Neat Microphones, the innovative brand of high-quality digital USB and analog microphones from Turtle Beach Corporation, today revealed the Worker Bee II, the ideal creation tool for recording, podcasting, and streaming applications. The latest microphone added to Neat’s all-new line-up, the Worker Bee II is heir to their original Worker Bee that was often noted by performers and engineers as an ideal mic for capturing richly detailed vocals, as well as the precision of plucked and percussive instruments – all at an exceptional MSRP of $99.99. The Worker Bee II launches December 6, 2021 and is available for pre-order now from participating retailers, including Amazon, American Music Supply, Sweetwater, and zZounds.
"We’re extremely proud that we can deliver such an accurate recording instrument at $99.99. What the Worker Bee II hears, it reproduces truthfully," said Skipper Wise, Founder of Neat Microphones and Vice President at Turtle Beach. "We’re excited to offer such a faithful sound at a high value price." The Worker Bee II’s capsule captures every nuance and transient it hears, giving an open and natural sonic signature. It features solid-state cardioid condenser microphone technology with an internally shockmounted, medium-sized 25 mm capsule and discrete Class A electronics that can handle high sound pressure levels with a wide frequency and dynamic range. It sounds great on guitar amps, brass, live recordings, and drums, while retaining a level of detail that brings out the nuances in vocals and spoken voice.
