Microfoon DeLOCK 66822

The DeLOCK 66822 is a multifunctional USB condenser microphone designed for high-quality voice and vocal recording. It features a dual-capsule condenser with switchable polar patterns, a built-in headphone output and stepless volume controls, making it suitable for streaming, podcasting, gaming and video meetings. The microphone comes in a black metal housing and connects via USB with a 1 m cable; it delivers a frequency response of 20–20,000 Hz and a sample rate of 48 kHz.

Advantages

The microphone provides clear, low-noise recordings thanks to its dual-capsule design and high sensitivity. A switchable cardioid and omnidirectional polar pattern lets you choose directional or all-around pickup. The integrated 3.5 mm headphone output enables direct monitoring at 16-bit/48 kHz quality. Stepless controls for microphone gain and headphone volume plus a quick-mute function allow precise level adjustments. USB plug-and-play operation ensures compatibility with Windows, macOS, Chrome OS and Linux without driver installation, while the metal base with rubber pad offers a stable, non-slip stand.

How to use

Connect the microphone to a computer via the supplied USB cable; the device supports USB plug-and-play so no driver installation is required. Select the DeLOCK 66822 as the input device in your operating system or recording application. Use the rear switch to select the desired polar pattern: choose cardioid for focused single-source capture or omnidirectional for room or group recording. Adjust microphone gain with the dedicated knob and set headphone volume with the second knob. Press the gain knob to mute the microphone instantly when needed. Plug headphones into the 3.5 mm jack to monitor audio with minimal latency.

Recommendations

Place the microphone on a stable surface using the metal base and rubber pad; keep the microphone at an appropriate distance (typically 10–30 cm) from the sound source and speak directly toward the capsule for best clarity. Use cardioid mode to minimise background noise and omnidirectional mode when capturing multiple speakers or ambient sound. Monitor levels through the headphone output and avoid excessively high gain settings to prevent distortion.
