I chose this specific condenser microphone "BM-800" in the color "GOLD-BLACK" because I find it more beautiful in my eyes than the other colors... And of course, it is the most "Professional-Cheap" option.
...and that's why I decided to get it as a "SET" together with its other accessories.
I believe that this particular condenser microphone is not valuable if you don't include its other accessories (compared to buying it alone).
The only thing I haven't installed on it (see 5th photo) is the "POP FILTER"
(that isolates the "Sssss" sounds in your speeches).
Although in a test I did of my voice and the "Sssss" sounds, I personally don't notice any difference, after all, I won't need it for "Recording an Album", nor for Recording on a CD.
Let it remain in its box, and let it stay there. You never know...
And for the programs I use it with:
* Adobe Audition 2021
* Audacity
...mainly for voice recording, or generally to be used in any of my videos on YouTube, it really doesn't leave me with any negative element. I'm not a professional sound engineer, but what reaches my ears, at least personally, satisfies me.
"CAUTION"
If you plan to connect it directly to an External Sound Card (e.g. Behringer U-Phoria UM2), it is recommended to connect it only with an "XLR Male-XLR Female" cable.
And not with a cable like "XLR Male-3.5mm jack" (via a 6.3mm jack adapter), otherwise it will not work at all (as it happened to me).
Make sure to get such a cable (the first one I mentioned) before ordering the condenser microphone itself, because simply as soon as you receive it, you won't be able to wait to use it...
This particular set satisfied me for the purpose I bought it: the accessories.
So, let's start with the arm. Aluminum construction with iron screws, which makes it sturdy, of course for something cheap it is perfectly reasonable and I am satisfied.
The two pop filters are excellent, no noise from breaths or strange sounds can be heard. The results were as expected even with the sponge.
The spider is plastic but stable, so it is definitely worth the money and more.
Now let's talk about the main product... I should note that all tests were done with a first-generation Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 external sound card. With phantom power on and as much boost as I could give, the microphone sounded worse than the one on my laptop from 2015. Low volume, poor quality, and a lot of white noise. Obviously, without phantom power, nothing can be heard. Using the cable included in the set, which connects to the headphone jack, there was not even any improvement, the cable (possibly faulty) couldn't produce sound even from my dynamic microphone.
In the end, the set for the main product is garbage. If you are looking for an entry-level condenser microphone, this is definitely not the place. Now, if you want, like me, a quick solution for some accessories, then the set is quite value for money. My rating is 2 stars because I rate the accessories with 4 stars and the microphone with 0, so it averages out to 2. I think it's obvious that the microphone and cable are already in the recycling bin
For the price, you get a complete package: microphone, stand, filter, sound quality is fine, don't expect anything extreme.
It simply looks like a microphone, the accessories are fine and the arm, so a better microphone was placed on it!
'It arrived and within half an hour the microphone was burned out. It's not even worth discussing the return. At least I have the stand to look at and imagine that I have a microphone.'
For its price, it is excellent. The microphone can be driven by a standard PC Mic port, it doesn't require phantom power or any crazy DAC. The quality in the mids is very good, in the lows it's just OK and it stands out from most. In the highs, there is a faint hiss, which you will never hear in the final result. The base is the same as the Andowl that sells for 6-10€ and generally, it needs to be handled carefully when plugged into IKEA desks because it can go inside. Put something wide to distribute the pressure over a larger surface. Overall, get it without hesitation.
For the money, it works great for me at least. I use it for amateur voice recording connected to a Behringer U-Phoria UMC22 with an XLR cable, not the one that comes with the package!!
Guys, get it, it's worth it and the best mic for 20€, especially if you get it with the sound card, it's amazing
Well the microphone for its money is a gem, I've been using it for a year now. It has 3 negatives. The noise floor is high, meaning you hear some parasites. Yes, you will tell me it needs phantom power, I will tell you that I bought two different products with phantom power, a mixer and an interface with no result. The microphone did not work at all. It really only works with a 3.5 jack. I solved it by measuring the volts it takes with a multimeter and discovered that I have the model with the small board that many call "fake". It does not represent the reviews we see on YouTube that give it phantom power and it shines. The arm has a plastic at the base that wore out in a month causing me to mount it. Besides all that, the kit is very good value for this price and I can't give it fewer stars. If you do a little processing or filtering, it has good sound.
The microphone is extremely impressive for its price and the accompanying accessories! Of course, you change the connection cable on the spot and use an XLR, just like the very typical sound card that you put in a drawer and connect to a sound card with phantom power to perform
I ordered the XLR BM-800 Mic Kit, but what arrived was a microphone with USB and without any brand markings. It is a black microphone that looks like the BM-800, but it is completely different and it is USB
For 15€, I can't understand the negative reviews, it does its job exactly as it should (let's not forget that we are talking about a 15€ condenser microphone), especially for podcasts, it's just what you need.
P.S. In the end, buy it and keep the cable, because again, with 15€ you can't even buy just a cable, so 100% worth it
Hello everyone. I bought the kit and I have it for a few days, using it for games on PC on Steam for now. Easy plug and play on the PC motherboard, adjust the settings a bit for volume and you're good to go! The sound is very clear and has satisfactory volume. I adjusted the background noise and there are minimal things that can be heard, like the mechanical keyboard for example, but nothing annoying. As for the build quality, it feels somewhat fragile, so be careful not to drop it from its base. Good connection and everything will be fine! Overall, it is an excellent value for money at around 17 euros, no doubt about it.
I bought this specific microphone for 25 euros and I use it to talk in games and on Discord, as well as for some very light recording. For 25 euros, it does the absolute minimum. It has a lot of background noise and the cable that comes with the mic smells like cheap Chinese products (literally and figuratively) as it emits a petroleum and factory smell. However, it costs 20 euros, and what do you expect for 20 euros, so... the quality, for bricks. The sound... for bricks. It is value for money... yes. For some crazy reason, I still believe that if you want a light sound experience, it's worth it, so buy at your own risk!!!
I bought this specific product a few months ago and I use it in my home studio for my amateur projects. The microphone, with the appropriate adjustments depending on the space, can produce a mediocre result that sounds decent. I do not recommend it for recording instruments as it distorts the sound. In conclusion, it is a good microphone to start with, especially considering its price ($12.3... not that I would give more than that)
The microphone works fine if I connect it to the microphone port on my PC, but if I plug it into the sound card with phantom power, etc., it produces sound but with a lot of interference and distortion. It doesn't make any sense and is unusable for my situation since I want a microphone that will connect through my sound card
The product does not produce any sound at all, not even a whisper... With all the settings at maximum, the only thing it captures is a faint, indistinct meowing from the neighbor below, that's all you hear...
To make it work, you need additional devices (professional ones) and some say that even with those, it still doesn't produce good sound and requires special software... (If you're selling something and it needs something else to work, it's good to mention and write it).
If you're like me and just wanted a microphone for voice recording, don't get it, you'll waste your money because it doesn't record the voice at all... It's not even worth 10 cents...
Final thought: Good construction but...
good microphone to use only through discord but if you want the 100% it gives you, you will need a good sound card
For its price, it is the best. If you also get a good sound card (I have the Behringer U-Phoria UMC22), it sounds very clear without any interference or something like that. Definitely value for money.
Good microphone, although not excellent, nevertheless it is worth it and more for its cost. I note that, since it is a condenser microphone, one should also purchase a preamplifier because otherwise the sound will be very low.
I connected it to a sound console (mixer) and gave it 48v phantom power from the mixer. The sound was awful. Low and distorted. After many experiments, I finally connected a 47k resistor in series with the + cable that goes to the capsule and the sound improved. I also noticed that before I added the resistor, when I turned off the phantom power, as the voltage dropped (i.e. discharged), the sound improved. That's why I added the resistor. It's not my mixer's fault. I tried it on 3 mixers and the problem was the same. Otherwise, it has good sensitivity and clean (now) sound.
Give your money to something else.
Finally, I tried it in all possible ways on a monitor/speaker separately with a special input for a microphone, on virtual dj with 2 different consoles, with an external soundcard but nothing. It only picked up another microphone that I tried. I hope it was just a coincidence for me and that it was only this specific microphone with a problem!
I have had it for about 2 years, and I have no intention of changing it in the near future. Fantastic for 20 euros, and in my opinion, the best microphone for this price. I use it with a DeLock sound card, which now costs 13 euros, although I could swear it was less. The sound is very clear for its price. It comes with all the necessary accessories (except for a sound card, although I don't remember for sure if it is needed) and it is easy to set up. I highly recommend it.
Very good product and worth its money and more! It is perfect for a simple setup, either for streaming or for home recording. The arm is well constructed and all the accessories included in the kit make this product exceptional.
It is very good for its price, I have been using it for a week continuously and it works perfectly. The only thing I would like is to be able to sing live, I just don't know how
