I run an internet radio broadcast from my home. I have used many microphones for this broadcast, and I thought I would invest in an inexpensive microphone so than I could use it on some remote broadcasts. I thought, "I'll buy this mic, and if it tears up I'll only be out a few dollars". I also thought that if I didn't like it, I would just send it back. When I got the mic I was pleasently surprised at the sturdy build and the tone of the mic. I tested the microphone in my studio, and decided to use it in the studio instead of in the field. I have added it to the other three microphones and am now using it for some talk radio segments. This microphone is perfect for the price. The only problem is that it gets a little muddy if you speak too close to it when recording at higher levels. Other than that it is a great mic, especially for the price.

First ill say that I love the mic.
After you get the distance down it sounds great, real warm and with no static
The only problem i have with it is that on the page it said it recorded at 24 bit with 96khz
While it only does 48khz and 16 bit.
Thought about complaining but it sounds good enough but i would recommend a pop filter
all and all great all around recording mic!

This microphone is great. The sound quality is fantastic and it is very sensitive. Make sure you have a quiet room! I sing in church and was asked to make a cd of the songs I have sung. I didn't know what I was doing but this mic made even me sound good! A good mic for a reasonable cost. Give it a try.

I use an Alesis Studio24 Mixer which has Phantom Power. This microphone sounded very warm, very quiet, and crystal clear. I was able to hear the wind blowing outside ( I have a very quiet home ). My boston terrier walked by me and was grunting, and I was able to hear her grunting through my headphones as if I was not listening through a Mic at all. For the money this is a great studio condenser mic.

As all of the others mention, the sound is great, especially for this price range. The only thing that kept it from 5 starts was the hit or miss drivers, which seem to only be half present on my win7sp1 system (there are 3 that install and the "audio device" one fails) but works well with all others

This mic is so sensitive that i hung it a few feet over an acoustic drum set and it picked up every squeak and rim shot bright and clear, and the actual pickup of the performance was like i had a board and mic kit! There is no reason that someone couldn't get a beautiful recording of an entire band with this.

I'm not sure if it's the machine, the cable, or the mic, but sometimes there is a hum. I've had to change 3 usb cables and when I do it stops the hum. Who knows. I'm going to try it on a different machine soon. When it works, it works great.

My friend is a rapper who is just starting out, he was using his regular PC microphone and i bought this one for him as a gift,

it's been a few months now and he didn't tell me about any problems that he had with it, the price is not bad and the quality is fairly good as well,

About the voice quality, not as well as i hoped but not bad either,

first let me say i ordered this on Monday and revived it on Friday( the same week) so it was extremely fast shipping especial for a product that was free shipping. when i plug this in and used it for Fruity loops and audacity the mic was low ..so you could barley hear anything. Plus it was static-e ..i don't no if it was because i was recording close to the computer over i didn't have studio monitors. so idk ..But its good ...I think my problems is i need to buy studio monitors. so when i do i will write another review..but overall its good
