Samson Meteor Mic USB Studio / podcast microphone Silver (Electronics)

Customer Review

The Samson Meteor Mic USB was delivered quickly, in respectable box. Supplied is all that is needed - USB cable of sufficient length (1,80m) and textile bags are. Only the adapter 1/4 "/ 3/8" lacks a microphone stand. However, the internal thread is available.
The installation under W7 is simple. In OSX release the manual of the microphone should be consulted because in the control panel of the OSX MIDI setups have to be changed. But that's not really a problem. The installation of the kernel is rejected under OSX - and that's a good thing.

The sound of the microphone is average. No real revelation, but that we must at this price do not expect too.
But what did not work, the latencies that generates this USB microphone.
Since then also quickly becomes clear why the Micro is an output for headphones. Here you can hear the internal preamplifier, reasonably delay. At the output of laptops (MacBook Pro with me) but then it sounds completely different. The latency is immense! Synchronous Overdups or even sea-track recording - no way.

Anyone who wants to use this mic for voice recording - whether in Off for podcast or movie soundtrack - is likely to be quite well served. Provided Amateur applications and connect the headphones always nice on the mic.
Everything else is not simple. With the headphones on receiving computer (laptop o. A.) connected, the sound of the microphone is light-years (for exact timing conditions) later heard.

Total: The Micro is certainly not bad - for me but not useful.
