Pros: 1) Great (!) sound quality 2) Four simple options, really hard to mess up 3) Simple set up, just plug the microphone in the USB port on your computer, and select the mic as a default in the settings (the mic also comes with a simple instruction booklet). 4) No SD card required, this mic records straight into your computer. I use the default sound recorder that comes with Windows, but there are other options available if you want to play with the sound. Cons: 1) Not portable. Since it is a USB microphone, you are tied to your computer. 2) Bulky and heavy. This is a tabletop mic. 3) The dial to switch among the modes is really tough to turn Overall, I really like it! I think portability is the primary issue for me, but I knew what I was purchasing.

Where to start? I bought this so I could do a podcast and to be honest it was a much better product than I expected. 4 settings, a headset Jack, powered by USB which I was able to connect to my iPad Pro. The sound quality I can capture is beyond amazing. I was recording my podcast and captured my dog snoring from 8 feet away. You could hear it plain as day. After that I build a sound studio to further enhance my work. I cannot say how awesome a product for the price this is. I am not one of those people who knows a lot about these things but... I have done a fair amount of ADR work and can tell you what does and does not sound good in post. This microphone is suitable for professional grade sound and voice capture. You will not be disappointed.

Product quality is outstanding. Relatively simple setup right out of the box. Voice clarity is vastly improved over using our webcam microphone. With the transition from classrooms at schools to offsite distance learning, speech delivery is much clearer during online meetings for the students and parents that I work with when using this microphone. I chose to add a windscreen to ours; seen in the attached picture. For those reviewers who mention the $50 Ubisoft discount promotion, please remember that you are purchasing a microphone and to expect that the $50 Ubisoft promotional card has an expiration date of September 30, 2019. Other reviewers mentioned the expired promotion; please bank in it being expired. This combination of microphone and Ubisoft promotion card are likely old stock. Purchasing the microphone with the expired discount promotion was still a better price than purchasing the microphone alone; at least when we made the purchase. Taking a glass half full mindset with this review. All the best!

So I ended up buying this microphone after talking with a few streamer friends of mine and, wow let me say this was a great investment. I went cheap at first and my audio was bad on stream but with this new bad boy my voice is super clear and it catches all of my deep breathing lol. You won’t regret this purchase.

The mic is amazing, and worth the price I paid. Sadly, while the box says it contains a $50 discount code, the code was only for $20. Thinking it was a fluke, I exchanged it for another and got the same thing. Ubisoft, it would seem, supplied the packager with the wrong product.
