Meteorite presents an immediate improvement over your computer or tablet's internal microphone, bypassing their standard mic capsules and noisy soundcards in favor of the Meteorite's studio-quality 14mm capsule, cardiod pickup pattern and dedicated audio conversion path. Meteorite's larger condenser diaphragm provides a smooth, flat frequency response to capture the natural warmth and dynamics of your voice. And the mics 16-bit, 44.1/48kHz resolution ensures the audio recorded sounds as authentic as hearing it live. Use the Meteorite once, and you'll never look back.

No matter the application, mic placement is everything! Meteorite mounts to a magnetic base that lets you tilt and swivel the microphone to customize its positioning to your exact preferences. You can even take the microphone off the base and speak directly into it for recording or communicating in crowded noisy environments.

Start recording with Meteorite right out of the box. There is no need for drivers, as the mic can be directly connected to any computer via its integrated USB cable and is compatible with most computer-based digital audio software.

When combined with the iPad using Apple's Lightning USB Camera Adapter or Camera Connection Kit (30-pin), Meteorite is a great tool for making music on-the-go.

Available as a paid download, the Samson Sound Deck Noise Cancellation Software brings noise cancellation technology for enhanced VoIP communication and computer recording to your Meteorite.
