Samson C01U Pro USB Large Diaphragm Studio Condenser Microphone Mic+Tripod Stand

This mic works great! Best USB mic I have ever used. Works well as a room mic for drums. I have used it to record vocals, but it isn't the best for that. It sounds a little bit muddy, and cuts out. However, for just talking it sounds good. It also records bass guitar very well. Sounds crisp and has good bass accuracy. However, it isn't quite cut out for electric guitar--just doesn't sound right. Acoustic guitar sounds great though. It's also very easy to use and quite durable, all metal (except for the little stand thing). Overall, I would definitely recommend as an all around mic. I use it all the time in demos or video calls. It's not quite professional quality though.

good mic loved it

Mic picks up great details while having good overall noise suppression. Headphone amp is a good compliment providing feedback on mic levels and sound. Stand is ok but allows sound to travel into mic. That is not a problem if the user does not make any contact with the mic stand.

Wanting to break into voice acting, this microphone is perfect. It’s a great budget option and I was surprised by just how little latency there was! I usually don’t like hearing myself while I’m speaking as it’s hard to concentrate, I found out this is because of the latency. But plugging headphones into this microphone, and it feels like I’m hearing with my bare ears and not through a microphone!The build quality is great, the Microphone feels sturdy. My only complaint would be the tripod stand. While stable, I feel like some modifications could be made. However with the value of the microphone itself, it’s understandable that they wouldn’t make too quality a stand, especially since most people will mount theirs to a boom arm anyways.

Gracias

It is a mic, that of which it does well enough in that department. The headphone jack right on the front is quite useful and handy, it outputs a bit on the loud side not going to lie, not necessarily a bad thing however, just something to keep in mind. It only has one mode (supercardioid) which is good, but this means that you have to be speaking rather directly in front of it to pick up your voice properly enough, otherwise It'll sound a bit off literally, otherwise it does a stellar job when you are speaking into it at the optimal angle. Overall for only barely over $50 this mic is a good steal imo, I'd recommend if you need something to start out with content creation or whatnot, I dare say it would be good enough for a podcast setting as well, just be sure to get a on mic pop filter cause if you have the input gain set above 85 (on Windows 10 anyhow), if you're loud enough close to the mic or blow into it, it will peak so be aware of that.

I LOVE this mic. Its fairly inexpensive compared to the competition and the sound quality is pretty great for streaming on twitch like I do. I spend countless hours tweaking mic settings and it sounds perfect! Im sure id prefer an SM7B or an XLR but this mic is perfect for my price right now and I enjoy the quality.

As soon as I plugged it in everyone told me I sound like a god, it's LITTERALY so good at recording sound that there has been no other alternative for me. I've been using this thing for years now and I've had little to no issue sound wise with it.. hoooowever, the stand it sits on, leaves more to be desired, the mic is so heavy it often looses balance and topples over more than a few times, you have to often take time to make sure it's well situated before you do whatever it is you are about to do on the computer. And God help you if you bang on the table out of frustration, this thing is heavy so if it lands say.. on your crotch like it did with me one fateful night, you'll more than likely need an ice pack lol!
