32-bit float is a recording format that captures a wide dynamic range, allowing you to record everything from quiet whispers to loud sounds without clipping or distortion. You can adjust the gain of your recording later without losing audio quality.
Phantom power is only required when using the XLR connection. The USB connection does not require phantom power.
For ease of use and maximum flexibility, use the USB connection. This allows for direct recording and access to the microphone's advanced features. For traditional studio setups, the XLR connection provides the highest sound quality.
