THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING POLSEN.
The Polsen XLR-USB-48 is a compact and easy-to-use XLR to USB
interface that allows users to connect an XLR microphone directly
to a computer via the USB port. It’s an ideal tool for singer/
songwriters, podcasters, or musicians who need a simple yet high-
quality solution for recording with an XLR microphone directly to a
laptop or desktop computer.
Plugging the adapter into a XLR microphone, connecting the USB
cable to the computer, and setting the mic gain control are the
only steps needed to record high-quality audio to a computer.
Due to the plug-and-play capability, no drivers are needed;
the computer will instantly recognize the adapter allowing for
fast setup. The adapter features selectable phantom power for
condenser microphones. The 1/8” headphone output allows for
monitoring playback.
