Samson C02 Instrument Condenser Microphones Spec

I had originally bought a pair of Samson CO1U condenser microphones and ended up returning them after attempting to record a piano only to find an incredible amount of noise. I tried to tweak the settings of the recording software for over an hour to no avail. So I tried a pair of AT2020USB's and found a night and day difference! The gain on the AT2020USB is a little on the sensitive side, giving some pretty harsh distortion when you go beyond the threshold. But once I had all of the levels just right, they sounded amazing! The AT2020USB may be a little more expensive than the CO1U, but the AT2020USB is far more superior in both sound and build quality. I can confidently say you will not be disappointed!

Great quality, looks great, and perfect fit for the Samson C02

These Samson C02 mics do very well when used for recording indoor interviews, which is why I purchased them. At the $117 dollar price getting two is more than just a deal. I did add Rycote Windjammer BaseBall wind screens for handheld work.

Is a little heavy, but that’s is perfect for the biggest microphones. Perfect for condenser microphones on the desk.

This instrument is ideal for shotgun microphones. It's simple, stylish, and it just works.

I really should have bought the ADX20IP Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone WITH the APS910 Power Supply ... but oh well ... live and learn. I use it connected to the Tascam DR-100 MKII and have loved the results.

My initial reaction to the Samson XP106w is that it couldn't be much better. It seems VERY well made; its sound production is clear, deep, and loud-enough; and the two included wireless microphones are excellent. I am particularly pleased with the fact that BOTH mics can be paired with the same USB receiver (included). I can then switch back and forth between the two microphones just by shutting one off when the other is turned on. (They just can't be used simultaneously.) Both mics resist inference and feedback remarkably well.

If you need a shock mount for your Samson C01 or C03 microphones, this is the one to get. It offers adequate isolation and allows right-side-up or upside-down mounting of the microphone. It's well-constructed and easy to use. I recommend to all C01 and C03 users who wish to obtain the best sound from their microphone.

Many years ago I bought the one for dynamic microphones and it has always served me well. Now I bought this one for condenser microphones and so fa it has been just as good. I love it!!!

We are using these condenser microphones for a 20 member church choir. The product literature was very helpful for us in assembly and future modifation of our sound system. The sound technician and I also liked the on-line tutorials that Audix posted.
