TONOR USB Microphone for PC, Cardioid Condenser Computer Mic with Tripod Stand, Pop Filter, Shock Mount for Gaming, Streaming, Podcasting, YouTube

This is a great product for the price. The value alone is worth the purchase. I'm not an expert by any means, but this is a great choice for beginners in Radio and podcast in. I am just getting off the ground with a small internet radio station, and this product was exactly what I needed to learn the ropes; it's also significantly cheaper than it's predecessor: the model of this product before this. The sound quality is good, and the background noise cancelation is excellent. I have a wild toddler and a defiant 16 pound cat that tend to act up when my attention is on recording rather than them. I'm able to record in the same house with them (in another room), and I haven't noticed any of the ongoing chaos in the background of any of my recordings. I may upgrade when I get farther down this rabbit hole, but, for now, I see no need. When or if I do decide to move to a more high tech option, I will be sticking with this company. Aside from the value and quality, it is also extremely user friendly. I knew NOTHING of this world when I purchased this mic, and I was able to set this up and start recording on minutes by simply plugging in the USB and giving a few clicks of my mouse. This product took me from intimidated to confident immediately. I wish I could give it 20 stars.

I recently purchased the TONOR USB Cardioid Condenser Microphone for my home recording setup, and the results have been astonishing. Right out of the box, the microphone feels solid and well-built. The setup was a breeze, with plug-and-play simplicity that had me up and recording in no time. The sound quality is excellent with a clear, crisp output that is a significant upgrade over my previous microphone. The cardioid pickup pattern does a fantastic job of isolating the main sound source and minimizing background noise, which is crucial for my podcast recordings. The included tripod stand, pop filter, and shock mount are valuable additions that enhance the overall recording experience. The pop filter effectively reduces plosive sounds, while the shock mount minimizes vibrations and handling noise. The tripod stand, though compact, provides a sturdy base for the microphone. I appreciate the adjustable angle of the microphone on the stand, allowing me to position it for optimal sound capture. The lengthy USB cable is also a nice touch, offering flexibility in positioning the microphone relative to my computer. Moreover, the microphone's aesthetic is sleek and professional, adding a level of sophistication to my desktop setup. In terms of value for money, the TONOR USB Cardioid Condenser Microphone is hard to beat. It provides a professional-level audio recording experience at a fraction of the cost of other high-end microphones. It's a fantastic choice for podcasters, streamers, or anyone in need of high-quality audio recording on a budget. I highly recommend giving this microphone a try; the audio quality and the included accessories make it a steal for the price!

TL;DR Version: Quality Mic for the price. Wide range of uses. Easy plug and play connection. Visually fine (it's the basic one with no extra colors). Sound quality is as expected for the price range - not the best, but noticeable difference. Compatibility - tested on PC, Android Phone, Android Tablet. Long Version: I bought this mic as a gift for someone that does YouTube video uploads (mostly just news and announcements). For the price, I wasn't expecting a lot. I usually run a Samsung Q2U XLR/USB mic, mainly on the XLR side with a USB Interface. Comparing side by side, these are 2 very different microphones. 1. Ease of use - Plug and Play for all my devices. Everything recognized the Tonor Mic without needing to download anything. 2. Color/appearance - It looks like the picture. This one does not have the fancy lighting or anything else, just the basic one, which is just fine. Fancy lights won't make it sound any better. 3. Mic Quality - for a mic in this price range, it's not that bad. The desktop stand with the shock mount is actually pretty decent. Of course you can always remove the shock mount from the tripod and attach to another mic stand of your choice with standard threads. 4. Sound Quality - This is where it is not a 5 star mic. Granted, you cannot expect $100 sound quality from a $30ish mic. My biggest issues with any mic is a) how does it pick up my voice? b) what background sounds does it pick up? It picks up my voice just fine, but the background noise, especially my computer fans running, would definitely need to be edited out. I was pleased that there was not a lot of room echo picked up on the mic, just the ambient sounds within about 2 feet. Without a gain control on the actual mic as some USB mics have, it's impossible to directly control how the mic records for many applications. 5. Compatibility - I was surprised on this. I've never really attempted to plug a USB mic into my phone or tablet that was just a dedicated mic. The recording quality on those were the same as the PC. The integrated mics seem to have some noise cancelling on them, whereas the Tonor mic picked up a LOT more of the sounds. It also picked up my voice much louder, and the mic was about 24 inches away from me. Overall - I would purchase a few more of these for my digital music class. I teach 7th grade boys, so I expect many things to be broken. For the price, the quality is fair enough to justify.

If you have a quiet work area, this is an ideal microphone at a low cost for Zoom or Teams calls. It's also an ideal entry level microphone for recording podcasts, etc. I don't recommend it to use with Cisco WebEx and here's why: This microphone relies on the web conferencing software to ensure the mic levels are balanced and that software prevents the microphone form sending the conference audio feedback from your speakers back into the call if you aren't using headphones. Both Zoom and Teams work great at this with this Mic! My WebEx calls usually ask me to speak up... and only when I hover within inches of the microphone will I sound adequately loud. On Teams and Zoom I don't need to think about how I sound at all, this mic sounds clear from any chair position in the room - including standing nearby and talking. In terms of sound quality - It sounds much closer to the natural sound of your voice, closer to how you naturally sound "in the same room". For a comparison, the Jabra 750 wireless conference call speaker "puck" makes your voice sound like you are in a "tin can", for 10x the cost of this microphone... However, in fairness, that puck speakerphone is portable, compact and works in a larger set of background noise scenarios and it performs the same on Zoom, Teams, WebEx, etc. Highly recommend for the home office user, working most of their day in Teams or Zoom

Been using this for around 3 years now and it has yet to have any problems. Simple plug and play is great and i've had no complaints from friends about noise or voice issues. This mic is great at noise suppression! I have 2 refigeratiors, 2 dehumidifiers and my furnace down here running all the time and in discord they don't hear any of it 98% of the time. This mic picks up your voice well and can be put rather far back and still be heard clear and at a good volume. I have a fairly large desk and have had it on the end of my desk and even higher up on a book shelf next to my desk at one point and always heard at a good level. At this price point I don't expect super quality but over all at this price it has overexceeded my expecations! Hope to get many more years out of this, for just gaming and hanging out on discord this is a wonderful mic to have!

Records very good. Excellent quality

Disclaimer, I am NOT an audio engineer/expert. For my purposes, speaking voice recording, the mic sounds just fine. Though I do not have an expensive dynamic mic to compare it to. I have the mic installed on a boom (K&M 25400), to position the pop screen one to two inches from my mouth. This gets the mic as close to my mouth as I can, which reduces the pickup of ambient noise. Ambient noise pick up is one of the complaints of this type of mic. The little tripod is close to useless, to me. The mic is way too far from my mouth. So, I have to crank up the gain, and that picks up a lot more ambient noise. Especially the keyboard. The closer the mic is to your mouth, the less mic gain you need, and the less ambient noise you hear. But you do have to learn to talk with a "mic voice," and not whisper. If you talk softly/whisper, you have to crank up the mic gain, and by doing that you also increase the pick up of ambient noise. The price, on sale, made this a great buy. I'm waiting for another sale to get a second TC30. BTW, I am running it on Win10. With the mic on a boom and a couple inches from my mouth, I had to turn the Windows gain down to 70. At default 75, it was too loud and distorting. I have to rerecord those videos, to fix the over loud distorting audio.

When it works, it works well. However, it started cutting out every minute or two while I was recording. I did troubleshooting, and it's definitely the mic. I wouldn't recommend getting one if that's a common problem.
