- I know usb mics arent exciting but with all the zoom meetings, home schooling and video conferencing going on this wireless usb has become something I use everyday. whats unexpected is how far it can transmit clearly, well beyond a city block which you will never do on a zoom meeting lol. It also has a usb c adaptor to use with compatible devices.

That is one of the best review i have seen after going through seven of them online -
wireless mean no wire , so the intention here is to say that you can move around while still being connected
And you demonstrated that by moving away from the recording source - That is what we the viewers are looking for - Great stuff .
This is the best videos I have seen. Very straightforward, organized clips to show difference in sound quality.
Please make more product reviews- your very professional. We need more profesionalim on youtube how-to/product reviews.
I'm a simple man. Ray upload, I smash the like.
Lol Hey thanks for the vote of confidence. Every now and then I do upload a dud though so be careful rolling that dice 😂
Thanks for the good review Ray; I have not seen you for a while. Take care, man.
Hello thank you, yes CZcams favors those who upload often but that ones are twice a week thing is a treadmill I'm not willing to jump on.
You have a great show. I will check this mic out. Thanks for making the video!
Awesome thanks for checking it out. One of my recent videos about an audio mixer I used this lapel mic plugged into it to isolate sound by the roadside
Great video. Test was very practical. I may have to pick one of these up. Thank you. -Alberto
Hello Alberto thanks. I still don't know how far it can transmit it's incredible, farther than my camera microphones
The mic you're using sounds great. I go through so many mics trying to find what works best. I haven't found one yet. Well, I found one but it isn't wireless and it requires a battery. You have a nice following and your channel looks so clean .
Hello good to hear from you again, yes I've been doing CZcams for about eight years so I learned from making a lot of mistakes. the microphone you hear me open and close with is also a wired microphone that uses a battery but it is the cleanest and best microphone I have so I just keep using it. It has a 20-ft cord also so I rarely need to use the wireless ones. It's called Maono. I reviewed it probably 3 years ago on the channel. What microphone are you using?
@@Raychristofer Boya, with a 10 ft. cord and it doesn't have a battery indicator to inform me when the battery is low or if it died. Lately, I haven't used anything except the internal mic from the camera because I have had too many problems with mics chopping up my words and I'm unaware until the video is complete. It is so frustrating . It's happened many times. I have a Rode Mic Go and it crackles on the hot shoe of all of my cameras, but works well with my Mac Book Pro.
@@ItsMyLifeDaralynn I know what you mean when I started I used to talk to the camera also. I also didn't know the importance of setting the white balance so indoors I sat next to a lamp and the light shining on me made everything Orange. It's one of those things once you find what you like just stick to it. There's a Facebook group I think the name is Amazon photography reviews and there's lots of companies there who will give you gear in exchange for an Amazon review. most times they'll ask you to purchase it first and they refund you after the review. I got some lights and microphones and tripods that way also.
Really appreciate your review - you do a great job :)
One thing you address that I had not seen elsewhere was the issue with synching the sound and video with cell phone usage - any workaround on that, or do I need to look into that other system if I really want the video to record to / stream from a phone?
Hello thanks so much. Yes I recommend using a standard wireless system for cameras as they almost always come with a cell adaptor with the three black rings. I reviewed the pixel mk7 about a year ago that would be a good option . Hope that helps
Hi Ray, I like your reviews. Succinct and to the point. I picked one up for $34. Keep it real Bro'! Don
Great review. I purchased the alvoxcon lav mic because of your last review. Great products at a good price.
Hello thanks buddy, yes that microphone is the only reason I was able to make that skateboard review, all my other units may have sounded a little clearer but they broke up if I tried to ride away from the camera too far . The good thing about this USB mic is it seems they fixed the hissing issue. How's the kayak? Something tells me you might not try taking it to work again
Hahaha no I won’t be kayaking to work again any time soon. But I am kayaking for 3 days around a beautiful island in 3 weeks time. Have a few hiking videos coming soon too. I hope you guys aren’t too locked down, I’m not seeing much in the news about USA anymore.
@@Beyondthebackyard-au you know it's strange they used to report coronavirus numbers everyday and the deaths but it seems so normal now that we don't see them as often either. No we're not lucked down, honestly that's probably why that thing is here to stay. Do you ever run into Crocs when you kayak and will you be making a video of this island exploration?
Raychristofer yeah I do plan to video it. I don’t have to worry about crocs. I’m in Brisbane and croc country starts about 500km (300 miles) further north. But I guess they’re much like gators, as long as you don’t fall in you’re safe 😂
Man, what a helpful, no-nonsense review! Seriously, thank you so much for this. Subscribed! Hey, quick question... I'm looking to use this for a live-streamed talk show that will have multiple guests. I'll need to run three of these at once from a single computer. I have a usb hub so it'll be no problem plugging them in, I just want to know if you think that can be done and work properly.
Hello thank you, that is a super good question. I think it should work but its best to reach out to Alvoxcon on their instagram or facebook. theres lots of audio tech im still learning bro.
@@Raychristofer Cool cool, I'll look into it. Thanks again for the video!
Thanks for your honesty! Great and inspiring test1
Awesome thanks, glad it was helpful
Thank you for the great review and demonstration.
It sounds good even in the cell you used
Nice review on this one and it seems that ALvoxcon is on point. I bought the other wireless one that you reviewed and found it to be pretty high sound quality and was really happy with it. This one sounds pretty good to and transmits a good distance for wireless back to the computer. Seems that their products are pretty high quality for a budget price and I like that. I've been getting by so far with my old school Logitech C920, but if I'm in the market for a wireless usb mic will def check this one out.
Hello Tekno how are you, I see you've been working on more gaming videos. Man I've got a problem when I start a game I can't put it down and it's a problem lol. Thanks for checking this out sometimes I think you're my most loyal subscriber
@@Raychristofer I'll be honest my man, I get excited when I see one of your vids regardless of the topic because you are just such a good presenter of the info, but do it in such a relaxing and down to Earth manner that it's actually relaxing to watch your videos. I'm also kind of a tech guy so always like getting insight on products.
Gaming is tough because there are just so many games you wind up wanting to play. I got the new Avengers game last week and played for about 5 hours the first Friday night, really loved it, but haven't been able to get back to it because I've been playing a bunch of Raid to make some content finally. There's also Overwatch and a bunch of other ones, so tough to balance time to game, work, and then time spent making content, especially with my content creating PC and hardware starting to get a bit long in the tooth. I'm trying to put a bit away each month so come X-mas I can get myself a new setup and finally upgrade to adobe(for both photo and video) since I'm still over here working with this dinosaur called Windows Movie Maker, haha.
@@TeKnoVKNG23 Dang movie maker, youre a legend lol. Ive never tried adobe or final cut I think Id get a headache trying to learn it theres so many options. Im using a european editor called Movavi and its very affordable I think it was 40. bux and has more features than I will use. my old pc just ran out of memory and locked up even when i deleted stuff. I went to a place that recycles computers and they happened to have a Dell gaming rig an XPS system, they sold it to me for 250.00 which is crazy, now my video renders instead od 55 min are 12 minutes. I still have alot to learn though.
@@Raychristofer I may have to check that out, I don't like how Adobe went to a monthly subscription service vs. being able to buy and use the software, but I need a photo editing program as well so I can start taking advantage of this D700, lol. Computers can be messy, but I've built my last 2 so can tinker around with them a bit to keep them going, but the one I built 5 years ago got a fried power supply from a lightning hit and I didn't catch it for a couple of months and the electrical surges eventually took out the hard drive and cascaded into other stuff. I managed to catch it in time to salvage the mother board and clone the hard drive, but now about 6 months after that it's starting to go again and my capture card is 7 years old and starting to glitch a lot so it's just time to upgrade. I'm hoping to actually catch a newer gaming PC prebuilt on sale around the holidays so I can just use my current gaming PC and take all the games off of it and use it for content creation. Always an adventure, lol. That's a heck of a deal on that Dell and it's amazing how getting some upgraded memory and a graphics card helps out the render time for videos.
@@TeKnoVKNG23 The photo editor I use is faststone image viewer and its free, it has pretty much everything I need for editing my film scans and when I need more detailed layers or special effects I use Pixlr editor its also a free online editor , thats what I use for my youtube thumbnails. have a good night
Great honest review as always!
Hey bro thanks for checking it out, this is one of those videos that won't ever be popular but I think it's relevant for the time we're living in
Thank you for such a great review.
You're welcome bro
The one ring on the 1/8" mic means that it records in mono. Two rings would be stereo
I have never seen anything like it before. Thanks. Did you process the sound or leave it as it is? I hear some high frequency noise when you speak. The sound quality is not very good, of course, but if you take it in order to communicate by zoom, then this is enough. You know, I like the sound you wrote at the beginning and end of the video. And it was clearly not recorded on what you were reviewing. This is the sound you need for filming video and movies.
Hey how you doing big bro? You are correct the microphone I used in the beginning at the end is a powered lapel mic that I've been using for years, I reviewed it about 3 years ago on the channel it's called maono. It uses two LR44 batteries and has like a 25-ft cord. My only problem is it is it is omnidirectional so when I'm outdoors it picks up sounds from cars and birds around. What is unique about this USB mic is it's unit directional so it mostly picks up sound right in front of it and isolates things from the side and behind the capsule, my air conditioner unit was very loud and I'm shocked that I didn't hear it at all. I'm on a permanent mission looking for the perfect microphone that sounds like the maono but is unidirectional. Yes this microphone sounds good enough for conference calls definitely but I wouldn't hand it to Mariah Carey to sing at a concert LOL. The company Fifine sent me a microphone to test which sounds just as good as the maono and it doesn't need batteries . Remind me to send you a link to a microphone I reviewed 3 years ago it's wireless and it's only about $40 and it's unidirectional and sounds great
@@Raychristofer Thanks, not bad :) I think that most of the viewers of the channel do not hear these details. But when I listen with professional headphones, I hear absolutely everything, every little thing.
Great video thanks
What mic system are you using at the start of the video? The sound is rich and full.
I want to use it on a IMac - is it possible?
That I'm not sure, click the Amazon link and it will show you the specs,
@@Raychristofer It works. and it is a good mic!
Can this also be used for ASMRs? :D
Hi Ray,
I officiate weddings and wanted your advice on the type of microphone you could suggest I could use whilst performing a ceremony so the guests can hear me.
Thanks Anj
Very helpful video. Thanks, Ray!
dope!!
Thanks danger man, many of us are using zoom now in ways I never thought I would.. what do you do for a living and what state are you in
hi, teach in a big classroom and i use a smartboard TV with speakers on it, can i use this wireless mic withouut a computer or phone but directly through the speakers of the TV?
Does this work on iPhone?
what is the duration of the transmisor battery?
Can you please test it with an android phone sir
Can we use this on a smart phone and is this available in India. Please respond asap
Hello how are you? Yes you can it comes with a phone adaptor, the party with me on the front porch was filmed with a phone and also the part where I walked down the sidewalk to the end of the block
Just got this mic and for me it has lots of static noise?
You know what that's not supposed to happen. Every week I see a lot of people purchasing that. Honestly I would return the one you just got. Or exchange it or plug it into a different computer at a different location to see if it behaves exactly the same before you return it
@@Raychristofer thanks for the reply yeah i may end up sending it back because i cant try on another computer atm
How long does the tx charge last?
Cost?🇮🇳
Great review! Thank you.
