Get inspired by the CHERRY UM MICROPHONE SERIES and create new content – just the way you like it. Use the USB microphone when streaming, for a video conference, a gaming session, a podcast or to make vocal or music recordings – you can give your creativity a completely free rein. The USB microphones enable professional recordings and let you benefit from crystal-clear and detailed audio quality thanks to their 96 KHz sampling rate (for UM 3.0 and UM 6.0 ADVANCED); while UM 9.0 PRO RGB has 192 KHz. The shock mount function* ensures that unwanted vibrations or background noise are perfectly isolated by the specially designed rubber bands, as the microphone is completely decoupled from the design metal stand.

Each of the CHERRY USB microphones features a three-legged stand made entirely of metal, which has a durable and resistant metal body. This guarantees a firm and stable stand at all times and protects the USB condenser microphone from any damage it could sustain if it was accidentally knocked over.
Sound waves hit the microphone from different directions depending on whether you want to record vocals with the USB microphone, participate in a video call with several people or record a face-to-face interview. To optimally adapt the sound to the respective environment and really focus on what you want to record, the CHERRY UM MICROPHONE SERIES lets you choose between up to four polar patterns:
Sound is recorded from the front
Sound is recorded from all directions
Sound is recorded from the front and the back
Sound is recorded from the front right and from the front left
Simply take it out of its plastic-free packaging and off you go: These USB microphones have an impressively chic and tasteful design. The CHERRY UM 9.0 PRO RGB has even been awarded a “Special Mention” in the German Design Awards in the category “Excellent Product Design” in the sub-category, “Entertainment”. Each USB-C microphone has its own style and is simply an eye-catcher in any setup. Even better: The CHERRY USB microphones can be easily connected via Plug & Play using the included USB-C cable and are ready to use right away – without tedious assembly or software installation. Your CHERRY USB microphone is compatible with PC, PS4, PS5, and Mac.
Unintentional recordings and the post-production that comes with them are not only annoying, but can also be very time-consuming. The good news: Our USB microphones are all equipped with a handy push-to-mute function that lets you avoid just that. With just one touch, you can mute the podcast microphone. As soon as you tap the mute icon again, the red LED indicator goes off and recording can continue. Once you've plugged in your headphones, you can increase or decrease the volume of them as you please using the CHERRY mouse wheel design knob located on the back of the mic. The gain control* on the front adjusts the sensitivity of the mic, and you can increase it, for example, if you want to record sounds that are quieter and/or further away.

For all those who like everything to be nice and tidy or who simply want more freedom of movement: Combine the CHERRY USB microphones with one of the extremely sturdy CHERRY MA 3.0 UNI or CHERRY MA 6.0 UNI USB microphone arms and create more space on your desk. The arms are made entirely of aluminum and can be effortlessly attached using a desk clamp. Once your USB microphone is connected to the arm, you can adjust the angles as you like to find the very best position. And to top it off, the microphone holders are suitable for universal use and therefore support not only CHERRY UM MICROPHONE SERIES microphones, but all kinds of USB microphones as well as many other digital devices.
The CHERRY UM POP FILTER, on the other hand, perfect complements the CHERRY USB microphones: Not only does it filter out pops or hisses when you speak, but it also protects your USB podcast microphone from moisture, allowing you to enjoy your product for longer.
Communication brings people together: As a renowned keyboard manufacturer with decades of experience, we at CHERRY have always tried to make sure you can really express yourself digitally. Now it's time to put your own voice to work: With CHERRY USB microphones, you'll really stand out in video calls thanks to the clear and intelligible sound. Or create professional sound recordings that you can then later share with the world. See for yourself and complete your gaming or workspace setup with the CHERRY UM MICROPHONE SERIES.
Depending on the situation in which you want to use your external microphone with USB-C port and depending on your own needs, one particular model of the CHERRY UM MICROPHONE SERIES may be more suitable than another. An overview of the built-in features of the different models is provided in this table.
No, any CHERRY USB microphone can be connected to a PC, laptop, Mac, PS4 or PS5 via Plug & Play and is ready for use immediately.
On the back of the USB microphones is a volume control that looks like a CHERRY mouse wheel. You can use this to control the volume of your headphones. You adjust the sensitivity of the microphone via the gain control on the front. For example, if you would like to capture sounds that are quieter and/or further away, you can increase the sensitivity.
Yes, you can use the CHERRY MA 3.0 UNI and CHERRY MA 6.0 UNI USB microphone arms with the CHERRY USB mics – as well as with other types of microphones and many other digital devices. The microphone holders have a 3/8" threaded connector for studio and multimedia workstations, but a 3/8" to 5/8" adapter is included with both.
All CHERRY UM MICROPHONE SERIES USB microphones come with a USB-A to USB-C cable. To use them via a USB-C port, you need a separate USB-C to USB-C cable or a corresponding adapter.
Normally, CHERRY USB microphones are automatically recognized by MS TEAMS. If, for some reason, you have to select your microphone manually first, you have the option of setting the input and output devices in MS TEAMS via More - Device Settings. Please keep in mind: As a rule, the USB microphone is automatically recognized not only as an input device, but also as an output device. As long as you have connected your headphones to the microphone, this shouldn’t be a problem. However, if you do not use the headphone jack, you should select a different output device, otherwise you won’t be able to hear anything.
Yes, but in this case only the headphones will work – the headphones' microphone will not.
Yes. With each of CHERRY's three USB microphones, you have the option to listen to your own voice output through the headphones and therefore monitor it. This works as follows: Right-click on the volume icon on the taskbar and select “Sounds”. Then click on the “Playback” tab and select your CHERRY Mic. After clicking on “Properties”, go to the “Level” tab. If you want to use the monitoring function, the sound must be turned on at “Microphone”. To switch off the function, set the sound to mute.
The CHERRY UM 6.0 ADVANCED streaming microphone has two different polar patterns: cardioid and omnidirectional modes. The former captures sound from the front, while the latter captures sound from all directions. Depending on what you want to record, you can switch between the different modes to get the best possible results.
With the CHERRY UM 9.0 PRO RGB, you have a total of four polar patterns to choose from: cardioid, omnidirectional, bidirectional, and stereo. Take a look at this table to see the direction from which the sound is recorded in a particular mode in more detail.
You can switch between seven colors and the rainbow effect on the CHERRY UM 9.0 PRO RGB gaming microphone by pressing the switch on the back. If you press and hold the switch, you can turn the RGB illumination on and off. No special software is required.
