Apogee Hype Mic - USB Microphone with Analogue Compression for Capturing Vocals and Instruments, Streaming, Podcasting, and Gaming, Made in USA, Rose Gold

This large diaphragm USB condenser mic is worth as much as an ordinary large diaphragm condenser mic *and* an audio interface, combined! This compact mic is kept in a small, nifty box, fit with a pop filter and multiple cables for connecting to your computer/laptop/iPhone/Android! It picks up sound so well, sometimes too well! I had to change out of my baggy clothes into more well-fitting ones for voiceover because it'd pick up the fabric noise XD Depending on the preset and the gain chosen, you're going to need a well-treated room (or, at least, a mic screen!) With the right resources, this is a very competent microphone once you learn how to use it!

Very good sound and easy to use.

It's decent enough but invariably requires mountains of post-production to capture your room voice.

Maybe it just did not work for me as Apogee are normally good this to me is more like a £100 mike I guess I prefer to have a preamp and xlr mike, some people like this mike, I think it is more for convenience as it is plug and play On this occasion it did not work for me

Apogee is known for making solid products. This latest mic is beautifully made and they provide it with a great little case, with almost everything you'll need to make great recordings. I use it for voice-over, especially when I need portability. It is one of the few quality condenser mics that can plug directly into the iPad and work without external power. I tried a larger Marshall USB mic and it required a powered camera adapter -- that can be a pain, if you're trying to record where an outlet is not easily available. The mic itself has some nifty features, like the (almost) zero-latency headphone jack with adjustable mix b/w headphones and playback, a fairly easy-to-use gain setting dial, and it's much-bragged-about built-in compression. That feature is much more important for broadcast/podcast use. For voice-over, many clients want to be able to go back to raw signal and hardware compression means the "original" signal has been messed with on input. But, for a recent promo-style VO, the lowest compression setting worked well for me, and it's easy enough to turn off. The mic quality itself is really pretty darned good. It's good enough for professional work. I haven't compared it to my highest-end mics, but it did the job. One thing it's missing -- that Apogee doesn't provide with any of its mics -- is a shock mount. They provide a tripod with a ball mount (very adjustable and solid), but you can easily get low-end rumble transmitted from mic handling or vibration of a table or floor. I did experiment, and the Rycote InVision USM-L (or USM) can be used, so there is a viable option. But that's another ~$70. Overall (and because I already have the Rycote), I've found it to be a valuable mic to have and I'm glad I bought it. It's not cheap, but it's high-quality & sometimes you get what you pay for.

Normalde fiyat olarak daha uygun seçenekler var ama taşınabilir olması açısından çok iyi bir seçenek. Nihayetinde arabanızda bile hızlıca ses kaydı alabilirsiniz. Buna ek olarak asıl önemli noktalara değinmeliyim. Ses kalitesi mükemmelll. Dip ses sıfır. Tam bir seslendirme-dublaj mikrofonu. Üzerindeki compressor ayarıyla çok daha kaliteli ses alıyorsunuz. Normalde daha uygun fiyatlı alacaktım ama seslendirme yapan birçok arkadaşım da bu mikrofonu önerdi. Telefondan tabletten bilgisayardan çok çok temiz ses kaydı alırsınız. Profesyonel bir mikrofon, ama fiyatı bence de çok yüksek. Biraz daha uygun olmalı. Bilenler bilir. Apogee ses konusunda dünyada tanınmış bir marka. Profesyonel iş yapanlar için özellikle tavsiye ederim. Harici ses kartı ve mikrofon derken masada çok yer kaplayabiliyor. Bu mikrofon masada az bir yer tutacak ve harika bir ses kalitesi alacaksınız. Sadece başta ses yüksekliğini ayarlamalısınız o kadar. Yayın ya da seslendirme yapan, online görüşmeler gerçekleştiren ve iyi ses kalitesi almak isteyen herkese kesinlikle tavsiye ederim.

Parfait pour auditions

كل مره تسجل لازم تعيد ضبط الوزنيه للصوت العمليه بسيطه متاخذ ثلاث ثواني لكن المشكله ان كله م شبكته لازم تعيد ضبطه ولا يلقط الصوت في كثير من الاحيان الا بعد ١٠ ثواني من الحديث

Worth every penny - I'm not aware of any USB mic of comparable quality and features in this price range. Also, support is great - the first one I received was defective, which was quickly confirmed by Apogee support based on a recording sample I provided, and they offered me to help in case Amazon had any issue with replacing it (which they didn't). I would buy it again in a heartbeat - very happy with it.
