Samson Go Mic Portable USB Condenser Microphone

Go Mic Goes Where You Go.

Further expanding on its diverse line of USB microphones, Samson introduces Go Mic, a portable recording microphone that clips to your laptop. Go Mic is perfect for recording music, podcasts or field recording, but it also makes a great solution for use with voice recognition software, iChat, web casting and even Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). Because of its custom, compact design, the Go Mic can clip right onto your laptop or sit unobtrusively on your desk. Plug and play operation also means it's completely compatible with a Mac OS or Windows, with no drivers required.

High-quality components and meticulous engineering ensure the Go Mic offers remarkably clear, professional audio reproduction. Thanks to its switchable cardioid and omni polar patterns, you can pick whichever pattern is more appropriate for your specific situation. Use the tightly focused cardioid pickup pattern when recording a podcast, acoustic guitar or vocals. Or use the omnidirectional pattern to capture the entire room, whether you're jamming with your band, webcasting with a group or conducting an online meeting with multiple members in a single location. Plus, with a frequency response of 20Hz - 18kHz and a resolution of 16-bit/44.1kHz, you can be sure you're getting professional audio specs in a compact, multi-purpose design.

Go Mic is perfect for anyone who wants to make great recordings on a computer. And no matter where you go to record, Go Mic goes with you.

Musical Maestro Whether you're a singer/songwriter recording vocals and acoustic guitar, or a band looking to capture the room sound of a jam right on your computer, Go Mic will make sure you don't miss a note.

Whatever the application, Go Mic can help you take your music to the next level.

I love this mic sooooo much

October 22, 2016

style: MicrophoneVerified Purchase

I love this mic sooooo much. It so cute, but packs great sound quality. I've owned several budget mics, and I would say this is the best thing before you decide to make the move up to something like the Yeti.
Firstly, you have the three settings. I usually use the second one because it cancels the most noise, but having the choice is great.
Then theres the fact that its so portable. It comes with a neat pouch that you can put the mic and cords in.
I paired the mic with a Dragonpad pop filter and stand for a setup that's around $60.

Note- you can even use this mic with android(what I record with on the go)!!! Of course, you would have to get an OTG cord(they're on amazon and ebay for around $5) and make sure your phone can handle the input. I use hi-qu, and its ready to record as soon as I plug into my phone without actually buying that weird interface app that $6.99. Just a hint for those who are like me and would sometimes rather record on your phone.

Samson does it again on the cheap...

February 23, 2016

style: MicrophoneVerified Purchase

Just an incredible deal! This thing has a clarity that even Blue's Snowflake and Yeti can't acheive on voices, and the clever "stand"/case is a feat of engineering. The base is not some flimsy plastic that won't stay put: it's a solid piece of metal that will serve to hold the thing whereever you want, just be careful the USB cord doesn't strain it. The compact zipper case can fit in a pocket...only caveat is that the case doesn't hold the USB mini cable (included)...it would be nice to have a place for that, but since USB has become so ubiquitous, most of us have USB cables of all types around the office and house and so u almost don't even need one most of the time...

If you need a good mic for video/audio conferencing or podcasting, or for recording quick song ideas or music, look no further. This thing fits the bill at less than half the price of the nearest competitor, and does it better, IMO, in a better package. (and I've owned the Blue snowball and the Yeti).

Using with headphones as a gaming "headset"

January 15, 2017

style: MicrophoneVerified Purchase

Using this in addition to an Audiotechnica ATH-M50X as a gaming headset. It works very well and has a 3.5mm jack to plug your headphones in where you can hear yourself talk over the mic which is nice. It can also be used without headphones, people understand me fine in directional mode even when using loud PC speakers.

There's a bit of feedback when a cell phone is near. Not sure if this is an issue with all mics, or just this one. Maybe since it's so small it isn't shielded as well as it could be if it were larger.

Overall this thing as been great. Would buy again and would recommend.

Songwriters' Perspective

January 27, 2012

style: MicrophoneVerified Purchase

There are a lot of great reviews here already, which prompted me to purchase this mic, but it seemed the number of reviews for my particular use were lacking, so here's another review from a singer-songwriter perspective.

Background: I have been playing music and writing songs for years, and I'm a gearhead so I already own tons of recording equipment in all shapes and sizes. You name a recording interface, I've probably owned it at some point, and I currently have a fully functional pc recording setup with a rackmounted pc and USB interface.
That being said, I can't carry my setup around in my pocket. Inspiration can strike at anytime, and this mic is so small that I can put it in the case and fit it in my pocket with my cellphone and keys. The pics offer no perspective on how small it really is, but to be sure, this thing is TINY.
I use REAPER as my DAW, and having used so many interfaces, I've done a fair share of troubleshooting to get devices to be recognized and function as they should, but this mic is truly plug-n-play. The mic has the omni switch on the side, which is a great feature and makes a world of difference depending on your application. The mic is super hot, and picks up sound beautifully in both modes. My intention was to have a small mic to plug in and record rough versions of "in progress" material, but just for kicks I plugged some earbuds into the headphone out to check out the direct monitoring. It works as advertised, but what I did not realize is that the pc sees the Go Mic as a mic input AND an audio output, so the headphone out can be used to monitor the WET signal from the DAW, which is GREAT news, since I like a little reverb and compression whenever possible, and it's nice to be able to eq to my taste. I add these FX in the chain so that I'm still recording just the dry signal from the mic, but I get to hear it in real time with whatever EQ and effects I like. I experienced no latency, but USB is USB, so any latency would be the fault of the computer rather than the mic anyhow.
Depending on the environment you're recording in and on your proficiency in the post production department,it's easily possible to get high quality tracks using this mic. If someone says otherwise, it's either because they own much more expensive mics, whose existence they need to justify, or because they don't know what they're doing. This is not a $1k ribbon mic, but it does stand up to several mics all the way up to the $200 range.
This mic sounds great, has an impressive form factor, and once you factor in the crazy low price, you really can't go wrong here. If it were lost or stolen, I'd order another one immediately without hesitation.

This is a plug and play mic. For such a great price you can easily record podcasts or commentaries for Youtube videos. Having done both of those with this mic, I am very pleased with the sound quality that comes out of this small compact mic. I am able to use it with my Windows machine, as well as my Macbook.

I use this with a free program Audacity and OBS. You can make presets for room noise and how much the mic will pic up. The mic has different setting allowing you to pick up ambient noise or just one side of the mic, for when you are recording by yourself. The -10 db is great for when you might have noise in the background, because it picks up sound in closer proximity to the mic.

One of the best price purchases for someone who wants a good quality recording device, that can plug it in and immediately get to work.

mic started malfunctioning and making a terrible noise right after the return period expired, very unhappy with the product. Paid for a month of an okay sounding mic.
