Comment on Stand Alone Microphone for PC Computer Laptop Notebook, VOIP, w/noise canceling by Ruga.
Fantastic! Yet…,
Alrighty kids, lets get down to business.
This microphone is a great deal. I’m willing to bet that you’re not going to find a microphone that is going to give you this sound quality for this cheap anywhere else. Sound quality is great, definitely better than most headset microphones (and it doesn’t pick up breathing noises, always a bonus)and desktop microphones in the 10-25 dollar range. It’s pretty sleek looking, and it does cut out background noise pretty well. However, I will note that it is INCREDIBLY light, which isn’t necessarily a negative, but that means that it does move a bit more, which means a bit more noise when you’re recording if you bump it. The other thing is that it doesn’t seem to sit very securely in the stand, but once again, don’t be tossing it around, and it should be great. Arrived three days earlier than it was originally supposed to, so I was very impressed on that front as well.
Also no one else seemed to mention this, but this is a 3.5mm jack microphone, not a USB. I know I was wondering when I ordered it as it’s not listed anywhere.
