Designed for content creators, podcasters, streamers, and musicians, ESI's The PRODUCER Recording Bundle provides you with everything you need to make high-quality recordings with your Windows or Mac computer. The bundle includes the U22 XT 2x2 USB-B audio interface, cosMik 10 condenser microphone with a desktop stand, eXtra 10 monitoring modeling headphones, MoCo passive monitor controller, and a 1-Year Pro Tools Artist subscription.
The U22 XT interface features 2 analog inputs and 2 analog output channels, with RCA line inputs, a microphone preamplifier with XLR input and support for +48V phantom power, a 1/4" Hi-Z instrument input for guitars, a high quality headphone output, and 2 1/4" TRS line outputs. The USB-B port and included USB cable makes it easy to connect the interface and record your audio to your Mac/Windows computer.
The cosMik 10 is a cardioid condenser microphone that can be universally used for vocals, acoustic guitars, in front of a guitar cabinet, and much more. The lightweight half-closed eXtra 10 monitoring headphones with dSONIQ Realphones modeling software give you true studio-control-room sound with your headphones, no matter where you are.
MoCo is a fully passive monitor controller that gives you control over the playback volume of your studio monitors, with Mute, A/B, and Mono functions. The Producer comes with bundled audio software to get you started right away. Pro Tools Artist provides everything you need to make beats, write songs, record, and mix music that's ready to be heard across the most popular streaming platforms.
With its stylish black-and-copper color scheme and compact body, the ESI cosMik 10 is an attractive and affordable studio microphone for vocalists, musicians, and podcasters. Utilizing a 1" large-diaphragm condenser capsule, the cosMik 10 offers a 30 Hz to 18 kHz frequency response and a high maximum SPL of 135 dB, making it well suited for an array of instruments as well as the human voice.
The circuitry in the cosMik 10 helps it maintain ultralow self-noise performance (just 5 dBA), so your recordings will be free of the hiss commonly induced by many budget microphones. Being a condenser, the microphone runs on standard 48V phantom power. Getting ready to record is simple; position the cosMik 10 in the included mic holder and tabletop tripod stand, connect it to your preamp or interface with the supplied XLR cable, and engage +48V from your preamp/interface.
Bundled with specially tuned modeling software, the ESI eXtra 10 monitoring headphones are designed to provide producers, home recordists, and traveling engineers with the experience of checking mixes on various monitoring systems such as hi-fi speakers, earbuds, and portable devices. The dSONIQ Realphones ESI Edition software, which can run as a DAW plug-in or standalone program, offers a host of selections and adjustable settings for the room, speakers, EQ, and more.
The headphones utilize an over-ear design with half-closed-back earcups for a blend of comfort, moderate noise isolation, and natural response. Equipped with large 50mm neodymium dynamic drivers, they are capable of reproducing a broad frequency range from 15 Hz to 29 kHz. The 8' single-sided cable is terminated with a 3.5mm mini plug for compatibility with desktop and laptop computers as well as many mobile devices. A gold-plated 1/4" screw-on adapter is included to enable proper connection to an audio interface or external headphone amp.
The ESI MoCo Passive Monitor Controller not only attenuates volume, but provides input and output switching to different monitor sets. Two sets of inputs can be sent to either of two sets of outputs (no balanced to unbalanced conversion). This way, your audio interface's balanced output can be sent to one of two sets of monitors, or select a secondary audio source to be output via either of those monitors. The front panel contains the large central knob, which drives a high-quality volume potentiometer, input and output selection buttons, plus an L/R switch and mono mixdown buttons.
