Maono PM450S USB Microphone

USB Condenser Microphone for Streaming and Podcasting

The Maono PM450S is a USB condenser microphone kit aimed at streamers, podcasters, and home-recording creators who want studio-grade voice capture without an audio interface. A cardioid polar pattern focuses on the speaker in front of the capsule while rejecting room noise from the sides and rear, making it well suited to untreated home setups. Bundled with a BA37 boom arm, pop filter, and USB-C to USB-A cable, this kit arrives ready to mount on a desk and record.

Built-In DSP and Smart Hardware Controls

What sets the PM450S apart from a generic USB condenser is the on-board DSP chipset that handles audio processing directly inside the microphone. A 3-in-1 smart knob on the front combines microphone gain, headphone volume, and mic/mix balance into a single tactile control, while a touch-mute sensor on the top silences the signal with one tap. The zinc-alloy housing and integrated shock mount reduce handling noise and add day-to-day durability for desktop use.

Cardioid Capsule Tuned for Voice

This condenser capsule is tuned with a cardioid polar pattern that isolates the speaker's voice and minimizes ambient room sound. A 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response covers the full range of human speech and most vocal recording scenarios, while the 24-bit / 48 kHz sample rate captures detail well above standard broadcast quality.

• Polar Pattern: Cardioid — focuses on the voice in front and rejects side/rear noise.
• Capsule Type: Condenser — high sensitivity for quiet, detailed vocal capture
• Frequency Response: 20 Hz – 20 kHz — full-range coverage for speech and singing

24-bit Recording with Maono Link and Arena

A customized DSP chipset runs noise reduction, EQ, and limiter processing on-board, reducing the load on the host computer. The Maono Link software exposes a 5-band EQ, noise gate, reverb, and lighting controls for deeper customization, while Arena serves as an alternative for gaming and streaming workflows.

• Bit Depth / Sample Rate: 24-bit / 48 kHz — studio-grade resolution for clean editing headroom
• Compatible software including Maono Link and Arena provides EQ, noise gate, reverb, and lighting presets.
• Connector Type: USB and USB Type-C — plug-and-play with laptops and PCs

Boom Arm, Pop Filter, and Desk-Ready Bundle

The bundle ships as a complete desk-mounting kit rather than a bare microphone, so creators do not need to source accessories separately. Included is a BA37 boom arm that clamps to a desk and positions the mic at mouth level, while the metal pop filter softens plosives during close-mic speech. A 3.5 mm headphone jack on the mic body supports zero-latency direct monitoring.

• Boom Arm: BA37 — included desk-mount arm for flexible positioning
• Package Content: USB-C to USB-A Cable, Pop Filter, Microphone, Desk Boom Arm — full kit out of the box
• Direct monitoring is available via the 3.5 mm headphone jack for real-time, zero-latency feedback.
