Good Experience

I am very pleased with my microphone and I know that I have found the right place to purchase what I need. The customer service, followup and satisfaction is top of the line.

Go Mic

All musical gear is a series of compromises . . . This one is does what it says that it will do. Plug and play with Garage Band. Very easy to use . . . surprisingly good sound. Lovely piece of gear in a solid mount as well.

It has already caused me to rethink how I am recording some things . . .

Fantastic mic!!!

I am an internet radio DJ, and have been looking for a good quality mic solution within my budget.....I was very surprised at the phenominal sound quality it has for the price....

Excellent Mic!

It works wonderfully with Skype. The uni- and omni-directional switch is very useful and makes a big difference allowing you to get the best sound while talking to one person or a group sitting around in a lounge or room. I have used the Samson Zoom H2 for recording and am quite sure that the GoMic will also be just as good for someone who wants to record directly to the laptop. Another great condenser from Samson!

SAMSON GO MIC really packs a punch

Do not let the size fool you this tiny mic has a great sound. You get a lot of bang for your buck. If a small clip on mic is what you need then I highly recommend the SAMSON GO MIC. It folds up out of the way when you do not need it and perches nicely on top of your laptop screen when you do. With both omidirectional and unidirectional this mic has great pick-up. Clean sound easy to set-up. I was impressed.

Surprising Performer

While it is still a cheap mic, the audio quality is pretty good. Clearly leads the Blue Snowflake (which my GoMic has replaced) in several areas: (1) two patterns, (2) 10dB pad, (3) much better base design (isn't tippy) which also allows mounting on 3/8 stud, and (4) monitor jack so you can listen to yourself on headphones without latency. Is sensitive to wind and "P" popping, but that can be dealt with. Far superior to built-in laptop mics.
