Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
Great value, if you already own a good quality microphone, saves you buying another.
Sounds absolutely amazing, recording on Garage band.....works absolutely as advertised.
Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
The MXL Mic Mate has proven to be a great buy. I have been using it for over a year now with an MXL V63M phantom powered mic and this works great. I mostly use this for web cam audio but I have used it to track some of my music as well. The audio quality is decent for the price. Not sure why some reviews say no phantom cause mine works great. you just have to make sure it is plugged into a USB 1.1 or 2.0. The only draw-back is that you have to control the input via software. Minor draw-back in my book!Bottom line: If you are looking to get audio from XLR to USB on the cheap this is a great choice!!!
Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
The sound quality isn't horrible. I losened and tightened it ans it worked fine for recording. However, the volume is really low, but I don't have an issue with it because I use Audacity and I can change my vocal volume. overall this is good.
Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
Hey in the beginning I thought it was a crappy interface with lots of distortion but is not. You get more than what you pay for, For Producing just don't be close to the mic (i use Rode NT1a) record at least 1 or 2 feet away from the mic and you'll have very good sound, the only reason why I wouldn't give a 5 out of 5 is because it needs a Microphone volume and phase switch software.
Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
My first buy online ever, and let me start by commending this site on their quality. No problems with shipping. As far as the product, it does what it says, but the stronger the mic, the more distortion you will get, and at a lower sound quality. Nice for speaking, but not for producing.
Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
for anyone that likes to record a live jam or even some vocal overs for a project...directly to your computer via the usb , things are still kind of limited... iam usin audacity, and have used it before with the blue snowball usb mic, and got pretty good recordings...i was told that this little gadget would provde phantom power and turn any regular mic into a powered usb mic...not so..there is no way to boost the sound input, and the recording quality was way too low...i even called mxl/marshall and they tried to help , but it just wasnt happening..i think i will try either that samson or the new snowflake...again , dont waste your time or money on this!!! lame lame lame!
Comments about MXL USB Mic Mate Classic:
I use Acoustica Mixcraft, which is not a major recording software and this thing synced up in seconds. The instructions were very clear, and this thing doesn't need a driver. I use the AT2020 and the Phantom works great. Amazing. My vocals sound great, and with the pop filter I bought, this is amazing. I think this will work on any computer anywhere. This doesn't take up any CPU power either, I'm using a Dell Dimension, a 3 year old computer. I'm using 512 MB RAM! (well it comes with 256 MB, but I took out RAM from another computer and inserted it here, thank God for Internet manuals.) BUY! Don't buy anything else. This will also help me in the future because the Timbaland Miko I'm getting doesn't have an XLR input but it does have a USB input. This will come in handy.
