The Bumblebee features Neat’s unique implemen-
tation of a pressure-gradient, large-diaphragm
condenser mic element with an edge-terminated
6μ pure gold-sputtered mylar capsule membrane.
The Bumblebee delivers pristine sonic fidelity
directly to your Mac or Windows computer,
without the need to install pesky drivers, thanks
to a built-in, high-quality analog-to-digital con-
verter. The fingertip controls at the base of the
integrated stand provide quick access to the
Bumblebee’s onboard audio features: a three-
position Sonic Selector, a Gain Control to adjust
the microphone output level, and a Volume
Control for the built-in zero-latency (geek talk for
“you hear things the same time you say or play
them, not later”) headphone amplifier. Setup is
easy—just plug in the Bumblebee, open up your
favorite audio software, and start recording!
