Q: Hi I'm trying to connect the microphone to my laptop and it's not recognizing it when I plug in the USB. I've tried on both a Mac and Windows laptop where the USB ports are working just fine. Please help! Thanks!

A: I have verified it's the cable. I used my printer cable and it works fine. This is a recurring problem. Don't know if it's specific to Best Buy or not but this is the only place I seen the issue reported.

Q: For some odd reason the light keeps blinking red, I’ve tried every fix and it still claims to be “clipping” even though it’s not playing any audio at all. Pls help!

A: This is probably due to the input and output sample rates not being set to the same setting. Change in the microphone properties tab, then select the advanced tab.

Definitely a must for bloggers and speakers
Perfect for my speaking needs and very easy to use and test with the monitor feature. Improved the quality for my listeners instead of using an internal mic on a tablet . The volume controls are accurate as observed by my listeners. I would recommend this for bloggers and online speakers. By the way if you’re going to get this mic get a powered usb hub if you will use it with your tablets because the tablet itself will not have enough juice to power this usb mic.

Great sound quality, but too many design (IMO).
First of all, the sound quality of this microphone definitely exceeded my expectations. It’s crystal clear, crisp and blocks out unwanted noise quite well. It is definitely well built, and very durable — perhaps, a bit too much though, as I’d probably lose a few toes if the mic ever came loose. The software is great! That is, if you are able to work with it. I have used Adobe Premier and OSX Final Cut without a single problem. This software is the only one I have ever had with any. Maybe it’s over my head? If so, then I’m sure it would be over the vast majority of others — leaving it to those who are very savvy with the program in specific to benefit from it. And I highly doubt they will be using a 20-pound, $150 mic, which could basically be used as a weapon; is extremely limited in terms of inputs/outputs, connects via USB B (of all things?!), and will likely require a $300 microphone stand to hold this behemoth in place. On the other hand, it works great for voice dictation, voiceovers, podcasts and other stationary tasks.

Good mic. Expected better.
Good mic overall. I just feel like it’s a little too sensitive. FOR MY PREFERENCE. I record audio vocals. So when I record from home it could pick up on something loud outside. But for streaming I’d say it’s good as well.
