Studio 24 USB

Thank you for purchasing the MXL Studio 24 USB microphone. With 24-bit

recording capability, zero latency monitoring and a custom GUI, you’ll

experience the highest level of sonic detail and the kind of audio quality

normally found in expensive, high-end multi-channel computer interfaces.

The Studio 24 USB is simple to set up and plugs directly into the USB port

of your PC or Mac computer. It also works with most of today’s popular

recording software programs, and we’ve even included free trial Reaper®

CD software so you can get started.

Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the features and

functions of the Studio 24 USB in order to make the most out of your new

purchase.

we recommend downloading and using the free Asio4All driver from www.

Handling the Studio 24 USB:

MXL USB mics are a professional quality, cardioid condenser studio microphone

designed speciﬁcally for recording. The Studio 24 USB microphone uses what is

known as a cardioid pickup pattern, which is more sensitive to sound waves arriving

at the front of the microphone as opposed to those arriving from the sides or rear.

User Manual

Studio 24 USB

This microphone is a USB (Universal Serial Bus) device, and interfaces directly with

Windows and Macintosh computers without the need for any special drivers. It also

carries the added beneﬁt of not requiring an external microphone preamp. However,

unlike microphones designed for live performance or dynamic models, this instru-

ment requires careful handling. Hence, you should observe the following:

ALWAYS: handle the microphone carefully, avoiding sudden shocks such as drop-

ping or bumping the microphone into other objects.

ALWAYS: maintain a distance of approximately 4 – 6 inches when speaking or sing-

ing into the microphone. You are encouraged to use a pop ﬁlter for added

protection of the sensitive capsule and to shield the instrument from saliva

and sudden bursts of air. For outdoor performances, you would be well

advised to use a windscreen as protection for your microphone

NEVER: tap the microphone to check if it’s working. The red LED behind the micro-

phone’s protective grill will tell you it’s on and that the correct side is facing

you.

NEVER: blow into the microphone to check if it’s working. The red LED behind the

microphone’s protective grill will tell you it’s on and that the correct side is

facing you.

By following these few basic handling procedures, you can expect a long and happy

relationship with your new microphone.

Correct Positioning and Controls

The red LED should be facing you when you speak or sing into the microphone. If

recording instruments, the red LED should be facing the instrument. Maintain a dis-

tance of approximately 4 – 6 inches when speaking or singing into the microphone.

For instruments, experiment with the distance to ﬁnd the best results.

Red LED: When the red LED

is illuminated, this indicates

that the microphone is con-

nected to USB power and

functioning correctly.

USB Connection

The square end of the USB

cable plugs in here. The

microphone is setup to be

backwards compatible with

USB 1.1 and 2.0. We do not

recommend plugging the

microphone into a hub, as

this could potentially limit the

power and audio bandwidth

the microphone needs to

operate.

Gain Control: Use this dial

to control the record level of

the microphone into the com-

puter. This control changes

the analog signal before A/D

converter.

Headphone Jack

The 1/8-inch stereo head-

phone input accepts most

headphones. Maximum

headphone volume will vary

by manufacturer and model,

so care should always be

exercised when plugging in.

Software Tips:

For PC Users:

To get started on multi-

tracking and overdub-

bing, we recommend

using the free 30-day

trial shareware version of

Reaper. The software has

already been loaded on

the included disc or you

can download a free trial

at http://www.reaper.fm.

For Macintosh Users:

Garage Band is the easi-

est way to get started if

you are using a Macin-

tosh computer. Since it’s

included on most Macin-

tosh computers, you

probably have it installed

and ready to go!

Connecting the Studio 24 to Your Computer:

The MXL Studio 24 USB will operate with both USB 2.0

(high speed USB) and USB 1.1 data buses. We recom-

mend you connect your microphone directly to the com-

puter’s USB port as opposed to using a USB hub. USB

hubs have been known to interfere with the performance

of various USB devices.

Note: Audio and video recording can be very

taxing to a computer’s resources. For this

reason, you should close any and all running

applications that are non-essential.

Please take the following steps to get

connected:

1. If open, close your audio recording application.

You will open it after the MXL Studio 24 USB is

connected and operational.

2. Connect the corresponding ends of the sup-

plied USB cable to the Studio 24 USB and the

computer’s USB port.

3. The red LED on the MXL Studio 24 USB will illuminate indicating it is

receiving power from the computer.

4. To take advantage of the zero latency monitoring connect a pair of head-

phones to the 1/8” headphone jack on the side of the microphone.

1. To select the MXL Studio 24 USB microphone as the default audio device,
