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

Great Micro!
The SUDOTACK USB Streaming Podcast PC Microphone is a professional-grade microphone designed for podcasting, streaming, voiceovers, and studio recording. It offers high-quality audio with a 192KHz/24Bit sampling rate, ensuring crisp and natural sound. The microphone has a plug-and-play setup, making it easy to use without additional drivers. Its versatility makes it suitable for various applications, and the cardioid polar pattern helps isolate the voice and reduce background noise. The durable build ensures long-lasting performance, and additional accessories like a shock mount and pop filter might be included. However, it has limited connectivity as a USB microphone and might introduce some audio latency. Audio quality is subjective, so listening to sample recordings and considering user reviews is advised before making a decision. Overall, it appears to be a reliable choice for those in need of a USB microphone for professional audio purposes.One notable downside of the SUDOTACK USB Streaming Podcast PC Microphone is the absence of a physical on/off button. This can be a significant inconvenience for users who prefer a quick and straightforward way to control the microphone’s power status. Without a physical switch, you’ll need to disconnect the USB cable or adjust your computer’s audio settings to effectively turn off the microphone when not in use. This limitation might be considered a significant drawback for some users who value ease of use and quick access to microphone controls.

Great budget mic, sounds better than even an expensive headset mic.
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.

Great Mic, but wasn’t working out of the box…
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

Ich hatte dieses USB-Mikrofon von Sudotack ein Jahr lang im Einsatz, bevor ich auf ein deutlich teureres Modell (viermal so teuer) umgestiegen bin. Und ehrlich gesagt, das Teil ist fürs Geld einfach unschlagbar.Ich habe es danach meiner Schwester gegeben, und sie benutzt es jetzt jeden Tag. Sie liebt das Ding, und ich verstehe voll und ganz warum. Der Sound ist klar, es ist super einfach zu bedienen, und für alles von Gaming bis Online-Calls top geeignet.Wenn du ein Mikro brauchst, das gut klingt, easy funktioniert und dabei nicht teuer ist – nimm das hier. Preis-Leistung ist einfach brutal gut. Ganz klare Empfehlung für Einsteiger und alle, die was Vernünftiges suchen ohne direkt tief in die Tasche greifen zu müssen.

Soy un teletrabajador desde hace bastante tiempo (casi 4 años) y uso continuamente Google Meet con unos cascos con micrófono los cuales llegan a ser pesados (una media de 8 horas diarias de lunes a viernes) y después de que se rompieran los últimos cascos decidí ir a por un micrófono para liberarme de los cascos y estar más libre.Empecé a ver bastantes ofertas de micrófono y brazo a un precio de unos 50 €, pero siempre que veía las revisiones en Youtube me fijaba que todo el mundo se ponía el micrófono pegado a la cara y no quería ni mucho menos eso ya que entre otras cosas necesito ver (y que me vean) bien en las videollamadas.Con esto en mente empecé a mirar y la opción que más me convencía es un Blue Yeti Nano o un HyperX QuadCast pero aun con oferta se me iba de lo que tenía pensado gastarme (ya que ni soy Youtuber ni me dedico a nada de ese mundillo) pero pensaba… si no hay más remedio pues tendré que gastarme los 80-100 euros en el mejor de los casos y luego un brazo que lo soporte.Casi decidido estuve apunto de irme a por esa opción pero me salto en oferta este Sudotack ST800 y las opiniones parecían que no estaban pagadas ni eran de personas que le habían enviado el producto gratis.A la par también vi su hermano “mayor” el ST900 y no me importaba irme a ese modelo, pero ponían pegas algunos revisores en el monitoreo de tu voz indicando que había bastante latencia y decidí ir a por el ST 800Esta mañana me ha llegado el conjunto, lo primero decir que se monta en 2 minutos ya que si ves las fotos en el manual de instrucciones lo han puesto bastante claro, el brazo dicen algunos que no se le ve robusto pero no es mi sensación, llevo con él unas cuantas horas y ni se ha movido del sitio (tecleando con bastante ímpetu y con una mesa bastante mala).El micro ha sido conectado y se acabó, no hay que tocarlo, lo he dejado a una distancia de 30 centímetros a un lateral de mi pantalla y todo el mundo me ha comentado que se me oye alto y claro. No he puesto el filtro anti pop (si el filtro que pone tipo capuchón al micro) y nadie se ha quejado de que distorsione ni nada.Cuando he acabo de trabajar he realizado un par de grabaciones para ver como se me oye (con el programa Nvidia Broadcast) y las pruebas que he hecho al menos para mi me han dejado muy satisfecho.Por tanto tengo que decir que es una compra redonda en todos los aspectos, el micrófono visualmente se ve muy elegante, no tiene lucecitas (tampoco las quiero) y tampoco mute ni control de ganancia, lo cual lo hago siempre con el ordenador en las opciones de windows y del programa que use para videollamadas pero para el precio que tiene es una muy buena recomendación.
