Mini Usb Microphone For Camcorder

This is a great microphone. It does not require an audio interface. Simply plug it to your computer through USB and there you go! It also has an option for monitoring with zero latency. The default microphone sound level is too quite for my listeners. So, I use peace + equalizer combo software to adjust its dB output level (+18dB). I compared to my Rode Mini USB condenser microphone. Q2U had a more natural sounding and rich audio. Rode mini USB sounded little dull (or muffled). However, Q2U has much more ambient noise which requires more editing time at post production. As a teacher, I do not have extra time for that. So, I prefer Rode mini USB for my lecture recordings and I may use Q2U for broadcasting where recording is not a priority. Finally, this info can be useful to some: Q2U doesn't work with Notability on iPad Pro (3rd Gen), Rode Mini USB does.

if you need a microphone for your camcorder this one is the best for you

with a mini DV camcorder

I purchased this with the Rode NT-USB Mini microphone and they function beautifully together. I had returned another company’s boom arm that was too stiff to be functional. This works great, is sturdy and is especially good for a limited space. Great flexibility and a good price.

Even though my Blue Yeti microphone comes with a deluxe, heavy black anodized aluminum stand, I like this one better. The Blue Yeti mic stand is tall, and the mic blocks too much of the view of my monitor. This stand, on the other hand, is the perfect height. The bottom of my microphone is barely 2 inches above the desk. It's amazingly simple to deploy, with three legs that feel like metal, maybe steel, I'm not sure. The little footpads grip the desk nicely. If you want to mount the mic directly to the 5/8 adapter like I did, you will need to purchase a right-angle mini USB adapter, because there's not enough clearance between the bottom of the mic and the stand for a conventional mini USB plug.

I bought B&H's Rode NT-USB Mini USB Microphone Kit with Broadcast Arm and Closed-Back Headphones (BH #RONTUSBMINIB) and was fairly happy with it, but wanted to reduce sound transmitted through the desk-mounted arm. It seems that most shock mounts hold the barrel of the microphone, but the Rode NT-USB mini is a rectangular block rather than a cylinder. It bolts into this mount just fine though. The reduction in sound conducted through the arm is very noticeable. I don't have experience with other shock mounts to compare to, but this works better than I expected.

The Blue Yeti it’s a best USB Microphone.

This microphone is easy to attach to my camcorder and produces excellent recordings.

For use with a mac mini on the usb port.. very accurate ..

It works great. I've always wanted an external microphone for my camcorder but my camcorder did not support an external microphone. So...I bought a new camcorder that supported an external microphone. Both were less expensive than I thought, thanks to B&H Camera. I am not a professional, I just take videos of events that occur in the retirement home where I live and the camera and Azden SMX-10 Stereo Microphone is quite adequate - I love it.
