Questions & Answers

Frances F : How close does one have to be to the microphone for it to pick up & transmit well?PHILIP A R : Only used it close it close up, but the results were goodEd K : I use it for voice recognition and I am usually 8-20" away. It works great for me. I can't comment on playback quality because I don't listen to the recording.Malcolm R : I clip the mic to the top of my Laptop display to record spoken audio for use in web-based training. So, it is approximately 12 inches from me. The mic works very well for this purpose and I can certainly recommend it. I don't know of anything better at that price.JEREMY M : I bought this to carry with me when I travel. Other than testing to see it work, I have yet to use it. When I connected it and flipped it to my laptop screen, the levels seemed to be fine 12"-18" away. Again, I did not do any recording or app usage so i cannot attest to ambiance.CAROLINE C : Use this microphone to record sound to court reporting software which audiosyncs the transcript. Counsel and the witness sit around the conference table and mic picks up really well. I like that you can clip onto the computer or place on the table. My son likes this mic when playing games on the computer, of course, he is sitting in front of it and speaking with his friend over the internet through the mic. No batteries needed which is a plus.MICHAEL B : Mine is always 3 feet from me--on a wall. As the pattern is cardioid, it is very directional (when set as such). People say my voice is very loud and clear--love this microphone.Victor C : When I set it on - 10db for VO recordings I am usually about 10" away and speak across the mic not into it. For all other uses I have it on cardioid and have the mic about 3 feet away. I would think it would have no problem picking up voice in an average room. I have been pleased with the mic and would recommend it.VICTORIA C : Not close it picks up really well. It's about the same as the microphone on your computer. You can stand back from it and it will pick it up as long as the room is quiet
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?Bassam A : This little fellow looked nice and i needed a small good looking computer mic for varies purposes

Just OK

This Mic does the job, but it is too small to get it stabilized.

Compact quality and easy to use!

I got this mic to play with on my MacBook Pro. I want to make more video's and realized that while the mic on the Mac is OK, there are better options! Duh! This is easy to use, flexible, works with every program I might use it with and according to friends who have listened to samples, it sounds great!
