PreSonus Revelator USB Microphone

Both Revelator microphones are more than a capsule on a USB cable. Each contains an audio interface, a mixer, an effects processor, and a headphone amplifier, so a stream or a podcast can be mixed, processed, and monitored without a separate interface or software chain.

The standard Revelator is a large-diaphragm condenser with three selectable pickup patterns, suited to a solo vocal, an acoustic guitar, or two people at one microphone. Its effects are State-Space modeled emulations of studio hardware for compression, reverb, and EQ, and any setup can be stored as a preset and shared. The Revelator Dynamic uses the capsule design from the PD-70 broadcast microphone, trading pattern choice for the off-axis rejection that keeps an untreated room out of the recording, and adds eight prepared voice presets. Both have a built-in mixer for blending backing tracks, calls, or game audio into the stream, and both can record the processed signal directly so there is less to fix afterwards.
