Digital Interface:
The Joemeek Digital Audio Interface provides high quality digital audio outputs. The digital audio outputs are compatible with most digital recorders, as well as Digital Audio Workstations and mixers. S/PDIF format is available from the optical and RCA phono connectors.
The Joemeek Digital Interface has highly stable onboard master clocks for low-jitter, hi-fi results. Internal sample rates of 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz or 96kHz are selected by means of rear panel switches. 44.1kHz is the standard used for audio CD's, while 48kHz and 96kHz are widely used in recording studios. In general, the higher the sample rate, the better the audio fidelity, but the more disk space is required for the recording. For example, recording at 96kHz requires twice as much storage as 48kHz. Consult the manual of your recorder or DAW as to what sample rates it will accommodate.
JM37-DP
The JM37-DP is a high quality, large diaphragm condenser microphone with Cardioid and Omni patterns. By utilizing FET devices for both preamplifier and output stages, we created a microphone that's destined to be your "go-to" mic for a variety of recording purposes.
We used classic "center-electrode" design for the capsule, which provides very smooth extended frequency response. Then we used dynamic feedback at the capacitor element, which further enhanced the audio quality by eliminating distortions that may occur at high SPL.
The large 1.035" dual diaphragms are manufactured from micro-fine Mylar with gold sputtering. The body is machined from solid brass, with connection to the outside world via a 3 Pin XLR connector. Power is supplied via Phantom Power from either your console or microphone preamplifier.
An excellent choice for male and female lead vocals, the JM37-DP also excels at recording choir, orchestral and other acoustic instruments.
