This latest addition to its line of high-quality microphones is designed to capture crisp and clear recordings with unmatched clarity and sensitivity, making it ideal for professional studio recordings, podcasting, broadcasting, and voiceovers.

One of the most notable features of the Marantz MPM-2000U microphone is its cardioid polar pattern. This means it is highly directional, picking up sound from the front of the microphone and rejecting ambient noise from the sides and rear. This ensures that the recorded audio is clear and focused, even in noisy environments, making it perfect for use in a variety of settings.

The MPM-2000U is also equipped with a wide frequency response range, ranging from 20Hz to 20kHz, which allows it to capture a wide range of sound, from the lowest bass to the highest treble. This makes it an excellent choice for recording vocals, instruments, and sound effects, as it can capture even the subtlest details of the sound.

Another great feature of the Marantz MPM-2000U microphone is its USB connectivity. This means that it can be easily connected to a computer or laptop, allowing for easy recording and editing using software such as Audacity, Pro Tools, or Logic. This makes it an ideal choice for podcasters and content creators who want to produce high-quality content with ease.

Moreover, the Marantz MPM-2000U has a rugged, yet elegant design that is built to last. Its all-metal body makes it durable and resistant to wear and tear even in high-use environments, while its shock mount effectively reduces handling noise during recording. Additionally, the microphone’s swivel mount allows for easy adjustment of its position and angle, providing greater flexibility in recording.

In conclusion, the Marantz MPM-2000U microphone is a high-quality, versatile, and durable option for anyone looking to produce professional-grade audio recordings with ease. Its exceptional sound quality, cardioid polar pattern, wide frequency response range, USB connectivity, and elegant design make it a must-have for podcasters, broadcasters, and music producers alike.

    The photos show a microphone with a table stand. This tripod is NOT included in the scope of delivery and cannot be set up without the tripod. A tripod is almost always included with comparable products.

    I recently purchased the Marantz MPM-2000U microphone and have been using it for podcasting and recording vocals for my music projects. Overall, I would give it a 3 out of 5 rating. The sound quality is decent, but not exceptional. I find that the microphone works better for spoken word rather than singing, as the vocals tend to sound muddy and not very clear.

    In comparison to a popular microphone like the Shure SM7B, the Marantz MPM-2000U falls short in terms of sound quality. The Shure SM7B has a much clearer and brighter sound, making it ideal for both spoken word and singing vocals. However, the Shure SM7B is much more expensive than the Marantz MPM-2000U, so it really depends on your budget and intended use.

    I appreciate that the Marantz MPM-2000U is a USB microphone, which makes it easy to use with my computer and eliminates the need for an external audio interface. The microphone product type is a condenser microphone, which means it is more sensitive and picks up more detail in sound compared to dynamic microphones. I also appreciate that it comes with a shock mount and a pop filter to reduce unwanted noise and plosives.

    In terms of the handheld microphones placement, I find that it works best when placed directly in front of the speaker’s mouth, rather than off to the side. This allows for better pickup of the vocal sound and reduces background noise.

    As for the purchase of the microphone, I ordered it online and had it delivered to my home in San Jose. The delivery process was smooth and timely. I was interested in the Marantz MPM-2000U for a while but was hesitant to purchase it due to mixed reviews. However, I decided to go for it and see for myself whether or not it would be a good fit for my needs. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase, but I do think that there are better microphones on the market at a similar price point.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How do I properly connect a dynamic microphone to the XLR input on my Marantz MPM-2000U for live sound applications?

First, ensure that your dynamic microphone is compatible with XLR input connections. Dynamic microphones typically feature an XLR connector, which should make this step easy to verify. Locate the XLR input on your Marantz MPM-2000U receiver. The input location will vary based on your specific model, but it is usually located on the rear panel or the side of the unit. Connect one end of the XLR cable to your dynamic microphone and insert it firmly into the designated XLR input on your Marantz MPM-2000U receiver. Be sure that you align the connectors correctly to avoid damaging the pins or connector. Once connected, check the settings of your Marantz MPM-2000U to ensure that it is configured properly for live sound applications. This may include selecting the correct input source, setting appropriate volume levels, and configuring any additional audio processing features as needed. Test the connection by speaking into the microphone and verifying that your voice is being amplified through your sound system. Make any necessary adjustments to the volume or audio processing settings as needed to optimize the performance of the dynamic microphone and your live sound applications. By following these steps, you should be able to properly connect your dynamic microphone to the XLR input on your Marantz MPM-2000U receiver for live sound applications. If you encounter any issues or have additional questions about this process, we recommend consulting the user manual for your specific model or contacting Marantz customer support for further assistance.

You can do this by accessing the audio settings menu on your device's display. Test the audio quality of the external microphone by speaking into it and monitoring the sound output through your connected speakers or headphones. Adjust the gain settings as needed to achieve optimal sound levels. If you are using multiple external microphones, make sure they are all properly connected and configured for use with your Marantz MPM-2000U device. You may need to adjust the input sources on your device's display to select the appropriate microphone inputs. When finished using your external microphones, be sure to disconnect them properly from your Marantz MPM-2000U device and store them safely until they are needed again.
