I picked up this mic to improve the audio setup I use for Twitch streams. I pair it with a Presonus Audio Box USB96 via an XLR cable obviously. Simple but effective!
The microphone is light years away from what I had before (AKG D5 Dynamic Microphone, good for live/group singing, less for the podcast...).
The sound is much clearer, rounder and overall more pleasant than before.
The price is EXTREMELY attractive! 50€ for this quality is top notch.
ATTENTION: If you do not have an external sound card/mixer with 48V phantom power TAKE the Bird UM1 (SW if you want it in white), it is the same or almost the same but in USB so no need for a sound card.Automatically translated

I bought this microphone at 22€ only to replace a BM 800 that picked up a lot of background noise, it's day and night!
This mic coupled with my Behringer U-Phoria UMC202HD audio interface is impressive:
It doesn't pick up any background noise and doesn't sizzle. In fact, I really like the sound of the voice it gives, very clean.
I use this microphone mainly for streaming, chatting on discord or video conferences but it is a real studio microphone and the quality is affected as soon as the product is unpacked, the microphone has both excellent sound and manufacturing quality.Automatically translated

I haven't had enough time to test it yet... I took it for its very affordable price and for the price I am not disappointed. It's not cheap at all. In terms of sound I think there are better but also much more expensive;)

very very sensitive, a gain of 1 is enough to get a result. I have crackles at higher gain, but I think it's mainly because I don't know how to properly adjust all the parameters yet.

Great value for money, easy to use for a top result (slight echoes in large rooms, prepare a good set)
