5 Stars Excellent Product
Just want to tell everyone that previous to this purchase, we had problems in recording and broadcasting the conversation of our clubhouse board meetings which composed of 6 to ten people seated around a long a 20Ft conference table.The voices recorded were not very clear and picks up hiss and lot of background noices. When learning of this product, we bought 2 sets and placed them apart on our conference table. To our delight the recording became very loud and clear and devoid of hiss and annoying background noices. I give it a 5 star to this wonderful mic.
4 Stars Low cost, does a decent job
I bought this microphone so I could record conversations in a meeting room. It’s a great improvement over the built-in mic on my digital voice recorder. It doesn’t pick up every voice at the far end of the table, but it has been sufficient for my needs. I wish it had a light on the top as a power-on indicator (I’ve forgotten to turn it on), but that’s my only complaint. Overall, I think it’s a good value.
3 Stars Not a bad omni-directional remote
My wife is a classroom teacher and needed an omni-directional microphone for the school’s video camera for a class project. The range and quality of the audio from this remote were pretty good. Elementary school kids aren’t very quiet and so the microphone picked up a fair amount of background noise with a 10-15 foot range. Overall, a fine low-end omni-directional microphone.
5 Stars This saved my sanity!
I was doing my videos for National Board Certification and to my horror found that my students could not be heard! Audio-Technica to the rescue! With the included adapter, it fit perfectly into the ancient video camera at my school and my problem was solved!
3 Stars Good for Office or home use.
The mic works great but it uses a small battery, the quality is great, much better than the one in my mac, and it does not create feedback very easy…
