Shure Focusrite Podcaster’s Bundle Kit

Designed to get your Podcast career up and running, the Full Compass Podcast Bundle brings together two of audio’s most recognizable names.

Shure and Focusrite have left their sonic fingerprints on everything from recording and performance to broadcasting. And now, the Full Compass Podcast Bundle puts that legendary quality at your fingertips. The Home Recording Bundle consists of the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3G, Shure’s venerable SM58, a pair of Shure SRH440A headphones in black, and a 25′ mic cable.

Shure’s SM58 has long been the choice for capturing natural-sounding vocals on stage and in the studio.The 58’s versatility is legendary as it can be used to effectively track percussion or guitar as well as vocals. A highly effective, built-in spherical filter minimizes wind and breath “pop” noise, perfect for capturing dialog in an intimate setting. The unidirectional (cardioid) pickup pattern isolates the main sound source minimizing unwanted background noise, and its rugged reliability means it’s ready to go where and whenever you are.

The 24-bit/192kHz converters in Focusrite’s Scarlett 2i2 will take every nuance and detail the 58 picks up and transfer it to your podcast. A high-performance USB audio interface, the Scarlett 2i2 features advanced third-generation mic preamps with a switchable Air setting that imparts a brighter, more open sound to vocals. No more unwanted distortion or clipping, thanks to the high-headroom, high-impedance inputs equipped with Gain Halo metering that provides intuitive input level adjustment. Combined with hum-free balanced outputs, audio playback stays clean when connected to studio monitors or your included SRH240A headphones.

The SRH440 professional studio headphones from Shure give you accurate audio across an extended range for home and studio recording plus enhanced frequency response. These versatile headphones are calibrated for use with professional audio devices such as DJ mixers, mixing consoles, and headphone amplifiers.
