Kmise USB Condenser Microphone for Window&Mac,Multipurpose mic for Gaming Recording Broadcast with Adjustable mic Stand (White)

The media could not be loaded.  I was looking for a mic to help amp up the sound of my uke when I make videos. This one was super easy to use. Great for a beginner like me who has no idea about fancy sound set ups. I was looking for something I could just plug in and go... this did the trick! The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is that the mic is a little heavy for the stand. I had it tilted way down to angle it at my uke and it kept tipping over. I finally put it on a lower table so I could angle it differently and that solved the problem.

When I purchased this microphone, I was trying to upgrade over the built-in mic in my Logitech cam. Though the mic does work, I found that while testing it, for some unexplainable reason, this microphone had great difficulty picking up my voice. It didn't matter if i was directly talking into the mic or just 1 or 2 feet away, it felt like I had to somewhat yell, in order for the mic to detect and pick up my voice.Plugging my Logitech cam back in, apparently its built-in microphone seemed 1000x stronger and more accurate because it was really picking up everything imaginable. Even from up close or far away, my lowest voice was coming in very strong. So that pretty much told me all I needed to know, sadly. This mic was way too quiet, even with the volume knob turned up.I made the decision to unplug this microphone and go back the one built into my webcam for now. I'll likely give this away at some point. I thought this would be a sound investment, but, the quality was not what I would've hoped it would be.

This compact microphone is quality. It's a plug and play device that hooked up to the pc and chromebook with ease. My teenage son used it in his interactive gaming, and loved the echo feature to make his fellow gamers crazy. I used it for speech to text applications without issue. It's size is perfect for table top use; without consuming too much valuable desktop real estate. I did the initial testing of the mic at the kitchen table, and was amazed while playing back the recording to hear that it picked up sounds from the other room with great clarity. Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised with the ease of use, and overall performance of this microphone. It's brand new, so my only question to answer is will it last? But with this kind of performance, at this price point, even if it doesn't last a generation, it is worth getting a second, or purchasing again. But I think it will last a long and useful life; as it is solid construction, well mounted, and easily transported. I'm very impressed with the overall quality. I would recommend this product for anyone needing a microphone for daily use.

This USB condenser microphone from Kmise is a great deal for the money. I ordered this on Amazon for $27.99 and it arrived just a couple of days later (I've actually seen it cheaper since my order). The mic itself is built very well, and is equipped with volume, echo, and LED mute/pause controls. Also, there is an input for headphones to monitor or review recordings. I was able to "plug and play" this mic into my PC and record instantly without trouble. The mic comes with a very sturdy adjustable mount and stand. When mounted and set up, the mic is stable and looks very nice. The clarity when recording vocals is superior to that of recording an acoustic instrument, and I would recommend the Kmise USB condenser mic for any voice application. With a little work, I believe that the mic could be used to adequately record instruments, but I find that the high end treble is very dominant and lacks the bottom end warmth when recording open air acoustics. Overall, this Kmise USB condenser microphone package is a high quality value. There are many other products out there there that cost more and are simply not as good as this one.

I got this microphone yesterday and i was using it for a while, I unplugged the microphone and moved it somewhere and after a couple hours i plugged it back up but it just stopped picking up my voice. I did everything to try and make it work again but it still hasnt worked and im thinking about factory restarting my laptop or just returning the microphone to get a new one.

I really like our new microphone. I got it to record my kids playing their ukuleles and other instruments. I was most pleased with the sound recorded from the ukuleles. The piano recording had good sound, but it was not as loud as I would like. I think a grand piano with the lid up would record louder sound than ours. The microphone will also be useful in recording for podcasts, vlogs or on zoom calls. It was really easy to plug-in and use with the Microsoft voice recorder app. The directions were not written with clear English, but you don't really need them anyway.

I just received my new Kmise USB Condenser Microphone for window&Mac,Multipurpose mic for Gaming Recording Broadcast with adjustable mic stand. The product was shipped and arrived quickly. I really enjoyed the sound that the microphone produced with my earbuds plugged in straight into the microphone. The quality of the sound is crisp & clear. The make of the product is sturdy and well made. I am building my instrument collect and this is my 4th Kmise product. I am very happy with all of my purchases, everything has been great quality. I have referred to friends & would buy again.

The media could not be loaded.  Great sound and quality for the price. Well built and easy to use. Check out the video for my review.

The media could not be loaded.  The first impression you get when you open the box is that it looks the part of a professional-level piece of kit and after a full morning’s testing and comparing to my existing equipment, I don’t think it lets down on that front – it feels solid and well made.In test it easily performs to the same standard as my other microphones 2-3 times the price and absolutely outshone them when in an unshielded 1” pop test (sound samples from my tests are in the attached video). It also seems to cope incredibly well with high and loud volume peaks – something my Zoom H1 has struggled with. I was particularly pleased with how it recorded musical instruments (also in the video).It comes with a stand, a separate stand adapter, a windshield (which means you can take it and your laptop outside), and a USB lead. This is the only minor let down as it is only 1.3m long from tip to tip. This fine if you are sitting at a desk, but a 2 metre or longer lead would be better if you are going to record standing up, or any distance from your computer.The mic features three controls; a mute button, volume control and an “Echo” control – something I hadn’t come across before, but turning it up adds a delay echo – which means you can fake reverb straight into the mic if you want (also in the video!).The headphone jack is a real plus. With it you can hear exactly what the mic hears before processing. This is a really valuable feature – it means I will no longer have to record something and play it back before I can hear what it’s like, or hear it through my software – I’m hearing a clean signal in the headphones.Setup and installation were superbly easy. Once I plugged the USB lead (USB2 not USB3, surprisingly) into my Windows 10 pc it was available almost instantly. I opened Windows “Sound Settings” and it was listed “Microphone (USB PnP Audio Device)”. I set the volume on the mic to max and the Windows recording levels to max, so the recording samples in the videos below are using those settings.My set-up is probably classed as “advanced amateur”. I’m not a sound engineer, but an amateur musician and video maker. I’ll use the mic for music video recordings for my Youtube channel and for recording narration in my video editing software.Here’s a summary of my findings in my tests where I was comparing the mic to a Samson C01UPRO and a Zoom H1.• 30cm voice test – performed to the same standard as the other more expensive mics. There is some reverberation at this distance, mainly due to me recording in my dining room. Once you move closer to the mic, that disappears.• 45 degree off-axis colouration test – no discernible changes in sound or tone.• Pop test (plosive phrases spoken into the unshielded mic at 1”) Absolutely flawless, no trace of pop or his at all, unlike my other mics which failed miserably..In conclusion, the price does not reflect the quality of this mic. It is more than adequate for an amateur, semi-pro, home enthusiast setup. I was recording in my dining room, a very far from perfect audio environment but I was very impressed with the results. Getting the right distance from the mic (any mic) is key. It had no problems recording musical instruments and the ability to add a touch of delay/reverb is a plus.I can’t compare it to top-end mics at hundreds of pounds, but that’s not its competition. It is certainly equal to and in some instances better than the low-end professional models I’ve been using. If you are blogging, streaming or Youtube or recording video and you are on a budget you shouldn’t be disappointed.

The microphone controls include a volume control, a mute button, a headphone jack and an ingenious “echo” control too.The microphone is “plug and play” with Windows 10, and is detected straight away. We were recording sounds within 5 minutes of opening the box.The microphone itself is certainly comparable in quality to any other microphones we have used before. It is a cardioid condenser microphone and ideally suited to desktop use using the stand provided, broadcasting or studio use. (or outside use with the windshield fitted) However it does need to be carefully positioned to avoid picking up unwanted background noise - you need to be talking into the end of the microphone at roughly 12 inches from the end , rather than the side.The echo function is particularly interesting and unique as it enables a reverb effect when used in the studio environment, that would otherwise need to be added through software, or other hardware. It isn’t perfect , but is interesting to “play” with and come up with your own effects.The on-mic headphone jack enables you to listen to the source of the sound as heard by the microphone before any software processing is done on the PC, so again is a useful extra. Also useful is the mute button which enables quick and easy muting whilst the microphone is in the hand or within reach rather than having to mute on the pc (or just cover up the mic with your hand!)In terms of sound quality it seems fine and certainly approaching the more well known brands, and with the stand, windshield and cables included it seems very good value for money. I don’t think you will see this being adopted as a professional standard mic, but as a budget option, with careful placement and set up it should provide a cheap alternative for the beginner. Well at a third of the price of an equivalent branded pro microphone what would you expect??In summary, the Mic itself is a great buy. It can provide good results and is certainly worth the investment. It seems to be of good quality construction, no crack or pops from the recordings no interference from the volume or echo controls. It seems to be built to last.My criticisms are purely that the USB cable supplied could be longer, and the stand quality is fairly poor, but as these are effectively “Free extras” I don’t think I can complain!

Works out of the box provided you've the right set-up/programs to use it with. At most an audio editor program requires an input to be changed to recognise it.

Very impressed with the sound quality that is produced by this mic with it also having the low price that it has. Well worth the money, only complaint is that the stand is a bit flimsy but the mic itself is brilliant.

Very happy with this microphone. It sounds as good as my Sennheiser. I would like a little bit more volume however. Has a built-in Echo function however is more of a gimmick but still fun if you're into that sort of thing.
