I just got this microphone! Also, i can use this for ASMR videos now and it sounds amazing i also like the noise cancelation button which mutes the microphone which i enjoy very much just by holding the mute button.
Looking for a decent mic for my unboxing and review videos. This sounds pretty good, just trying to think of where to position when doing my unboxings to achieve the best audio result face on. This video helped, thanks!
I dont understand. I pop the microphone in my laptop through the usb cable and it stays silent. Is there an on/off button? I don't understand what I'm missing.
Please l purchased three of this zeal sound .. l want to start a podcast .. please l tried connecting all three mics into my laptop and the sound was bad .. please what can l do to improve the audio sound 😊
👍👍 Does the mic alone produce your super voice like in this video alone, or do you must doing audio editing? Have a mic who sounds so good so that you not need audio editing in the end must be a dream...Dude you have a great beard! Mine is half that lenghth (front chin side) it's ok lokks good but it not growths ..I don't know the heck why my beard not growths longer....Super video this cheap mic sounds great -peace and have a nice day!
My question is if you will use this mic in fb live and your going to sing like karaoke. And you are broadcasting it in live. How the music can be heard. Bec when i tried this i only hear my voice and not the music. Just asking
Doesn't sound so great to me. Maybe if you had to add some processing you could improve it quite a bit, but not sure if you can escape that very digitally compressed sound I'm detecting.
i bought this to record guitar for tiktok and what not, though i am having trouble getting the recording i’m hearing from my headphones onto my phone to post it. Any tips on how to manage that?
Hello sir i just got this mic and I don't want to regret it i just wanted to know if it is good for ASMR? And do i have to turn on echo a little to get the sound there more because when i turned it off i had to be very close to my mic buh turning it on it gave the asmr vibes pls pls i hope u reply🥺 thanks.
bought two of them but my Mac only recognizes one of them, so now I can't use those two to record me and my friends. I followed the right steps with Audio-Midi-Setup, but it's always just one of them popping up on my sound settings. do you have any tips?
Hi ! I bought 2 of this but it doesn't work together on my mac. There is only one of them detected by my mac. Do you know what can be the problem please? (They both works properly separately).
when i connect mine to to my iphone 14 it still only picks up on my phone mic and not the microphone itself:/ everything turns on and i can hear myself through my headphones but when i watch the video back the audio is being picked up from my phone, any help?
I got it two weeks and had no problems till today… Sadly the adapter doesn’t works anymore only sometimes so I have problems connecting it to my phone/tablet I always need around 20 Minutes till it finally connects…
I’d recommend an AT2020 usb or XLR version or the Samson Q2U which has both. The Samson is a dynamic mic which will have a boomy close up pick up pattern and the Audio Technica is a condenser which will be more “accurate” depending on the type of singing.
In the box I got the microphone the usb thing to connect to my phone was pretty hidden in the foam thing so watch out because I was about to throw it away Also 10/10 microphone And also the box for the mic changed
I have an issue, when I hear myself with the mic (with headphones in) it sounds great, but when I actually hear it on OBS, or people in discord hear it, it makes a very distracting robotic sound in the background
Check your sound output device. There’s a headphone port on the back of this which it may be switching to. You can set the default sound output in windows by clicking on the volume icon on the taskbar and then the pull down.
@@TheNetGuy Sorry. Every time I plug the microphone in, I lose all sound. I'm not using headphones. There is nothing on the drop-down menu. My PC shows that it has recognised the microphone. But I'm not getting anywhere.
@JLaw954 where does your sound come out of right now in the PC? Desktop speakers? There is a sound output port on the microphone that windows is probably moving as the default when you plug in - thus you get no sound. I bet if you plugged headphones in you’d hear the sound there. To avoid this, change the default sound output back to the rear PC audio.
@@TheNetGuy Doesn't make sense the more I think of it because you would think that the buttons would be located at the front for the convenience of not having to constantly twist your microphone but nah :D
Can I plug this into a usb outlet charger, hook it up to my iPhone and record straight with my iPhone or do I still need to plug it into a computer to capture the sound? Or would a straight video recording still have the same sound coming from it?
I just got this for my iPhone 15. I’m not sure if all apps are compatible with it and in the manual it even said Facetime was not supported. But I was able to record a video directly on my phone in the camera app. Unfortunately I had to unplug the microphone to hear the video. I do have a computer but I did not need to use it to record with the microphone.
hey I have this mic and im wondering if its possible to mute background audio such as my keyboard, I was originally using my headphone mic but it just stopped working and i need to use this mic can you help me?
The RTX has broadcast tools which can reduce background noise in any application. Otherwise you can use some audio filters in OBS if you’re streaming in it to clean up audio.
Yeti makes good mics but noobs don’t know how to use them (talking to the wrong side/end). This is a budget mic, the Yeti is not :) You can mount the yeti to a boom arm, this you can’t. 🤷🏻♂️
How close does your mouth have to be to it roughly? Do you prop yours up on like a box or something so that you don't have to hunch over? Just curious lol
I just got this mic today and can’t figure out why it sounds like garbage. It keeps cutting my voice out mid word while talking and like I’m talking in a pot.
@@TheNetGuy sorry just noticed you replied. I returned it for a Maono mic. Pretty sure the issue was just needing to setup the filters better or something
I've just purchased this mic too and it's fairly decent. You can enable noise cancelation by holding down the mute button.
Oh nice!
Thanks for the tip 😉
thanks
You have blessed me bro
It's a good starter mic
Just got this microphone for Christmas for my podcast with my best friends and it works so good!!
this was 10 bucks while in black friday in korean with full blown mike arm.
that was really steal
I have this microphone and I use it for ASMR and it's really good! Also love your channel!
That’s awesome. My daughter is in love with ASMR, I’ll have to send her your channel. Drop your link below for others 👇
what settings are you using for ASMR?
Just don't spit the mic..
@@HaharuRecords😂
i got the boom arm version of this mic for 12$. what a steal!

This mic seems like a great value. I would love to see some arm mounting options from the manufacturer/ seller.
Yes!
there is one now

Same. What happened po?
are you on macOS?
I have the version with boom mount kit. Its a decent mic for the money. i agree, the mute is noisy.
Thanks for watching and thanks for taking time to comment.
if u use it in bandlab, can u hear the instrumental or beat while recording? or just the audio of your voice?
Yeah you can just did it. And it's pretty damn amazing for a cheap microphone
got this mic for £10 on 70%off aliexpress also came with an included swing arm !
Please l purchased three of this zeal sound .. l want to start a podcast .. please l tried connecting all three mics into my laptop and the sound was bad .. please what can l do to improve the audio sound 😊
Does this have a screw to fit a microphone arm to?
Thanks for the solid review.
OMG, just got it on Monocashback for only $47! and an extra $3 in cashback, it was a total steal.
Can you turn off hearing yourself with the echo?
Would anyone know if this would work for any type of console? I'm using a ps4 slim and I'm not sure how to use it or make it work
Is there any alternative I can get a stand for it? I got the mic its amazing tho!
Yeah, theres a version that costs only $3 that comes with a entire mic stand instead of a little desk stand
3:59 The last section of the manual is in Japanese, not Chinese. I also have this mic.

Will it work with wireless headphones if I connect them to my phone while using the mic cord ?
I don't think so.
Can this be used to record music on an iPhone?
yes
Good video, I hope the actual product is similar to this.

I get a mad hissing noise using this mic to record anything. Do you know what it could be?
Thank you .this really helps!😎

Turn the gain down a little. Make sure noise cancellation is off, and it should work. Also check out the Samson Q2U - way better for that use.
@@TheNetGuy thanks you sir.
Would this work with bandlab

The same problem
Does it work with ps5, and if it does can we hear what it sounds like
Thanks for you video, Can I use this without the earphones?
Yep. And hold down the mute button for noise cancellation (I learned later)
Mine is coming on Wednesday I think 😊
Yes it heavy? Or light weight?
Medium 😂. It’s not chunky like a blue yeti, but not garbage like a Zoom ZD1.
Hi ! I bought 2 of this but it doesn't work together on my mac. There is only one of them detected by my mac. Do you know what can be the problem please? (They both works properly separately).

I just bought it. The blue light is on but the sound is not working. Is it necessary to put in headphones or is there a problem???
Please. Any update? I have the same problem
What audio program do you use?
Am about to get myself one, colour blue

Can you use this without headphones on an ipad

Same with me. Not sure why nobody responds or replies to this problem. It seems like I was scammed.
iPhones can be super picky and change their settings after the fact. I had a great wireless Lav mic set that stopped working after an iOS update :(
I got it two weeks and had no problems till today… Sadly the adapter doesn’t works anymore only sometimes so I have problems connecting it to my phone/tablet I always need around 20 Minutes till it finally connects…
That sounds off. Return and replace?
Question: do I need to use a headset with it or can I just record without one?
You can use it just as a microphone.
Will this work with voice overs on TikTok,?
Same question I got
Thank you for this video. Do you recommend it for amateur singer who can’t afford an expensive mic ?
I’d recommend an AT2020 usb or XLR version or the Samson Q2U which has both. The Samson is a dynamic mic which will have a boomy close up pick up pattern and the Audio Technica is a condenser which will be more “accurate” depending on the type of singing.
@@TheNetGuy thank you, i'll check it.

Sounds like some sort of interference or filtering. You sure you have the right audio routing and input?
Do you have any idea what I need to do differently? As soon as I plug this in, the TH-cam video video mutes. I'm a complete beginner.

Would this work with an Xbox I need complete budget setup with a series s and been looking for a good mic for low price
Unfortunately not Xbox compatible apparently
It is but you need a xbox headset adapter, 3.5mm aux cord, & a 3.5mm splitter
It won’t connect to my phone

YES wayyy better i have this is works sooo good

what do you connect the microphone to record?
I connected mines to a pair of headphones and a device if my choice. In todays case I connectées it to my iPhone.
Quick question? can you use a scissor boom arm? never mind you cant
It’s too bad because it’s a good mic except for this
Can I plug this into a usb outlet charger, hook it up to my iPhone and record straight with my iPhone or do I still need to plug it into a computer to capture the sound? Or would a straight video recording still have the same sound coming from it?

would this work on a ps5?
like if its plugged straight in to it
Should

Got the lightning adapter?
Is this a good option for recording voiceovers?
Yep I’ve done a lot of my videos with it! If you hold down the mute apparently it also has noise cancellation

@@TheNetGuy no I have a gtx card
The RTX has broadcast tools which can reduce background noise in any application. Otherwise you can use some audio filters in OBS if you’re streaming in it to clean up audio.
Can we used it to play instrument and sing ??
There are no speakers to broadcast your voice, It's for recording your voice and then you can play that audio file through speakers- but not live.
who has a preset for processing the sound of this microphone? I will be grateful
Is this good for ASMR?
It’s a solid mic. Don’t use noise cancelling with asmr.
Hello, is it true that the microphone has 0 latency when monitoring you?
For most with local headphone jacks yes
I haven't had a blue yeti before the same thing as karaoke.
This vs the Blue Yeti
Yeti makes good mics but noobs don’t know how to use them (talking to the wrong side/end). This is a budget mic, the Yeti is not :) You can mount the yeti to a boom arm, this you can’t. 🤷🏻♂️
@@TheNetGuy Got it thanks
How close does your mouth have to be to it roughly? Do you prop yours up on like a box or something so that you don't have to hunch over? Just curious lol
I actually have been. That’s just good mic etiquette 😂. I’ve been using it for a lot of my voiceovers lately because it’s so easy.
@The Net Guy thanks for the tip! I'll look around for a decent box lol. Maybe design something to make it higher up on the table lol
How’s it power through??? 🤔
All through USB
Can it work directly connected to a camera ?
No, it’s usb
