Labtec Verse 704 USB Stand-up Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a very good mic for general desktop use. However, the electret element is too cheap and tinny for serious recording.
I suggest performing a simple mod to replace the element with any other good pc microphone. Open the mic stem, remove the electret element, and replace it with a $.99 1/8in phono jack. Now you can plug your best pc microphone into it, and it will sound better than ever. As a matter of fact, it sounds way better than any USB pod I've used!!!
I use it with Visual Communicator pro and the microphone that comes in the box. My presentations sound like commercial quality.

Labtec VERSE 534 MIC NCAT W/ MUT ( 980183-0403 ) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I sang using several mics, including CyberAcoustics, Plantronics, a Samson USB dynamic mic, and a Tascam mixer using a condensor mic. Tascam's software had major problems and I had to return this and the condensor mic.The Samson USB was superior, but it was triple the price, required a lot of voice volume, and had other difficulties.

The Labtec was the only one of the PC mics that somewhat captured my singing. The Plantronics sounded nice for voice, but not for singing.

Pluses--good price, captured my singing style well.

Weaknesses--Doesn't capture bass (but I doubt that my sound card too), doesn't capture higher treble.

MXL USB006 USB Cardioid Condenser Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this microphone to record voiceover narration for a video.There are points where there will only be narration, and no music or background audio.

Although it sounds pretty good for a USB mic, in that it gives a rich, faithful reproduction, there is a noticeable pitch generated by the microphone itself.This self-noise is audible during quiet moments or even when speech is recorded, if you listen carefully.On the plus side, it does come with a nifty case, desktop tripod and has hardware gain control with three settings.It worked right out of the box with my Mac, so no problems in the compatibility department.

I was poking around to make myself feel better about buying this microphone over the popular Samson C01U and Snowball, and came across a review of all of these microphones, including the new Rode Podcaster, pitted against each other.The reviewer noted a distinct B-natural pitch from the MXLUSB.006, though it did have less self-noise than the Samson.Check out the review at Emusician, search google for Samson, MXL, Podcaster and you should find it.

Wish I saw that review before I bought the MXL, since I experienced the same thing.Though the MXL has a rich sound, the noise is unacceptable for my application and I'll be returning it.

Although USB mics are notorious for noticeable self-noise, I went ahead and got the Rode Podcaster, and have not noticed any significant self-noise.

If a faint high-pitched noise is not a big deal to you, this is a pretty good condenser microphone.I would be all over it if it weren't for the fact that I need a really quiet mic.

Product Description:
Designed withease-of-use in mind, the new MXL.006 features a large gold diaphragm that delivers a big, rich sound characteristic of studio and broadcast microphones. Unlike most studio condenser microphones, however, the MXL.006 is a USB (Universal Serial Bus) instrument that connects directly to a computer without the need for external mic preamps. Now, anyone requiring high quality, professional sound on their computer can record music or dialog by simply connecting to a standard USB port. Featuring support for USB 1.1 and 2.0, this exceptionally easy-to-use microphone even includes gain adjustment settings via the built-in three position attenuation switch.
Working with the new MXL.006 is a pleasure. As a plug and play device for both Windows and Macintosh, it requires no special drivers whatsoever. Simply connect the microphone's USB cable to a computer's USB port, and installation is quick and effortless. In addition to recording instruments or voice for home recording applications, the new MXL.006 is the perfect microphone for podcasting or adding dialog to presentations and other multimedia projects. It is also the perfect solution capable of opening new possibilities for radio and news broadcasters and for location recording.Unlike electrets or dynamic microphones typically used for computer work, the MXL.006 has an extremely smooth, natural sound typical of what one would hear on a professionally produced CD or radio show. The analog section of the new MXL.006 microphone features a 20 Hz-20 kHz frequency response, a large gold diaphragm, pressure-gradient condenser capsule, and a 3-position, switchable attenuation pad with settings for Hi (0 dB), Medium (-5 dB), and Lo (-10 dB), making it easy to configure the microphone to virtually any sound source. The digital section features a 16-bit Delta Sigma A/D converter with a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz. Protecting the instrument's capsule is a heavy-duty wire mesh grill with an integrated pop filter.To make recording a trouble-free process, the new MXL.006 features a red LED behind the protective grill. This LED informs the user that the microphone is active and correctly oriented toward the user. To complete this terrific package, the new MXL.006 ships with a travel case, a desktop microphone stand, a 10-foot USB cable, windscreen, an owner's manual, and an applications guide.

Logitech Quickcam for Notebooks Deluxe Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I really like my webcam.The picture is very clear on MSN messenger and Yahoo.Furthermore, it works fine for me with only one light on in the room.My fiance has a much more expensive camera that is grainy with a brown-tint to the picture.In contrast to his camera, mine is clear.

The clip:For me, the clip worked fine.I have a Toshiba Satellite.Also, having no desire to move the webcam all around, the short cord is sufficient.

Overall, happy with my purchase.I have a logitech headset (note:Without the headset I did experience an echo when I talked) that I use with the camera.

I like the camera, and am (thus far) not disappointed.

Philips SpeechMike Pro 5274 - Trackball - wired - USB Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am using this microphone to dictate medical records along with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I found an immediate improvement in accuracy when I began using this microphone. I also feel that it fits very comfortably in the hand. The programmable buttons are handy time-savers. In fact, you can really utilize these more than I realized because each button is really 3 buttons in one as they are programmable for holding CTRL and SHIFT as well. They can activate function keys, macros, or type text macros. The trackball is not my favorite way to navigate my screen, but it is there if you don't feel like reaching for a mouse. It has given me an immediate boost in productivity and has made dictation more enjoyable. In fact, I am dictating this review, and have not needed to correct its output at all.

My only criticism is that it has a rather light, cheap feel in the hand. Also, the attractive red light that looks pretty on the advertisement (around the mic receiver and also illuminating the trackball) almost never comes on. Its an indicator light for recording, but it seems to only work with the recording test-program which the microphone comes with. It's a program which you will never use. The indicator lights never activate while dictating with Dragon. It's a minor criticism.

Summary: Nice mic, quality output, good ergonomics and convenient buttons. If it had a nicer "quality-feel" in the hand and indicator lights which worked with Dragon I would give it five stars easily.

USB Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)About a month ago I acquired my Dynex microphone to replace the Rocketfish USB microphone I had loaned to a friend months before. The style and shape of the microphones appeared to be identical, complete with on/off button located on the front. I had been very happy with my Rocketfish microphone but was willing to try something different and took a chance on Dynex.

So far I have not been disappointed. I am dictating this review using my Dragon Naturally Speaking program version 10 and the microphone is working beautifully. The computer has no difficulty understanding my speech and is correctly transcribing all of the words that I'm saying. This is a factor of the software certainly, to some extent, but it is also a factor of the microphone: a crappy microphone would have meant garbled text. That is not happening.

I have also used the microphone to record brief portions of my speech, and the quality of the recordings are supremely accurate. Soon I intend to use it for Skype and I expect no surprises: I expect it to perform very well.

I like using a microphone which is not strapped across my head but which can be set on my desktop or be held in my hand while I dictate. Rocketfish was perfect for that purpose. So is this Dynex.

Summary: no complaints and only good things to say. Do not pay $50 for one, however, because they are widely available for much less. I acquired mine very gently used include shipping for less than $10.Don't waste your money.This is a fine product.

Rode Podcaster USB Dynamic Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For recording my voice (baritone), it does a great job.For extra warmth that means close-miking, which in turn means not popping your p's, etc.If you hold it close to your mouth but don't directly face it end-on, that's easily done (or get a pop filter).[...].

The microphone electronics are extremely quiet - the audio is sampled at 18 bits.

It comes with a warranty which is easily extended to 10 years for free.

The real-time headphone monitoring is a great idea and works well.

It's a bit heavy (part of being built like a tank), and you need to think a little about how you're going to mount it, since some cheap desktop stands can barely manage it.

Some things to keep in mind are:
1) It likes close-miking (at least for male voices)
2) It is USB-only
3) It is a on the bit large and heavy side.

If those don't bother you, and the price is in your range, then you will probably like it a lot.

Pc Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed a new mic for my video and music projects. The mic I had been using had served me well for many years, but it really wasn't suited for recording directly to the PC. This mic is, and I've been happy with it since the day I bought it. I really don't have any complaints. The clip makes it easy to hold the mic at a consistent distance. And the stand allows for hands free use as well. I'm always experimenting with electronic equipment in order to get the sounds and images that I want, and I have to say that pound for pound, this is one of the best little mics I've ever gotten for this price.

Samson CO1U USB Condenser Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The audio quality of the mic is outstanding, worthy of 4 stars on its own.I use it to do production for radio and it sounds nearly as good as the studio mics.The problem lies with the software and the drivers.Mac users aren't the only ones experiencing headaches.If you are going to use this microphone on a Windows PC, I highly recommend using the native Windows drivers instead of the Samson SoftPre drivers, as the XP drivers are much more stable.The SoftPre, for some reason, conflicts with the native XP drivers and is prone to crashing and causing erratic audio performance - such as stuttering, clipping and popping noise, none of which I get using XP's drivers.The Samson drivers also crashed my computer three times in the first couple of days I used it, so now I am using the XP drivers. The Samson drivers aren't fully compliant with Windows XP, and as such you'll get a barrage of warnings when installing them ("Drivers are NOT digitally signed...may cause system instability!").Its kind of a disappointment, because the SoftPre has some very useful basic features like Gain, LPF and such, but if you know anything about working with DAW's, any capable editing program will have these functions built in anyways.So for the price, I say go for it...just stay FAR away from Samson's software.

*update*

This mic works perfectly with the native OS X Tiger drivers.Its truly plug and play, have been using it in Garage band with no problems.Also, this mic works perfect with Vista...no software needed.

ALSO...I notice alot of people commenting on adjusting the balance when using this microphone.You dont need to do that, because you are forgetting that this is a MONO sound source.In your audio editing program, select the Samson CO1U, and then when you select input, choose "Input 1 MONO" instead of "Input 1-2 Stereo."Stereo is out of balance because again, its a single mono source.Hope this helps.

MXL USB007 USB Stereo Condenser Microphone Review

(More customer reviews)As a music director, I bought this for its portability to record concerts in stereo.Just hook it up to a laptop computer (plugs into a USB port) and record away - anywhere!The resulting WAV file is already on the computer ready to tweak in Sound Forge.The stereo sound quality is rich and accurate. We have been very impressed.

The mic uses dual gold diaphragm capsules in a XY pattern together with low noise electronics and the latest in enhanced digital conversion techniques for pristine audio quality.
In a demonstration CD a vintage acoustic guitar was recorded with a famous studio mic going thru high quality studio gear to a hard disk recorder and then was compared to the MXL USB.007 recorded direct to a standard computer. The results were nothing short of amazing; the MXL USB.007 sounded like a pristine direct to disc recording while the studio mic sounded nice but lacked punch or detail of the USB mic.

Because of its high quality and ease of use the new mic opens up new possibilities for direct stereo recording with a standard computer such as live performances in the professional, school and home environment. It's also a very exciting tool for podcasts, multimedia, news and broadcast applications using portable computers for remote stereo recording of concerts, lectures, or even documenting outdoor sounds in stereo for film and and sharing with friends and TV backgrounds.

Imagine the fun of recording performances and sound effects from anywhere in the world on a portable computer in full stereo and sharing with friends and associates.
The MXL USB .007 comes with a carry bag, a desktop mic stand, mic stand adapter, a 10-foot USB cable, wind screen, owners manual and an applications guide.

Telex M-560 Computer Headset Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Most computer microphones are plugged into your existing sound card.Though the card can certainly improve reception, it can also cause signal degradation by picking up internal and external electronic noise.As a result, voice recognition software sometimes labors to understand precisely what you mean.
With this USB device, though, there's no sound card involved. It automatically records your voice in digital sound as you speak, rather than running your voice through a board where additional noise can be picked up. In fact, so good is the Telex M-560, that it actually tanks if you try to record in anything less than CD quality.
Unsurprisingly, recordings are therefore crystal clear for multimedia work, and voice recognition software obviously responds better to it than non-USB mikes.Like a boom on a movie sound set, it can be put well out of the way and still pick up brilliant sound.Because of its unique directional technology which cancels background noise, you can use it at a distance of up to two feet and still have superb results with voice recognition software. I've got mine on top of my monitor and I never have to readjust its position. And, because it's USB, I can easily share it between Mac and Wintel machines.
The only problem I can think of with this thing is that it doesn't work under Windows 95.Telex hasn't made drivers to support that legacy platform, and they don't appear to have an interest in doing so.Their primary target audience is quite clearly people with newer machines, and Telex makes no apologies for it.After all, most voice recognition software requires faster processors to run effectively, and those machines would typically be running at least Windows 98, anyway.
That proviso aside, I love this microphone.No, it's not quite as good as the results you'll get from inside a recording studio.But for the money, it's close enough for me.

Samson G Track USB Microphone and Audio Interface Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This will be a nice semi-quick review with a little more technical perspective than a lot of the previous ones.I'm a big home recording nut, who's been on the road a lot the last year, mostly recording with my laptop, this mic, and a full version of Sonar.

First off, the audio quality:
Pretty decent.No noticeable glitches while using.Does sound a little tinny at times, but it's definitely on par with most of my other $100+ mikes (my most expensive one is a $200 Rode).Very usable for recording vocals (singing), but I haven't tried it with an acoustic guitar or other acoustic instruments.VERY-usable-plus for recording spoken words.Frequency range seems decent, but again, I haven't really ran the thing through a full range of applications.

Build quality:
Nice and solid.Almost too heavy though for easy lugging on small trips...but I keep it in the manufacturer's box and slide it in my suitcase, and so far it has made every trip just fine.

Ease of use:
Big plus here, despite a stable Windows OS possibly being as much responsible for the super simple use of the thing as the mic itself.Plug it in via USB, and you're ready to go.No special driver install or software required to get it working.

Extras:
-Line in and headphone out are constructed directly on the mic...this lets you use the mic as a line-in for recording an electronic keyboard or electric guitar directly into your recording software.And then you can use the microphone part of it to record vocals or any acoustic instruments.Nice double-feature to have in the same piece of hardware
-Comes with a very usable desk mic stand
-Comes with all the necessary cables to use right away
-Comes with some scaled-down Cakewalk recording software for your computer

I expected the sound quality would be usable and it is, but I admit the all-in-one extras and the acceptable price were what ultimately snagged me and prompted the one-click order.

Final thoughts:
If you're only doing podcasting (no music or instrument input required), you might consider a lower priced USB mic without the extras.BUT, if you're doing music with the thing, the line-in and line-out features and easy direct monitoring are way nice and worth the price.

Microsoft LifeCam VX-5000 (Blue) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This camera is worth buying in this price range for people who generally use Windows Live products (messenger, etc) and normally do basic web cam sessions with a resolution no greater than 640 x 480. If you'd like to do full screen video using other software like Skype, you'll want to get a higher end Microsoft camera or something like the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 (my favorite).I've been using the Quickcam Pro 9000 for the past year and have really liked it, however, it seems to be at least double the price of this MS camera. One downside to this Microsoft camera is that the microphone can be a bit faint and the sound can be a bit off.That said, unless you have high expectations for crystal clear web cam chats, then I can certainly recommend this camera for people mainly interested in ease of use with Windows Live Messenger and other Instant Messaging programs.It was easy to install and is extremely easy to use.I recorded this video in 320x240 resolution using the included software. Thanks and have fun shopping!
