SUDOTACK USB Condenser Microphone, Professional PC Cardioid Microphone for Podcasting, Recording, YouTube, Home Studio, Voice-over

Sounds great. Easy to use and set-up.Used to record social media content and a podcast, so I'm incredibly happy with it. My co-host went and brought the same mic after our first recording session.

Bought on a recommendation,an definitely surprised by the quality of voice perfect for what i needed.

This mic was recommended by a couple of friends who already had it so I knew roughly what to expect. The articulating arm is pretty much what you'd expect and is similar to the types of things you see on desk lamps and tablet holders etc. It's not an amazing bit of engineering, but it works perfectly well with the desk clamp holding nice and tight and holding the mic nicely in position once you've given the joints a little tighten. Only the plastic right at the end holding the mic itself feels a touch flimsy, but in fairness, is holding up perfectly fine so far. The mic is simply slotted into the plastic/elastic cradle at the end which provides some anti-vibration dampening. This fitting is quite secure and the mic isn't going anywhere. We added some velcro ties to secure the cable to the arm at a few places along it. You can happily tuck the mic away behind the screen etc when not in use and pull it back out in front to use it. No issues there, works well.The USB mic was found instantly by Windows 10 and worked without any configuration. It sounds very clear, with a nice rounded sound, noticeably better than even a quite expensive headset and with the sponge cover, didn't particularly need the pop filter fitted either when we tested it. These mic's are designed to be used quite close to your mouth and the volume drops off quite quickly when you move away so bear that in mind if you're using them with a webcam and don't want the mic in shot the whole time. You will want to be talking INTO this mic.Overall a great mic and arm for the budding game streamer or amateur youtuber. Wait until you can get it for around £40 (often) and its a great deal.

The media could not be loaded. Before I begin - TLDR: The negative contact from the mic to the soundchip wasn't even soldered on. The contact was loose fresh out of the box (like it wasn't even attempted to have been sodlered on) - it was quickly fixed with a dab of a soldering iron, and now works brilliantly.so - the rest of the story.This is the first high quality mic of it's kind that I have bought - I have used regular headset mics for years, but they always sounded tinny, or really quiet when recording gaming footage. I have to say, i'm super happy with it, but when i opened the box, and it installed itself - it unfortunatley wasn't working. after maybe an hour of unplugging, re-installing, software checking and fault finding, everything told me that the mic was installed properly and was working correctly. All of the recording software however, was asking me "have you muted your mic?" - I was like, but it has not buttons on it? how can it be muted?After numerous attempts to re-install it, i decided to plug it into a laptop - Low and behold, exactly the same issue. So i figured it isn't the software, it has to be the hardware. I disconnected the mic and after a moment of wondering how to get into it, figured out that the bottom easily screws off, and the sleeve came of easily afterwards - and that's when i glaring spotted that the black wire from the mic wasn't even soldered on!!Quick dab with a hot soldering iron, and instantly working. no problem! sounds amazing on streams and i even use it for voice comms and people have commented how amazing it sounds, BUT - buyer beware, mine came faulty out of the packaging, which isn't something you would expect - but a little past expertise of electrical equipment saved me the whole hassle of having to return it as a faulty item. I would reccomend that they improve thier quality testing of thier products before shipping them!I still reccomend this mic despite the negative experience, and i know a freind has bought one based on how I sound while using it!Update: Added a small video for sound quality purposes

Seriously guys, I hate amazon now because of these reviews that are paid for, I didnt get anything in the box asking to leave a good review or anything, neither will you! I HAD TO LEAVE THIS REVIEW, I went from a decent mic I paid £15 on amazon for, it was alright but picked up too much background noise, sometimes my music was overtaking my voice, I used Noisegate on OBS to help but with this mic, I turned off noisegate, it works perfect, it is so unbelievably clear for this price I cannot be more please, the price point is perfect, the microphone is perfect, the arm is amazing to be included within the price of the mic. Overall, amazing build quality, sound quality, price, accessories, out of every single mic I looked for on here, this is 100% the best at this price. DO NOT CHANGE SUDOTACK, YOU ARE GREAT!!!!

Half the time, "good" reviews mislead you into buying something that quite frankly sucks. I had pretty much lost all faith in reviews and risked it at this point - my last mic also had "amazing" reviews. But in this rare instance (I watched the reassuring videos first), this product exceeded my expectations (by a lot, I should add).Compared to this other mic that I own, this mic does not even pic up my laptop's fan noise! That's insane. My laptop is around 3.5 years old now!For the money, I doubt you could get a mic with better sound. I don't even think I will need to render the audio quality with another software. The audio is good enough for a podcast. I have recorded my screen with everything plugged in. No hissing and crackling... Crystal clear.Works on Windows 7 as well without any issues.Amazing. Amazing. Buy it.

A nice mic and set, but latency is a BIG issue. I have a powerful PC but could not get latency sorted. Trying ASIO4ALL did help slightly, but not enough so that you can monitor what you are recording in realtime.

It was used for only a short time but it worked well with good sound
