Sennheiser Profile USB Microphone for Zoom and Teams calls, podcasts, live streams
In this week’s episode we have a look at and listen to Sennheiser’s Profile USB microphone. This cardioid condenser mic is made for easily capturing quality stream and podcast audio via a simple USB-C connection. This sleek USB mic is ready to stream and record right out of the box. In this video we test out the Profile’s sound quality, walk through its feature set, and determine the workflows in which it might be most useful. Let’s take a closer look!
