{"product_id":"arturia-microfreak-gooseneck-vocoder-microphone","title":"Arturia Microfreak Gooseneck Vocoder Microphone","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Arturia MicroFreak Gooseneck Vocoder Microphone is a dedicated vocal-input accessory for the Arturia MicroFreak synthesizer. It gives MicroFreak owners a direct, integrated way to use the instrument's vocoder functions without adding a separate stand-mounted microphone. Its compact format keeps the microphone positioned at the synth for hands-on performance and sound design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis accessory is intended for MicroFreak users who want to create voice-driven synth textures, robotic vocal effects, and vocoded melodic parts. The microphone connects directly to the MicroFreak's combined headphone and microphone port through its fitted base. A secondary headphone connection on the base keeps headphone monitoring available while the microphone is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MicroFreak vocoder processes the character and level of a voice while the synthesizer supplies the playable pitch and tone. The host instrument's 16-band vocoder engine can create articulate speech-like effects, sustained vocal pads, and more abstract filtered textures. MicroFreak mic settings provide gain adjustment to help match the input level to the performer and application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA flexible gooseneck lets the microphone be placed close to the performer's mouth without obstructing the MicroFreak controls. The dedicated base aligns with the edges of the MicroFreak case for a stable fitted installation. This makes it suitable for desktop production, live electronic performance, and compact synthesizer setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe microphone is a focused upgrade path for compatible MicroFreak owners, rather than a standalone recording microphone. It is designed around the MicroFreak's 3.5 mm CTIA\/AHJ TRRS headphone and microphone connection. Headphones are recommended for monitoring vocoder performance, since speaker playback can be picked up by the microphone and cause feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicroFreak Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed specifically for use with the Arturia MicroFreak synthesizer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e16-Band Vocoder Support:\u003c\/strong\u003e Enables vocal input for the MicroFreak's 16-band vocoder mode.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible Gooseneck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lets you position the microphone close to your voice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTRRS Connection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Connects through the MicroFreak's combined 3.5 mm headphone and mic port.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone Pass-Through:\u003c\/strong\u003e Retains a headphone connection at the microphone base for monitoring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCTIA\/AHJ Wiring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses the headset-style four-contact standard required by the MicroFreak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe assembly uses a flexible gooseneck microphone with a fitted black plastic adapter base. Its purpose-built form follows the MicroFreak chassis edges when installed, helping keep the microphone steady at the instrument. The microphone uses an electret-type capsule and is intended for close vocal use with the MicroFreak vocoder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInsert the base into the MicroFreak's 3.5 mm TRRS headphone\/microphone connection, align it with the case edges, and press gently into place.

Remove the microphone by pulling straight outward, and remove it before transporting or storing the MicroFreak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ARTURIA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47991191896227,"sku":"MICROFREAK MICROPHONE","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/5416\/9507\/files\/61ug-8vkP7L.jpg?v=1786666934","url":"https:\/\/nsiexport.com\/products\/arturia-microfreak-gooseneck-vocoder-microphone","provider":"NSI Export","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
