CM003 Conference Microphone

The device arrived on time and installed easily. I did need to swap my microphone in Settings, but that's easy. It took a bit of hunting around as the instructions are a bit sketchy, but it only took a few minutes to get it done. the microphone needed to be plugged into my PC, daisy chaining it off a USB port in a monitor didn't work. Now that all that is covered, it has an attractive look, seems to be built well, and functions just as a desktop microphone should. No one has trouble hearing me, and the mute button on the unit works well. I bought this unit because I had to raise my voice to be heard on the microphone built into my laptop. This fixed the issue.

This is a great product! I had no microphone for my computer. This is easy to install. Works great. I was talking on the phone via computer or zoom meetings in no time. It has on and off capabilities so you can mute it when you don’t want your conversation heard on the other end. You can easily record messages or conversations. It has beautiful clarity.

I bought this microphone in order to host hybrid in-person/online DnD sessions at my house. The first one we ordered was faulty and didn't work. The company was quick to send us a replacement, which we still use occasionally three years later. The setup was a little tricky and required us to change some settings on the microphone's digital software in order to actually pick up sound. I think we watched some YouTube videos to figure that out. Once we got it working though, it worked great. We would use it in our living room with 6-8 people and those online could hear us clearly with no feedback. My husband and I would also use it when playing games together online so that our microphones wouldn't echo each other. The mute button in the middle is also very convenient, making it easy to quickly mute yourself if there is a lot of background noise going on. It has held up over the years and I would definitely go with this if you're looking for a microphone on a budget. I've never used it for professional streaming, but I might go with a higher-quality option if that was my goal.

Value for the money. Performs amazingly well. Arrived next day thanks for the prime next day delivery, Plug and play; just plugged it into a USB2 multiport hub; placed it on a cushion within the monitor base about 20 inches from self. According to the instruction level was set at 75. The level 70 was bit low. I input the audio directly on to an audio recording software without any DAW, The results were amazing. I was then able to compress and amplify using the software to the desired values. The key point is to record it at lowest possible level to avoid clipping and distortion. You can always adjust the results within the software; post-processing.

I received the microphone very quickly and it was as described. I have not had the opportunity to use it yet, but it was very simple to get it attached to my computer and ready for the next Teams meeting.

While it works plug and play, the problem is that my Windows 11 computer only recognizes it as a speaker and not a microphone. I have rebooted, reset all microphone and audio settings, but no improvement. I purchased multiple and have the same problem with each. I have emailed support - no answer. Avoid this product.

Update 12/15/2019 I couldn’t stand the one weakness of this device. That LED light is buried so deep in there it makes it almost worthless. I took apart and drilled a hole through it. See my pictures. I like it 100 times better now. Each of the rubber bottom pieces has a screw underneath it. A small Phillips screwdriver and drill after that will take care of it all. Prior review Works well. I did get a report of bad echo at first, this was most likely due to my pc configured such that there was another mic running at the same time, perhaps internal or on a separate webcam. After turning those off all was well. One thing I wish was better, that led light for mute is horrible where it’s placed, can’t see it well without standing directly over it.

It's very quiet unless you're pretty close to it and noise canceling just sounds muffled. It does work though, it just doesn't have a natural sound in my opinion. I guess it really just depends on what you use it for, if you plan to make videos or streaming I wouldn't use it. If you're using to make conference calls then it might work for you. Technically it's better than a stock laptop microphone, it sounds better but it picks up less which to some maybe a good thing. Your voice is clear sounding but quiet and everything in the background is muffled. If you're even 4 ft. Away from it you're going to be really quiet. If you're sitting right next to it sounds pretty good but just isn't going to work for what I want to do with it. For me the onn. Desktop microphone from Walmart is better for around 30 bucks. This didn't cost much so I didn't bother to return it.

I use several group video chats and found this microphone effective during hybrid meetings. Easy to install. The cord is a perfect length for large group tables hosting 10 guests and possibly more.

It’s a vast vast improvement over using built in mics of whatever devices we were using. currently it’s being used in a room of 4-6 people and pick up is decent. Good value.

sensacional ótimo produto

I use this to record meetings in the room for an AI Scribe. It picks up the conversations pretty well. I like the green/red indicator on the unit to show when it is active. It is easy to mute by touching the indicator to switch it on/off. It was easy to install on my Windows 10 computer--just plug and play with the USB A plug. The price is very competitive with other products, especially when it on discount during Black Friday. Would strongly recommend.

This microphone worked very well at first. However after 2 months the microphone continually enters mute mode by itself. This is obviously extremely annoying when on a call and makes the speaker useless. Even worse the return window closed after only 4 weeks - which is outrageous. DO NOT BUY THIS SPEAKER!!!
