Marantz Professional MPM 4000U

Professional Broadcasting Made Simple: Marantz Professional MPM 4000U

Elevate your content creation with the Marantz Professional MPM-4000U, a versatile USB condenser microphone engineered specifically for podcasters, streamers, and vocalists who demand studio-quality audio without the complexity of traditional setups. By integrating a high-performance audio interface directly into the microphone housing, the MPM-4000U eliminates the need for external mixers, preamps, or complicated wiring. Simply plug it into your computer via USB-C, and you are ready to record broadcast-standard audio immediately.

At its core, the MPM-4000U features a 14mm pure-aluminum-plated condenser capsule with a directional cardioid polar pattern. This design excels at capturing the subtle nuances of your voice while effectively minimizing unwanted ambient room noise, making it perfect for untreated home studio environments. With rugged, die-cast metal construction and built-in controls for gain, headphone volume, and instant muting, the MPM-4000U provides the professional control and durability required for both stationary desk setups and recording on the move.

Professional Studio Features

• All-in-One USB Interface: No external audio interface, preamp, or mixer required; just true plug-and-play performance.

• Cardioid Polar Pattern: Directional design focuses on your voice while tamping down room tone and off-axis noise.

• Onboard Monitoring & Control: Dedicated knobs for mic gain and headphone volume, plus a hardware mute button for total control at your fingertips.

• Broadcast-Quality Capture: Records at up to 16-bit / 48 kHz resolution, meeting the industry standard for media playback.

• Zero-Latency Monitoring: 1/8-inch (3.5mm) headphone jack allows for real-time monitoring of your audio signal.

• Full Accessory Bundle: Includes a desktop tripod stand, microphone clip, and USB-C to USB-A cable, plus free Akai MPC Beats recording software.

💡 Pro-Tip: To ensure the best connection, Marantz Professional recommends using the included USB-C to USB-A cable. If you are connecting to a device that only has USB-C ports (like an iPad Pro or newer MacBook), ensure you attach any necessary USB-A to USB-C adapters or dongles at the computer side, not directly into the microphone’s port.
