has a standard XLR output allowing you to use the included XLR cable to connect to
your sound system for live performances. The Q2U features a smooth sounding dynamic
element, capable of handling high SPL (sound pressure level), cleverly interfaced to
onboard high quality mic pre, Analog-to-Digital converter and USB output. There’s even
on onboard headphone amplifier with level control so you can connect the HP20 directly
to the microphone. The Q2U is perfect for recording your music, podcast or an acoustic
audio source on your favorite DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). Just plug in the supplied
USB cable, launch your DAW and start recording. The Q2U faithfully reproduces a variety
of sound sources including vocals, acoustic instruments and overhead cymbals, to name
a few, and because the Q2U can handle high SPL you can use it on drums or in front of a
loud guitar amp. The extended frequency and fast transient response ensures an accurate
reproduction with linear characteristics from bottom to top. For recording music, podcasts,
house of worship services, or conferences meetings, the Q2U and HP20 are the perfect
solution for recording quality digital audio on your computer. Just plug in and start
creating!
