USB-C Plug and Play Microphone for Podcasting, Streaming, Gaming, Vlogging & Recording on PC and Mac - Serene Blue

*Do note that I purchased on sale for 20 USD*High noise floor and suddenly too loud or quiet audio. Resolved by disabling automatic gain control in device properties.Stand is weighted for low center of gravity. Also has an opening for the wire to be routed through.Cable is durable and thick but still easy to bend. Has a velcro cable strap.Side knobs can be unscrewed to take microphone out the stand leaving threaded holes for mounting arms.Turning the gain knob during live audio recording will inevitably make noise.A solid microphone overall. 5/5

Es un buen micrófono, lo conseguí en oferta y la calidad del audio es considerablemente mejor a la de un micrófono barato o el de móvil, los materiales también se siente de buena calidad.Puntos negativos:-El material antideslizante en la base del micrófono no funciona, no agarra, se desliza.-Vi en varias reseñas antes de comprar que en algunas zonas el plástico del micrófono tenia manchas, en mi caso no fue la excepción.

Got this to work on some on the go podcasting and quick lesson videos for my guitar students. It worked well plugged into my smartphone. Didn't know it was possible just took the risk and voila! Would definitely buy again. The audio does improve. Don't expect Shure or Sennheiser quality but it does clean up the audio. Keep in mind the more you crank the volume the more you will get a distorted sound. Find that sweet spot. Mine is a little before middle. Think like a clock face I'm at 10:00.

Sadly I had to sell this to a friend--- even with a converter, this mic does not work unless you have a USB-C input on your computer, which my desktop does not have.

I ordered this to do voiceover on my videos but I had a small budget. I checked out the reviews and I gave it a try. It is fantastic and looks really stylish. The sound is unbelievably good even when recording from a distance. I am very happy with this and would recommend this to others

The first thing that stood out to me was that, while there is a headphone jack on the bottom of the mic, the mic does not support mic monitoring via the headphone jack. The headphone jack is only for system audio output. To me, that almost defeats the purpose of putting a jack there in the first place. That being said, I did not notice any static getting picked up from using the headphone jack.The design, while aesthetically pleasant, is plastic all around and includes some flaws in my opinion. The mic stand hugs the mic too close. Therefore, there is a very limited range of motion for the mic before the bottom hits the mount on one end, or the top hits the mount on the other end. In addition, the cables plugged into the base of the mic further restrict movement because moving the mic rubs the cables against the desk surface. While the mic is removable from the base, there’s no mounting hole on the bottom of the mic so there is no purpose to remove the mic from the base. The other aspect is the surface of the mic blemishes very easily. Mine arrived brand new with a number of surface blemishes that resemble oil stains on the mic. I tried wiping it down but the blemishes are non-removable and appear to be part of the plastic design.As far as features, it is very basic. The only other feature is a headphone volume button. That button doubles as a mute button, which takes some getting used to. The pickup pattern is fixed at cardoid. There’s no mic gain knob.Tip - although this is plug and play, you may need to adjust the mic volume on your PC. This is different from your speaker volume. Sometimes when you first plug in a new mic, it defaults to a really low setting, so your voice will be really soft compared to other people. This isn’t an issue with the mic- just open up “sound settings” (you can right click on the speaker icon on your taskbar or type “sound settings into the bottom left search bar on your PC), scroll past “output” and down to the spedal mic (under “input”), and under the device properties you can increase the mic volume.In summary, I find this to be a pretty basic streaming mic. Limited features and catering to a specific audience. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with this mic, it performs very well as a plug and play, don’t need to touch anything mic. For its intended purpose, it is definitely magnitudes better than any included mic you’d find built into a laptop. That being said, there’s limited built-in features and nothing really special or unique, aside from the pleasant design, to make this stand out from a crowded field of other mic options. I deducted a star because I find the price point (currently $70) to be high for what you get, and because of the design issue causing surface blemishes. I considered deducting two stars, but I give it props for the overall appearance and how it is light and portable.What’s in the box:(1) Mic and stand(2) USB/c to USB/c cable

The mic gets the job done, and it's stylish doing it too!One downside is in certain call programs, plugging in the mic would automatically change my sound settings to make the mic be a speaker or show up as a speaker (which does not work), causing me to have to go into the settings and reset them.The microphone works and sounds good though, and it has a nice knob on the front so you can control your gain!

unfortunately these really didn’t work for me. the base is SO wobbly and you can hear every tiny movement. i fear i wasted my money on these. terrible for podcasting :/ although they are pretty
