Strange But True

This is as good as all the positive reviews say it is. But I had a strange situation with the one I bought. All worked well the first two times I used it via USB. The third time the mic would not turn on. Eventually i discovered that the USB cable had stopped working. I knew because I had an old similar cable and the mic turned on immediately. I took it back to Adorama asking for a new cable. That baffled them. One part of the store could not tell another part of the store what to do. Ultimately a boss said "just give him a new mic." Silly. But that's what they did.

One mic works great, the other not at all :(

I ordered two of the Samson Q2U microphones. One worked perfectly from the first moment of use. The other has not worked at all. It turns on, and with difficulty I can get the computer to recognize it, but it will not record at all. I have tried it with both a PC and a Mac to make sure the problem wasn’t with my computer, but I’ve had the same issues no matter what. I’ve spent months reading different message boards and trying different things, hoping that this was resolvable but nothing works... seems to be a 50/50 chance whether the mic you receive will work.

Good mic , bad monitoring (after a few weeks)

Good quality mic, but after a few uses the monitoring functionality only outputs to the left side of the headphones. So audio passthrough is not great just coming from the one channel .

Amazing Microphone for both USB and XLR

Great Microphone, would recommend for anyone wanting great and simple sound quality. Although I have not used the XLR feature yet, I plan to in the future as I know it is higher quality from reviews I've seen online. The mute switch is really accessable, you can use the aux below to listen to music and talk in it (even listen to your voice to see whether or not it's working). You can fit all XLR, USB, and Aux into the mic and will use all of them correctly. The best part is the reduction of background noise. As someone who uses fans frequently, it's a breather to know while recording or talking on my mic, no one can hear my fan or AC or anything.

Great

Seemingly Great microphone that I'm learning how to stream with. I don't know much about audio so I can't tell you there but this is the one a youtuber told me to get instead of a condenser. I chose this one because I prefer to not have to be too loud but I don't want it to pick up my environment.

Great dynamic microphone for the price.

Great product for the price. I saw many reviews before buying it; had my doubts but in the end it was worth it. Grear environmental notice cancelling, solid materials, and great sound for being a budget microphone. Excellent purchase for beginners and great service. I can not complain.

First impressions with USB connection

Used it for a week. Overall I'm not too impressed with the quality for $69. I currently use it via a USB connection and it's not as clear as those who use it via XLR.

Flexibility, Quality build, and Good Sound

Wanted to try streaming with a Dynamic Microphone instead of my Blue Yeti and decided to try this one out. It works well both with XLR and USB and I've gotten positive feedback that my sound quality has improved. The build quality is good and I feel like it's picking up less background noises. Retiring my Blue Yeti in favor of this (I'll update this review if I run into any problem).

Microphone that competes with the Best for Cheaper Price

By PHILLIP E.

Great microphone.

Whether you're recording a podcast, live streaming, or hosting a video call, the Q2U has you covered. With both USB and XLR connectivity, it easily connects to any device and allows you to get started recording quickly. And with a mic clip, desktop tripod stand, windscreen, and all the necessary cables included, you'll have everything you need in one convenient package. Give your audio a boost and keep your audience engaged with the Q2U.

• Great for: Work From Home, Content Creation, Audio for Video, Education

Broadcast Like a Pro
The Q2U dynamic capsule has a wide frequency response tailored for capturing your voice, delivering the perfect balance of low-end warmth and mid-range clarity. The microphone is less sensitive to background noise and other distracting sounds, making the Q2U great for recording in untreated rooms while still delivering studio-quality sound.

Focused Sound
The Q2U dynamic microphone is designed to capture clear and accurate sound, thanks to its cardioid (unidirectional) polar pattern. This pattern focuses the microphone's pickup on the sound coming from directly in front of the mic, while rejecting noise from the rear and sides. This helps to minimize ambient or room noise, ensuring that your recordings are as clean and distraction-free as possible.

Best of Both Worlds
Q2U is the ideal microphone choice for any podcaster, especially if you're frequently on-the-go or building a podcast studio on a budget. Onboard, high-quality analog-to-digital converters provide excellent audio reproduction when connecting directly to a computer or mobile device via USB. Alternatively, it can be plugged directly into a mixer or audio interface with an XLR cable. You can also use both connections simultaneously for recording a live event or performance.

Total Control of Your Sound
The 1/8" (3.5mm) zero-latency headphone output with level control lets you directly monitor the audio you're recording without any delay, and a microphone mute switch provides complete control during your projects.

Accessories Included
The Q2U comes with a desktop tripod stand and mic clip for optimal placement when recording. A windscreen is also provided to minimize wind noise and plosives. A USB cable and XLR cable complete the Q2U pack, giving you everything you need to get started on your next project.

One Mic for Stage, Studio and On-The-Go
With the convenience of digital and analog audio capture in one dynamic microphone, and broadcast quality sound, the Q2U is versatile and the first choice for home studio recording, content creators, as well as stage performance.

Made for Streaming
Quality video starts with quality audio. Ensure your viewers catch everything you say clearly. The unidirectional pickup pattern focuses audio pickup to what is in front of the mic.
