Capture acoustic rhythms or your best electric riffs with this B&H Kit, which combines a Universal Audio Volt 476P USB-C audio interface with a cardioid dynamic microphone, an XLR mic cable, a pair of closed-back, over-ear studio monitoring headphones, a USB-C to USB-A adapter, and a tripod mic stand with fixed boom.
Four mic preamps with vibe-rich tube-emulation circuitry, built-in analog 1176-style compression, pristine pro-grade conversion, MIDI ports, and an impressive bundle of music production software make the Universal Audio Volt 476P portable 4x4 audio interface a top-notch yet affordable win for quality-conscious collaborators, vocalists, musicians, and even content creators such as podcasters and livestreamers. Attractive, sturdy, and compact, this USB Type-C interface is equally capable in a computer-based home studio or on the go with your iPad or iPhone.
Plug mics, guitars, or synths into the Volt 476P's four mic / line / Hi-Z preamps and press the Vintage switches to impart the pleasing character of an emulated UA vintage 610 tube preamp to your voice or instrument. Keep peaks under control while adding punch with three selectable presets of 1176-like analog compression. Direct monitoring lets you hear yourself with no distracting latency, and there are separate volume controls for the speaker and the two headphone outputs.
Universal Audio bundled the Volt 476P with versatile and creativity-inspiring software including the popular Ableton Live Lite DAW, UJAM virtual instruments, Melodyne pitch correction, and high-end processors for mixing, mastering, and transforming ideas into polished productions.
Connect your beat machine or keyboard controller to the MIDI 5-pin ports on the rear panel to easily integrate them with your setup. Then plug your speakers or headphones via 1/4" sockets to monitor your audio with no latency.

The Kopul Studio Elite 4000 Series XLR M to XLR F Microphone Cable (15') is a studio-quality cable for connecting mics to mixers, preamps, audio interfaces, and recorders or to be used in any other application where XLR connectivity is required. The cable is engineered to be both quiet and durable, and is well suited for critical recording and broadcast situations.
Studio Elite 4000 Series cables are made from 24 AWG OFC copper wire that's wrapped with PE insulation and a conductive PVC inner shield. A cotton-yarn inner layer helps reduce electrostatic and microphonic noise. A 98% braided outer shield makes the cable resistant to EMI and RFI noise. The Neutrik XX silver connectors provide a high level of connectivity, and all the solder connections are shrink-wrapped for protection.
Thanks to the 15° swiveling earcups, high-quality materials, and generous cushioning on the headband and earpads, the headphones are both durable and comfortable to wear. Exiting from the left earcup, the attached 9.8' cable reduces tangles and simplifies channel identification. The cable sports a 3.5mm mini plug for use with mobile devices and computer soundcards, and a 1/4" snap-on adapter is included for easy hookup to audio interfaces, mixers, and stereo receivers.
The Auray MS-5230F Tripod Microphone Stand with Fixed Boom features durable, steel construction. The 31.5" boom arm allows you to angle the mic however you need it. An ergonomic twist-action clutch helps adjust the height of the stand, while the reinforced tripod base and nonslip feet keep it firmly and sturdily in place. The Auray MS-5230F mic stand collapses for easy transport.
