1. BM3000 Condenser Microphone (Core Unit)

• Microphone Type: Condenser
  • Principle: Utilizes a large diaphragm pressure gradient transducer for accurate and detailed sound capture.
• Polar Pattern: Cardioid (Uni-directional)
  • Benefit: Primarily picks up sound from the front, effectively minimizing unwanted ambient noise from the sides and rear, making it ideal for vocals, instruments, and focused voice recordings.
• Frequency Response: 20Hz – 20kHz
  • Benefit: Captures a wide spectrum of audio frequencies, ensuring rich lows, clear mids, and crisp highs.
• Sensitivity: -28dB ± 2dB (0dB=1V/Pa at 1KHz) or 45dB±2dB
  • Note: Sensitivity ratings can vary slightly between manufacturers/listings, but generally indicates its ability to convert sound pressure into an electrical signal.
• Output Impedance: 150Ω ± 30% (at 1KHz) or ≥1000Ω
• Load Impedance: ≥1000Ω
• Equivalent Noise Level (SNR): 16dBA
  • Benefit: Low self-noise ensures your recordings are clean with minimal inherent microphone hiss.
• Maximum SPL (Sound Pressure Level): 130dB (at 1KHz ≤ 1% T.H.D)
  • Benefit: Can handle loud sound sources without distortion, suitable for various recording scenarios.
• Signal-to-Noise Ratio (S/N Ratio): 76dB or 78dB
• Electrical Current: 3mA
• Microphone Output Interface: 3.5mm (Standard audio jack) or 3-Pin Male XLR (depending on the specific model/package)
• Recommended Power: 48V Phantom Power Supply (Essential for optimal performance of condenser microphones. While some basic functionality might be achieved via “plugin power” from computer 3.5mm jacks, a dedicated 48V phantom power supply is highly recommended for best results and is often included in “full studio” packages or sold separately.)
• Material: Aluminium Alloy / Metal Body (often with a steel net head)
• Dimensions (Microphone Body): Approx. 190mm (Length) x Φ60mm (Diameter)
• Net Weight (Microphone Body): Approx. 346g – 350g

1. Typical Full Studio Package Inclusions

A “Full Studio Package” for the BM3000 usually provides a comprehensive set of accessories to create a functional recording setup:

• BM3000 Condenser Microphone: The primary microphone unit.

  • Function: Isolates the microphone from vibrations, floor noise, and handling sounds, ensuring cleaner audio.
  • Features: Often includes angle adjustment with a locking knob and a foam insert for secure microphone placement.
• Pop Filter:
  • Function: A dual-layer mesh screen designed to effectively eliminate plosive sounds (harsh “P” and “B” sounds) and protect the microphone from moisture.
• Adjustable Suspension Scissor Arm Stand / Boom Arm:
  • Function: Provides flexible positioning of the microphone, allowing it to be placed optimally in front of the sound source while saving desk space.
  • Mounting: Typically clamps securely to a desk or table.

• Anti-wind Foam Cap (Windscreen): A foam cover for the microphone head to reduce wind noise and breath sounds.
• User Manual: Provides instructions for assembly, connection, and basic usage.
• Optional/Common Additions (May vary by specific retailer/bundle):
  • 48V Phantom Power Supply: A standalone unit to provide the necessary power for the condenser microphone, often bundled with an XLR male to XLR female cable.
  • V8 Sound Card / External USB Audio Interface: Some packages include a basic sound card for enhanced audio processing, monitoring, and additional connectivity options (e.g., for smartphones, live streaming effects).
  • Metal Anti-wind Foam Cap / Storage Box: Some higher-end bundles might include these.

III. Compatibility

• PC: Windows Desktops (often works directly with 3.5mm input, but 48V phantom power is recommended).
• Laptop: Windows Laptops (48V phantom power is highly recommended for clear, high-gain audio).
• Smartphones: Compatible with Android and iOS devices (may require a V8 sound card or an appropriate audio adapter for full functionality and monitoring, especially for simultaneous recording and listening).
• Gaming Consoles: Compatibility varies; often works with PS4/PS5 for audio input when connected via a sound card or appropriate adapter. (Direct compatibility with Xbox is generally not supported for these types of microphones).
