From Beginning to End... With One Mic.

The G-Track Pro is a USB microphone designed to provide the high audio quality to podcasters, streamers, singer/songwriters and content creators. The dual 1" condenser capsules capture all the detail and nuance of your voice elevating the quality of your recording, live stream or broadcast. The G-Track Pro combines 24-bit, 96kHz digital recording resolution with the flexibility of three mic pickup pattens and a 1/4" audio input for professional sounding recordings, no matter the application.

More Than a Mic

The G-Track Pro is more than just a USB microphone. It's also a high-quality audio interface via a standard 1/4" instrument input, you can connect a guitar, bass, keyboard or any line level device. Singer/songwriters can quickly capture vocal and instrument performances simultaneously, or podcasters can add a sub-mixer to record additional hosts and/or guests.


Cardioid Pickup Pattern This pattern is most sensitive to sound coming from directly in front of the mic, while rejecting sound coming from behind the mic. This is great for streaming, podcasting or vocal performances.	Omnidirectional Pickup Pattern Picks up sound equally from all directions – in front of the mic, behind the mic, off to the sides, etc. This pattern is great for recording a number of people around a single microphone, like a multi-person podcast.	Figure-8 or Bidirectional Pickup Pattern Picks up sound directly in front and back of the mic, while rejecting the sound on the left and right sides. This setting can be used for capturing two performers singing a duet or a cross-table interview.

Incredible Microphone for Final Cut Pro X users

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2018

Size: untVerified Purchase

I initially bought the Fifine K670 for all the positive reviews, but after using it in Final Cut Pro X I found the volume to low to be useable. Even turning the Fifine mic and FCPX gain to max I would still have to do a bit more gain in the post voiceover audio. I went back to researching and came across the Samson, which also had great reviews. So I returned the Fifine and ordered this mic. The first time I hooked up the Samson and used it in FCPX I was blown away. Even with the mic gain only 25% there was plenty of volume in the FCPX voiceover with no additional gain needed in post. The Samson mic is three times more expensive, but for the features and the fact it works great, this microphone is totally worth it. And considering the professional quality of this Samson G-Track Pro, it's great heavy duty build and design, this thing is a great investment.

For those wondering what the actual weight of the microphone alone is, it is 1lb 11oz or 1.7lbs. The reason bring it up is because I wanted to mount this on a Blue Compass Premium Tube-Style boom arm on my desk and the limit for a mic and pop filter is 2.4lbs so I was worried. I could not find any details on just the weight of the microphone alone. I took a chance and it worked out. I have the microphone mounted in the Blue Compass arm and it works perfect with zero weight issues. This is an awesome setup and something that is going to last for a long time.

Awesome condenser mic for a good price

Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2019

Size: untVerified Purchase

After using headsets for more than a decade, I figured it was time to give my setup an upgrade and went with a proper studio mic. The quality on this thing is very good and makes my voice sound sultry smooth. Although I'm not very musically gifted, the audio interface integrated into the mic is a massive plus for anyone looking to get into recording or editing. No substitute for a proper studio setup, but it's a good start for anyone that can't afford the big toys.

After spending some time shopping around and comparing sound quality from other similar mics (Blue Yeti, Hyper X, Razer, etc), I found this mic to have the best sound for my tastes. Although it is more pricey than a majority of it's competitors, you get a very high quality and very durable feeling mic. Plus, the audio interface alone makes this an obvious winner compared to others in this price range.

Only downsides I can really say are that this thing is more than a bit heavy. If you're using a boom setup like I am, make sure the arm can support at least 5 lbs without folding.
Being a condenser mic, I highly recommend getting a shock mount and a pop filter as well because this thing is crazy sensitive and will easily pick up vibrations from typing on a keyboard or even moving the mouse around.
If you're buying this mic for gaming like I have, make sure to spend some time messing with the sensitivity. It takes a bit to find a setting that won't pick up every little keyboard clack.

Don't buy if you absolutely need mic stand hookup

Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2018

Size: untVerified Purchase

I bought this mic for streaming and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed in this company. It arrived without the mic stand adapter, which is essential (there's no way to rig it to a stand otherwise) for connecting to a stand/arm. I tried contacting customer support multiple times and after weeks of no response, I'm reluctantly returning this and will instead save up for the shure SM7B.

The mic itself sounds great. The issue for me is there's too much vibration/keyboard noise to keep it on my desk. My keyboard comes through way more than I want and that was the whole point for me to buy this mic in the first place. After reading other reviews I saw that others had the same problem but that they were able to resolve it by contacting support. I had no such luck, unfortunately.

If that's not an issue for you then I would definitely recommend getting this mic. It was super easy to set up (literally just plugged in and it worked).

Very happy with the mic.

Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2019

Size: untVerified Purchase

The Good - I purchased this mic after my built-in headphone mic died on me. After some typical internet searching, I settled on the Samson G-Track Pro because it was described as, "the Yeti killer." I have to say I am not disappointed. Strictly from a non-technical pov, the audio quality from my mic testing with Audacity was excellent. Much better than the Logitech mic I had. When gaming, my friends all say the audio quality is a huge improvement on my previous mic.

The Bad - Samson does not specifically list a boom arm and shock mount for the G Track Pro, although the Samson MBA38 boom arm and Samson SP04 shock mount are compatible with the original G Track (non-pro version). Due to the weight of the mic, I didn't want to waste $20 on a cheap boom only to have it collapse on me, so I wanted to buy a Samson product made especially for the G Track Pro. Alas, Samson does not list and accessories that are compatible with the Pro version. However, after some additional research I discovered that, indeed the MBA38 and SP04 were compatible as long as you purchased a separate $10 adapter for it.

Overall I'm very happy with the mic and accessories (admittedly I did not buy the accesories on Amazon).

Had to Return It and Didn't Want a New One

Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019

Size: untVerified Purchase

I had two problems with this microphone. First, it does not come with an adapter to connect it to a microphone stand. According to some of the reviews and question answers, some people received a mic adapter and others did not. Mine did not come with an adapter. But I called the folks at Samson and they sent me one without charge and it arrived within 7 days. So after that delay, I finally started using it just to test it. In about 20 minutes of testing it, it stopped working completely 5 separate times. When it stopped, I had to unplug the usb cable and plug it back in. A few minutes later, same thing happened again. Fifth time was it, so I returned it and will keep looking for another microphone.

Awesome mic

Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2018

Size: untVerified Purchase

The sound of this mic is absolutely awesome. It connects without any drivers, has multiple pick up patterns and the sensitivity is perfect because I can keep the gain low but still have stellar pickup. The fact that it has in instrument/line interface and you can listen to the audio that was just recorded through the zero latency headphone monitor jack (3.5mm) makes this the one usb mice to judge the rest by. If you want a USB mic this is it. The weight of this mic has to be in lbs. Built to last!

The best USB mic for under £150

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 15, 2019

Size: untVerified Purchase

Iv owned most of the popular USB mic's commonly used by streamers, including the Yeti, Yeti Nano and Rode NT. All of these are great microphones but none were perfect. There were features from all of them that I loved but there was no single mic that rolled all those great features into a single unit, until now!

I picked up the Samson G-Track Pro after a recommendation and I can confidently say it's the best USB mic I have personally ever used. It's a little on the pricey side but as an investment it's worth every single penny. Everything you need is on the mic with absolutely no need for software to controll settings.

The front of the mic is where the magic happens with the following controlls:
- 3 way polar pattern switch (figure 8, cardioid & omnidirectional).
- Mono / stereo switch.
- Mute button with LED alert.
- Microphone volume (gain).
- Instrument volume (¼" input).
- Headphone volume.

On the rear of the mic are the following:
- Monitor on / off switch.
- ⅛" headphone input.
- ¼" instrument input.

The body of both the microphone are entirely metal with a very premium feel. It is quite heavy at 1.6kg however I feel that weight is an important factor, especially for those who will be using it as a desktop microphone. The stand is nice,heavy and flat and will stay exactly where you put it which was the biggest issue with the Rode NT due to its plastic tripod style design. The stand also uses permanent grip hinges which allows full, secure adjustment without manually needing to adjust screw caps in order to rotate the mic into a preferable position. This makes quick adjustments much easier than the others which is very useful whilst in the middle of a stream.

The buttons and potentiometers all feel perfect too. Some reviewer's have mentioned that they feel "sloppy" however I found the complete opposite. The pots all had lovely smooth movement making it very easy to make smaller adjustments unlike others which have much tighter pots. The mute button does not click when you turn it on or off which I preferred as click type buttons often require more pressure and can move the mic if you don't hold it whilst pressing. This is not an issue with the G-Track Pro, the button is nice and easy to push but not too easy that you would press it accidentally. The LED light above the button also changes colour to alert you that mute is enabled. The slide switches on the device are also perfect and sit firmly in their selected positions. One of the biggest issues I had with the Yeti Nano was that I would keep accidentally changing the polar pattern every time I tried to adjust its position.

Specifications:
- Dual back electret condenser.
- 50Hz-60Hz frequency response.
- 96kHz sample rate.
- +6dB FS/PA sensitivity (all polar patterns).
- 25mm diaghragm width, 3 micron diaphragm thickness.

Another great thing to mention is the USB type B connection on the base of the mic. This nice and chunky connection in my opinion is far superior to the micro USB type connection found on the Yeti's. I can't even count the amount of times I have had power issues with the Yeti due to how loose and sloppy the micro USB would get after a while.

There is no software included with this mic, everything you need is on the unit, making this really quick and easy to setup without needing to download and create accounts with softwares in order to access necessary features.

Verdict:
If you are looking for a premium quality mic, are willing to invest £150 and want something that can handle any job you need it for then look no further. Samson has taken everything good from all it's competitors, removed everything bad and mixed it all up into one perfect hybrid device. Buy it and never look back.

Mr. Daniel J. Walker

Great microphone especially for the price, but be mindful of its few quirks.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 8, 2019

Size: untVerified Purchase

The Samson G-Track Pro really is a fantastic microphone for the money and I was very pleased to have purchased it while it was on offer. It is important to understand the limitations presented by this equipment before you purchase it however, so i'll start with the negatives:

- It's a condenser microphone, so if you're using this for gaming it is going to pick up any background noise like keyboard and mouse clicking, even when picking up sound in the cardioid pattern. There are steps you can take to reduce this but it's hard to eliminate entirely.
- The cable that comes with the microphone is the cause of a lot of the 'problems' experienced when using the microphone for the first time. Do yourself a favour and buy a good quality USB-B cable at the time of purchase, and throw out the one supplied by Samson.
- The microphone can behave erratically if your input and output sample rates are not the same, and they seem to be different by default, so these need altering in your sound settings.

Now for the good stuff:
- The sound quality to price ratio on this mic is outstanding. Not the perfect microphone by any stretch but for less than £150 it's an absolute gem.
- The built in preamp and diversity of settings makes this a very flexible microphone. Add to this that all the controls are on the microphone itself in the form of switches or knobs and you understand why it's a pleasure to use.
- It's a tank. The G-Track Pro is on the list of my top 5 things to use in self-defence in the event of a home invasion, and I'll still be able to podcast about the experience afterwards. The build quality is so good that the only complaint I can find is that the knobs are a bit wobbly which, lets face it, is not a problem.
- It's Night Rider black, so looks amazing wherever you use it

I highly recommend this microphone to anyone looking to make the step up from entry level recording equipment. I can confidently say I'll be using this mic for quite some time. I've given it a 4* rating because Samson are supplying a terrible USB cable with the product.

Hope this helped.

The Best USB Microphone I've Ever Used

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 14, 2018

Size: untVerified Purchase

The Samson G-Track Pro is undoubtedly one of the best USB Microphones that I have ever had the pleasure of using. As an Audio Engineer, I have usually been one to avoid the use of USB Microphones in comparison to their XLR brethren, however this is the microphone that made me reconsider this preference. Not only is it super convenient with its plug and play operation (both windows and mac, I've yet to test it with linux), the audio it captures (I used the Cardioid pattern), is bright, with excellent clarity for a microphone in this price range (I played with recording at different sample rates and bit depths too and it sounds even more detailed the higher sample rate and bit depth) . The on board latency free monitoring (which can be turned on and off), works as advertised too. I purchased this to be used as my main podcasting microphone, and so far it has simply exceeded expectations. If you're a streamer, podcaster or budding musician, this is an awesome microphone to start off with.

No Shockmount=No Boom Arm.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 21, 2020

Size: untVerified Purchase

Is not Ideal the right mic for streaming/gaming if you don't use instruments because it makes it overpriced and there might be some problems with Mounting Options:
1. Desktop (includes desk stand)
-a bit heavy ( the stand is heavy not the mic itself) and takes space from your desk so its like in middle between keyboard and mouse and might be a problem if you have small desk.
2. Shock-mount
-you need a Samson SASP04 Shock Mount for G-Track Pro(if you find one make sure the sellers confirms is compatible with Pro, the G-Track >>PRO <<
-the SASP04 Shock Mount is hard to find, here in UK there isnt and almost cost half price of the mic with because of Shipping from somewere else and might take a month or longer to recieve.
I've tried the Rycote 044903(Universal Shock Mount for Large Mic) and it doesnt fit.
3.Boom Arm
- the mic isnt that heavy but I would advice a boom arm thats sturdy enough and not the cheapest boom arm but to use have this microphone on a boom arm you need the shockmount or the adaptor or maybe both.
So personally for me if I knew how hard is to get a shock mount then I wouldnt bought this.
If you fine with desk stand then buy it but dont change your mind in future only if there will be shock mount available.

Excellent sound quality, and very solid!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 25, 2020

Size: untVerified Purchase

I was looking for a good microphone for the PC which would work for both streaming, video work and for skype. I was considering a sennheiser SP-series desk mike, and then I thought about going upmarket even further. I've used a blue yeti, a Sennheiser SP-20 and a few other boom mikes as well as the mikes you get in logitech and microsoft webcams.

I'll say that the mike you get in, say, the C910 / C920 webcams is almost as good as a professional quality mike now. There's so much processing in webcams nowadays that it's almost not worth going for a really expensive mike unless you're doing interview work, or laying down studio tracks. For skype and streaming, a modern webcam is all you need.

So, why consider one of these Samson G-Track Pros? Well, the sound quality is very good. I've tested the sound of my voice and music through this and a few other mikes, and it's definitely the best quality mike I've got, and I'd say it edges out the blue yeti in some of the bass response. But it's not mind-blowingly better than the new Logitech webcam for most things.

Where the Samson excels is in two areas:
* Controls
* Headphone jack.

You see, this isn't just a microphone, it's also a sound card! Yep, let me say that again: When you plug the Samson G-Track Pro into your PC, it pops up not just as an audio input device, but also an audio OUTPUT device. And the reason why? Streaming and monitoring!

When you're streaming, you often need to be able to hear the volume of your voice, and the game you're playing. However, the people watching will be able to hear the game through the desktop capture. So if you're playing sounds through the PC's speakers, the mike will pick it up and people watching will get echo. If you're monitoring your stream with a lag, say like what Twitch does, you can get horrible "ring-around" where you hear your own voice a few seconds after you say it, coming out of the Twitch dashboard, which then gets echoed a few seconds later.... until the whole thing is a squealing screaming mess.

The Samson G-Track has a little headphone port on the back. You can pop in a couple of in-ear monitors or shielded headphones, and have the PC select the Samson as the speaker. Now, the game is being sent to your ears through your headphones. "Why not just use the headphone jack on the PC?" I hear you ask. Good Question... It's because the Samson also mixes the input from your microphone into the stream and plays it back into your ears LIVE. You can alter the volumes of the PC and microphone right there on the microphone itself, to get the right balance. Then, you can monitor yourself without the audience hearing an echo.

The next bonus for streamers is a little LED on the front. Normally green, it flashes red when you get too loud and would cause distortion. This helps you set the volume nicely too.. If you can talk without the LED going red very often, you're nice and clear to the listeners.

Now, moving away from streaming into the interviewing space, the microphone allows you to select from several pickup modes. Cardiod is good for streaming, omni is good for rooms full of people and noise, but Figure-8 is perferct for when you have two people either side of the microphone in an interview situation. You can also use the modes to alter the 'sound' of the microphone to suit your surroundings if, say, there's lots of echo, or if you move around a lot.

Finally, for musicians, there's a guitar 3.5mm auxilliary input. Like the microphone, it lets you connect instruments into the mike directly, so when you're singing the computer doesn't pick up the sounds coming from an amp which may be behind or below the mike, and produce a muddy sound. The input is direct, and you can separate the track out for easier recording.

OK, so I think it's pretty clear from this, don't buy this is you're expecting your voice to suddenly sound like Richard Burton. And don't expect this microphone to require you to do away with input EQ processing. You'll still need to do it, and you'll still sound like you. But it WILL be better than a condenser mic in a webcam (if only just).

Where this mike excels is in how much easier and better it makes it for streamers, interviewers and musicians.

Now, for the bad part. The mike is quite heavy. I was surprised by how solid it it, including the base. That makes it tricky to find a boom arm to fit it, most assume much lighter mikes, and you get a 'droop' when you use this in an anglepoise boom. Samson's own range of boom arms even claim compatibility but only some work. Similarly shock mounts are hit and miss. SP01 obscures the buttons, so go for the SP04. But those'll set you back another £100 or more for the two.

And finally, I couldn't get this mike to work on my laptop. The port just couldn't provide enough juice I don't think. The mike would flash alternately green-orange-green-orange. When I plugged it into the PC, though, it worked fine. Given that I wanted it for the PC, that's not a problem for me, but if you have an older laptop, or a 'light' laptop, you might find it doesn't work properly. Of course Amazon's returns policy is excellent, so if it doesn't work it's not a problem.
