Product details

The AKG ARA is a high-quality tabletop microphone specifically designed for recording voices in various applications such as online videos, podcasts, and music productions. With its USB connection option, it is easy to use and offers high-resolution recordings in professional quality of up to 24-bit and 96 kHz. The innovative arrangement of the two microphone capsules allows for selection between different polar patterns, making the microphone versatile. The cardioid pattern is ideal for solo recordings, while the omnidirectional pattern can capture multiple voices simultaneously. The microphone is ready to use right away, as it is compatible with common operating systems and requires no additional drivers. Additionally, a headphone can be connected to monitor your own voice or playbacks in real-time. The stable stand and the ability to mount the microphone on standard tripods provide extra flexibility for various recording environments.

  • High-resolution recordings up to 24-bit and 96 kHz
  • Versatile polar patterns: cardioid and omnidirectional
  • Easy USB connection without driver installation
  • Headphone jack for real-time monitoring
