DeLOCK 66499 Laptop Microphone

The DeLOCK 66499 is a wired USB laptop microphone designed for clear voice and vocal transmission. It features a unidirectional cardioid polar pattern, low self-noise and high sensitivity to capture detailed sounds. The compact black microphone measures 196 mm in depth with a 23 mm diameter and connects via USB Type-A, receiving power from the USB port. It is compatible with common operating systems including Windows, macOS, Chrome OS and Linux.

Advantages

The cardioid polar pattern focuses on the sound source in front of the microphone while reducing ambient noise from the sides and rear. A centrally placed mute button allows immediate muting, and an LED ring indicates operating status with blue or red light. The flexible gooseneck enables precise positioning. USB plug-and-play operation requires no driver installation for quick setup.

How to use

Adjust input levels in your operating system or recording software as needed before starting voice transmission or recording.

Recommendations

Place the microphone 10–30 cm from the mouth for clear capture, avoid direct breath into the capsule, and use the cardioid orientation to minimise background noise.
