5 Stars Easy as pie
This is a USB mic. It plugs directly into the USB jack of the computer, thus bypassing the need for an audio interface mixer. That said this is a quality mic with good sound . The ease of use is it’s best selling point. As long as you don’t need to mix two mic inputs this does the job and can save you money. If you’re just getting into podcasting I highly recommend this samson mic.

I got the mic from Amazon because it was the best price anywhere on the internet. Excited when it came, I later came to find out it was not compatible with my laptop because the soundcard did not support it. I returned the item, simple as that.
