I bought the microphone with the cord after two (2) wireless microphone purchases. There is no lag time with the wired microphone.

I bought this microphone to further enhance my Rock Band experience. I was not disappointed. It kept in tune well (which was a problem I saw with other microphones) and was light enough to not be a burden of any kind. I don't mind that it is not wireless, since I wouldn't move around much anyways. Also, the fact that it doesn't have buttons didn't bother me, mainly because I don't mind using a controller to navigate. I do think it could have been packaged better, but I don't fault the microphone for it. Overall, a very simplistic, yet functional, design that works well.

The microphones that I ordered look just like the ones that came with the Rock Band 2 game. I bought 2 extra microphones because I bought the Beatles Rock Band game and to do the 2 part harmony you need 3 microphones. What I am a little annoyed with is the fact that you need an adapter to plug in the 3rd microphone which I don't have and now have to go buy. Otherwise they work just fine. We are happy with it so far...

I got this microphone after my microphone that came with Rock Band fell apart (the wire became loose at the microphone). I like it better than the original. It is a little more sensitive so you don't have to have it right next to your mouth and easier to handle as it is shorter. I am really surprised that it cost so little and works so well.

I got this microphone for an extra singer on Beatles Rock Band wii. It works just as good as the original and it's fairly cheap. It arrived quickly and it definitely enhances my Beatle Rock Band experience. Thank you!

Works great!

Another cool thing, even if a song doesn't have "harmony" (parts for more than one singer) you can still do fake-harmony as all mics plugged in remain active. However, the back-up singers will not be rated and will actually mess with the lead as the game doesn't differentiate what mic is being used for lead UNLESS there actually is a harmony part. Meaning = if you're just singing to party, you can use all three mics on any song and they'll all just be treated as lead. Pretty cool when you have a room full of mic hogs around the house like we do. lol It's just like when people would gang up all on one mic during a song, but now they actually feel like rock stars having their own mics. For this reason, we just always keep all three mics plugged in and anyone can just pick one up and join in. Just don't expect a good score ;-)

I bought 4 of these Mic's for use playing Rock Band 3. So far, so good? While this Mic is not the best USB Mic for sound quality, I believe it to be able to handle the abuse better than the higher performing Mic's like the Logitech's. This is important in Rock Band, since the Mic doubles as a Cow Bell/Tambourine/Hand Clap in game play. In time all Mic's will fail with this kind of abuse, knowing this, I searched the web for the cheapest Mic's made for Rock Band or Guitar Hero & Amazon Delivered!

I was initially worried that this microphone would not be compatible with our Wii Beatles' Rock Band game, but it works great with our system and the kids love it!
Now we can have three vocalists, along with the guitar players and drummer. It makes for much more fun when more people can join in the performance. I recommend this microphone with the highest confidence that your family will love it too!

This product was awful, we bought it for Rockband on PS3 and it did not work at all. We plugged it into both USB slots and it did not pick up sound at all from either of them. This microphone is completely non functional for at least the PS3 versions of Rockband, including Rockband, Rockband 2, Rockband: The Beatles, Rockband: Metal Track Pack, Rockband: Track Pack 2, and Rockband: Greenday. I will never buy from this seller again. It was a waste of money.

This mic is excellent! We thought it didn't work on our Wii, but we tried it on the computer and it was working. So we plugged it directly into the Wii before powering up and made sure the Wii mote was powered up and it worked perfectly. I'm glad we tried a few things before returning it!
