Our take on the Rockville RCM03 Pro Studio Recording Condenser Microphone

The Rockville RCM03 is a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone in an aluminum body with a steel grille. It runs on 48V phantom power through an XLR cable or plugs into a computer sound card with the included 3.5mm-to-XLR cable. It ships with a metal shock mount and foam cap, so a home recordist gets the mounting hardware in the box. Its specs are modest next to studio condensers: 30Hz–20kHz response, 126dB max SPL and under 18dB-A self-noise, which suits vocals and acoustic instruments in a quiet room more than loud sources.

Questions and answers

Does the RCM03 need phantom power?
Yes, when connected by XLR to a mixer or interface it needs 48V DC phantom power. The included 3.5mm-to-XLR cable lets you plug into a computer sound card instead.
What is in the box?
The microphone, a 10-foot XLR-to-XLR cable, a 10-foot 3.5mm-to-XLR cable, a metal shock mount, a metal anti-wind foam cap, an owner's manual and a warranty card.
What kind of microphone is it?
It is a large-diaphragm, internally polarized cardioid condenser. The fixed cardioid pattern picks up mostly from the front, which suits single-voice and single-instrument recording.
Can it handle loud sources?
Its maximum input SPL is 126dB at 1kHz with 1.0% THD. That is fine for vocals and acoustic instruments, but close-miking drums or a loud guitar cab can push it.
How much self-noise does it have?
The equivalent noise level is under 18dB A. That is audible on very quiet sources, so it is better suited to normal-level vocals and instruments than to faint room ambience.
Does it work with a USB port?
No. It is an analog microphone with XLR output. You connect it to a phantom-powered interface or mixer, or to a computer sound card with the 3.5mm-to-XLR cable.
