I needed to replace an old xlr mic on a budget and for 52 for a mini yeti the sound quality is amazing, the app itself for Logitech devices with the built in voice changer or vocal modes is perfect also for those who sing and need something on a budge
No set up needed, just plugged it into my pc and by the time I got my recording software open it was ready to go. I was amazed how smooth the raw audio sounded, with only a little bit of background noise despite the state of the room I tested it in. As a novice, I was happy with the sound quality and it’s more than suitable for what I need it for (recording audio for training videos while working from home).
Diving into the world of online communication, clarity is paramount. The device I’ve been using slots into my setup with no fuss, its straightforward USB connection a welcome relief. During intense gaming sessions, the clarity it affords is unmatched; my voice carries with a crispness that often lacks in other models. Its design, while robust, never overshadows its core function. A subtle presence that simply does its job, and does it well. The additional features, though not its selling point, offer a nice touch without being overbearing. It’s a solid choice for anyone looking to elevate their audio game without unnecessary complications.
I have been wanting to get a mic for a while, but have always been put off by past experiences of difficulty getting them to work. There was no need to worry with this mic as I simply plugged in the usb lead and windows immediately detected the mic and gave a reassuring “your device is ready to use” message. I installed the G HUB software from their site which updated the mic and it was ready to go. There are also some settings and effects in the software that you can play around with, as well as being able to change the colour of the RBG LED logo.
I think the mic looks fantastic and will fit in with most modern gaming or work setups. My only gripe is that the LED logo is situated on the back of the mic, so you dont really get to see it. The stand is quite basic and has no form of vibration dampening, so does tend to pick up the sound of my mechanical keyboard. I solved this quite easily by placing the mic on a soft rubber mat, although I’ll probably buy a better stand at some point.
Overall I am very happy with this mic and it’s perfect for my basic needs. Sounds good, it’s easy to setup and looks very sleek and stylish.
It’s got a light on it so obviously it’s designed for gamers!!
What I found a bit annoying was the stand, it is too lightweight and I found it being knock and moved about to easily when enthusiastically playing a game or even knocking it over just moving my keyboard away from me. The stand should be much more weighty or designed with a flat bottom with rubber or similar to provide some adhesion and grip to the surface.
It’s better on a boom that I have for my daughter for her semi pro mic but I don’t really want to be using that all the time as it’s a bit invasive. To give it some credit the mic has two thread positions for mic arms so is quite versatile.
So in summary, perfectly good everyday mic and looks the part but the stand could be better.
A nice entry level, simple usb gaming desk mic with a fully featured software suite that you download from the logitech website (G HUB) with all the bells and whistles you would need to get a very good quality sound.
The mic does however have some obvious flaws due to its stand and lightweight construction and that is it picks up every tap of your keyboard, click of your mouse and background noise to a certain extent and really needs to be mounted on a boom arm to really get the best out of it which at least logitech has considered by including a standard 1/4 inch screw fitting, the list price (59-99) seems fine if you add the fully featured software suit you can download that has plenty of preset filters and a fun selection of voice change options as well as a compressor, gate, de-esser and much more ect, certainly worth considering as a purchase without splashing out stupid amounts on a “pro mic”
This mic feels nice and sounds good for the price.
The feet really pick up keyboard sounds and any other movement on the desk, so you really need to mount this on a mic stand, but if you put it on a surface away from your keyboard then its fine.
The Mic head is huge, but I’m not sure that’s needed. Its a shame the LED is so small, as it could have been a feature, maybe as a metronome, or just to count you in, but its just a tiny LED that serves no purpose.
The software is basic, but lets you play with your voice, so adds some fun.
Useful for podcasting but i think a headset mounted mic would be better for gaming, as you don’t really want to pick up room noise.
It feels nice and solid, and as its Logitech is should las
I ordered this product to use as a gaming microphone on my computer. Firstly set up was ridiculously easy, you just take it out the box and plug in the included USB and boom, you’re good to go. You can also download Logitechs G Hub to gain additional things such as voice effects which overlay the mic and will work in anything using the mic for input. You can also adjust the RGB lighting through G hub to off, fixed or have it cycle through the colours. The sound quality is also incredible and apparently i’ve never sounded clearer which is great.
You can remove the included stand if you wish to attach to a boom arm but I personally keep on the stand and it picks up my voice nice and clear from where it is.
