Comprehensive package

As the microphone is USB-C compatible, it can be connected to numerous modern devices that can also run recording software, and first-rate sound quality is ensured courtesy of a 96kHz/24-bit signal resolution. A feature rarely seen on a USB microphone is the selection of six inputs and six outputs, which are incorporated into the Presonus Revelator's built-in audio interface, thus rendering an external audio interface superfluous in many cases. A wide range of recording options is also provided courtesy of three different polar patterns. A table stand with and integrated cable management feature is included as an accessory, while further additions to the package include the Studio One Artist software and the Studio Magic software suite for recording.

Streaming and software control

The Presonus Revelator comes complete with voice effects and 16 corresponding presets to help reduce the adjustment time. The Revelator’s technical capabilities don't end there, however: An exceptional feature of this microphone is its ability to enable virtual four-channel streams, which allows recordings and playback to be sent from one application to another. What is more, Skype or Zoom calls can be recorded and streamed, as well as gaming audio, for which two loopback channels in stereo format are available. The Presonus Universal Control software (available free of charge) ensures uncomplicated control and includes channel strips complete with EQ presets as well as a compressor, gate, limiter, and even a reverb effect.

Advanced and podcast reporters

Advanced podcasters in particular will have numerous functions at their fingertips with the Presonus Revelator, allowing them to take their work to a whole new level by not only enabling them to perform a wide variety of recordings but also live streaming. Podcasters looking to record interviews with minimal fuss will be delighted to find that the microphone is equipped with two headphone outputs and features a figure-eight polar pattern. Beginners and professionals alike will also benefit from the fact that the microphone signal can be monitored with zero latency. Weighing around 730g, the Presonus Revelator can also be easily transported for on-the-road recordings and conveniently stowed away in a laptop backpack.

About Presonus

Presonus is a US company founded in 1995 by Jim Odom and Brian Smith in Baton Rouge, Lousiana. The firm designs hardware and software at both professional and more affordable levels for musicians and producers. Presonus first made a splash in the mid-1990s with the DCP8, an eight-channel analogue compressor/limiter/gate with fader and mute automation that could be digitally controlled by MIDI. In the early 2000s followed a series of microphone amplifiers and the first audio interfaces for the then-emerging home studio scene. Today, the company's product range includes audio interfaces, microphone preamps, digital mixing consoles, and studio monitors as well as the established DAW software Studio One.

Multifaceted recordings and live streams

The fact that the Presonus Revelator draws its operating voltage via the USB connection means that no additional power supply is required, which allows the microphone to be used on the go with a laptop without the need for an external adapter. Users will therefore benefit from being able to use the microphone relatively independently of on-site power sources, and it is also ideal for recording podcasts. While the cardioid characteristics of the Presonus Revelator will prove beneficial for presenters, the microphone’s figure-eight polar pattern is ideal for recording individual interviews when the interviewee is sitting or standing opposite the interviewer, and the omnidirectional pattern is suitable for capturing atmos. All of these aspects come together for home recordings, rendering multi-faceted recordings possible with a single microphone. Last but not least, the Presonus Revelator also allows Facebook and YouTube live streams to be implemented with ease.

In the spotlight: Virtual in/out streams

Virtual in and out streams are also possible courtesy of the Presonus Revelator. Here, audio streams from various applications are picked up and processed, which in the case of screencasts, for example, can replace an external audio interface. For this reason, the product description includes a reference to a "6-in/6-out audio interface", even though the microphone does not possess a corresponding number of visible, physical connection sockets. The Presonus Revelator’s multi-mode function provides three stereo devices which, in addition to the microphone signal itself, include two loopback streams for enabling various functions such as recording audio signals from Zoom meetings or sound from gaming streams. These loopback streams, combined with the headphone signal from the microphone, form six outputs, two of which go to the microphone/headphone output and the remaining four serve as virtual outputs.

Report

Very good for its price! But there are nuances!

mrSpirit 09.06.2023

Cons - the body is very sensitive to touch. Even on a stand, the microphone will hear your knock on the table!
I recommend soft suspension!
Of the pluses - good processing, with which you can customize the sound for yourself.
As a result, a not very clear and rough sound will turn into a good and beautiful one by default.
But there is a difficulty - for many beginners it will be difficult to handle the settings!
Moreover, the presets are not very well matched!
But if the user has knowledge 0, it will be easy for him to customize it for himself!
