Q9U • XLR/USB USB Dynamic Microphone
2
Congratulations on your purchase of the Samson Q9U XLR/USB Dynamic
Broadcast Microphone. The Q9U features a humbucking dynamic neodymium
capsule that offers enough output to seamlessly integrate into any setup without
the need for external gain boosting devices. The analog XLR output allows the
microphone to connect to any standard mixer or audio interface. Additionally
the Q9U features a USB-C connection for instant plug-and-play, driverless
connectivity to a computer. The Q9U includes sought after features such as a
24bit/96kHz analog to digital converter, zero-latency headphone output and an
onboard mute switch. The Low-cut and mid-presence boost controls offer further
onboard sound tailoring options. An internal air-pneumatic shock mount isolates
the capsule from mechanical noise and a cardioid pickup pattern provides
excellent off-axis rejection, minimizing ambient noise and capturing the perfect
amount of sound without adding coloration to the original signal source. In order
to minimize the popping and plosives we have included a foam windscreen.
In these pages, you’ll find a detailed description of the features of the Q9U, as
well as step-by-step instructions for its setup and use. If your microphone was
purchased in the United States, you’ll also find a registration card enclosed—
don’t forget to follow the instructions so that you can receive online technical
support and so that we can send you updated information about this and other
