From vocals to acoustic instruments, from drums to guitar amps, this microphone guarantees clear and accurate reproduction of your sound.
Customer Review: Nice form, weak execution
I was very pleased when I opened the box and found a nice chunky, seemingly heavy duty microphone. The hardware is well crafted with good fit and finish. I plugged it in and it self installed quickly and without incident. Now, having tested the microphone for several voice only projects using multiple software applications, the quality of recordins was poor at best. In all cases the volume was VERY low, tinney, and digitized. To eliminate the possibility of computer malfunction or software limitations, I tested this on three computer with two different software applications all with the same results. I would not reccomend this solution.
Customer Review: NOT FOR MULTITRACK RECORDING
For multitrack recording, this mic is useless. It shuts off all other sound coming from the computer. For multitrack recording, you need to listen to previously recorded tracks while adding more tracks. With this mic it is impossible. I have other USB mics that work just fine. Whoever designed this device was not real intelligent.

White USB Noise Canceling Stand Microphone Vol Cont On/off

Cyber Acoustics A-8000 White USB Noise Cancelling Stand Microphone Vol Cont On/Off
Customer Review: Guess my voice was noise
I bought this to use with Vent, TS and eve voice. Either they could not hear me (useing XP pro with creative labs soundcard all drivers updated) or there was buzzing sounds from cranking up the volume in the software. At any rate I ended up trashing this and going with Gigaware desktop mic which works fine.

Customer Review: Excellent Piece of Equipment
Wow, what a difference! I am a Dragon Naturally Speaking user. I really like the product. However, whenever there is background noise, Dragon Naturally Speaking stops working. So, I bought the TP100 by VXIParrott. Not only does Dragon Naturally Speaking now work even when there is background noise, but about 90% of the errors that used to occur when I used the old headset (the one that came with Dagon Naturally Speaking) have disappeared. It's wonderful! I am a Windows Vista user. The setup for the headset was a no-brainer. I plugged it into my Sony Vaio laptop and about 30 seconds later my machine was ready to go. Now, if someone would come up with a way that I can dictate to my computer in public... =>PW
Customer Review: horrible support
Purchased the TP100 here. Needed updated drivers for Macintosh to make it work. Seller wouldn't help or take returns and simply referred me to the company for warranty help. The company is COMPLETELY unresponsive. Live chat doesn't work. The drivers they show as Macintosh (on the link) are for Windows only. Email and phone calls have gone unanswered (4 emails and 4 calls to date). Buy from someone else!!!
