VideoMic Me Directional Microphone for Smartphones. The VideoMicro is a compact microphone designed to improve the audio quality of your videos. There is a bit of conventional wisdom that goes something like, "Half of good video is good audio." And it’s true. Say you’re recording a video of a live performance. Who cares if the band looks like they’re cooking if it doesn’t sound great; The VideoMicro incorporates a high-quality cardioid condenser microphone capsule for great quality audio recordings when used with a wide range of cameras. The VideoMicro reduces distracting peripheral sounds and focuses on the audio in front of the camera. Its pickup is more forgiving than other on-camera microphones, providing a more natural sound when recording indoors. The microphone body is made from aluminum, giving it a high level of RF rejection, and is finished in RODE's high-grade ceramic anti-glare black coating. Included with the VideoMicro is a camera shoe mount featuring a Rycote Lyre shockmount. Featuring a suspension structure composed of a rugged thermoplastic, it is far more effective at minimizing unwanted vibrations, handling and cable-borne noise than traditional elastic suspensions. The Rycote Lyre will never sag, snap, wear out or require rethreading to maintain its effectiveness. Also included is the WS9 synthetic furry wind screen with foam inner cell, designed for use in outdoor scenarios where wind and environmental noise can inhibit recordings. SPECSAcoustic Principle: Pressure GradientActive Electronics: JFET impedance converterCapsule: 0.50" Polar Pattern: Cardioid Address Type: EndFrequency Range: 100Hz - 20kHzMaximum SPL: 140dB SPL (at 1kHz, 1% THD into 1KOhm load) Sensitivity: -33.0dB re 1 Volt/Pascal (22.00mV at 94 dB SPL) +/- 2 dB at 1kHz Equivalent Noise Level (A-weighted): 20dB-A Weight: 42g Dimensions: 21mm x 21mm x 80mm. The mount will flex to accommodate the thickness of your device when attached, do not bend or force open

 I can't tell you how many times I've had to re-film videos because this microphone worked sometimes and failed other times. Avoid this. Get a real camera and mic. Seriously

Dodge this bullet.

 You can hear the difference for yourself in the video clip. The best part about this mic is it is truly plug and play. Many mics claim it but this one actually delivers it.

Great mic for the price.

 UPDATE: I purchased this mic 3 years ago. It did very little in terms of performance. Here i am updating this review 3 years later. This mic sat around for 3 years as a paper weight since I did not use it because of its poor performance

 This ME barely makes any difference on my Note 8 S4 Active or my iPad mini. It is disappointing considering I spent way more money on this when I could have purchased several cheaper alternatives that work better. Loved the convenience of just plugging it into a phone with a firm attachment but it does very little to improve the audio. I added a foam cover it did not come with one

I have the micro and the pro and this. The others are good the pro mic is my favorite. This ME barely makes any difference on my Note 8 S4 Active or my iPad mini. It is disappointing considering I spent way more money on this when I could have purchased several cheaper alternatives that work better

Does Very Little 👎 Till 3 Years Later 😳

 Additionally, I didn't find a sufficient enough difference b/w this device and the in-camera mic for nat sound. This is mostly a 3-star review b/c it was an error on my part to think it would be iPhone 7 compatible. Rode does have an omnidirectional mic that's compatible with the lightening port in the 7, but it's quite a bit more expensive than this little guy. Unless you REALLY need to isolate your ambient noise, I would say the in-cam iPhone 7 mic is sufficient, and for interviews, I'd go ahead and shell out the cash for the Rode lav+ with extender cord

Not iPhone 7(Plus) Friendly

 I also ordered, but have not yet used sufficiently to review it, one of the clip on telephoto lenses. Between the two new elements, I'm seriously considering not taking my large digital camera on a trip to Europe next Fall.

Excellent Add-on Sound for Special Situations

This seems to be a good mic so far. I especially like that it attaches to my Note 8 with the OtterBox on with no issues. The only thing I don't like in the short time that I have used it is it's size. It's much bigger than I thought it would be, and with the "dead cat" wind shield on it, it's quite huge seemingly doubling the size of my phone as I handle it

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 
 The Shure SM57 is a fixture in the music business. You see it everywhere. In small clubs and 100,000 seat stadiums. This renowned mic is used by legendary performers and the latest up-and-comers. What you may not have seen are the thousands of SM57s at work behind the scenes in professional recording studios around the world. In fact, you'll probably find it in more studios than any other mic. Not surprising. The unidirectional dynamic SM57 has set the industry standard by defining the way instruments should sound. Which is why it's used by any serious musician or recording professional. Its warm, clean sound along with its carefully contoured presence rise make it ideal for a wide range of instrument miking applications, particularly guitar amplifiers and drums. The SM57 features a uniform cardioid pick-up pattern that isolates the main sound source and minimizes background noise. 

 FROM THE MANUFACTURER 
 

Few microphones have the reputation for quality and durability that the SM57 has built up since it first hit the market in 1965. Since then, this product has been an industry benchmark to which all other studio microphones have been compared. It can be seen anywhere, from small clubs to sports stadiums, and has been used in the studio by many of the world’s greatest musicians. The Shure SM57 is also the microphone of choice for the White House, providing voice projection for the President since the 1970s.

SHURE CONSTRUCTION YOU CAN TRUST
The Shure brand ensures a long-lasting product that can withstand years of road or studio use. The SM57 was put through Shure’s famous drop test, in which the microphone was dropped ten times from a height of ten feet with no loss in input quality. Buyers can be confident in the durability of this microphone, exposing it to hours in the studio or the elements of an outdoor performance. The SM57 uses a cardioid pickup pattern to focus specifically on one source, rejecting audio from outside the pickup area. This can also be a great asset in live performances, as you can position the microphone wherever you like and not worry about feedback.

PRESIDENTIAL SOUND QUALITY
The SM57 is one of the most versatile microphones on the market. This dynamic product can handle the highest sound pressure levels without distortion, making it the perfect choice for recording high-volume instruments like drums. Many hit recordings feature the SM57 on the snare, as it can handle the noise without distortion. This product is also perfect for use with high-volume amplifiers. The SM57 can even handle close up recording on half-stack amps that are painfully loud for human ears. This microphone will help you to bring the feel of a live performance to your recordings for a better representation of your music. While this microphone is notorious for being used in the studio to record the sounds of percussion, wind, and string instruments, it also provides high quality vocal recording. Whether you are using it for spoken word or vocals, the SM57 will deliver a flawless sound while eliminating background noises. Because of its reliability, sound isolation, and quality sound reproduction, the SM57 has been used at the podium for Presidential speeches for the past 40 years.


The SM57 differs from microphones that are manufactured solely for vocal pickup in many ways. Vocal microphones like the SM58 have their frequency dialed in to a certain range that is common in most singers, enhancing that microphone’s pickup of the human voice. The SM57 doesn’t have this specific tuning, so it can handle frequencies on a much wider scale, with a response from 40Hz to 15KHz. Without this tuning, the microphone takes in the sound exactly as it is played, creating a perfect recording every time. This is even preferred by some vocalists who want only the raw input of their voice with no tuning at all.

 Just like the SM58, there's a video of this thing being run over by a tour bus so you can be sure that dropping this thing isn't gonna break it and it's not gonna ruin your day. As far as specs, this thing has a cardioid polar pattern, a frequency response of 40 hertz to 15 kilohertz, a sensitivity of negative 56 decibels and an impedance of 150 or 310 ohms. Now I'm passing the microphone between my hands to illustrate what kind of handling noise you can expect out of this microphone in a live situation. Now I'm spinning around the microphone to determine what the actual polar pattern is and how the audio changes as we move around the mic's capsule

 If you are interested in this mic, it'll set you back around 100 bucks as per usual, links in the description. And for this review, I have the mic connected directly to the 2i2 2nd gen, I will do no post processing but I may boost the audio in post so check the doobly-doo for that information. Now let's go ahead and talk about what comes in the box. You're obviously gonna get the microphone, you dope

 So when it comes down to it would I recommend this thing? Yes it's a hundred bucks. It will likely outlast you. You can get SM7B like tones with some accessories. It's great for podcasting with some accessories and for live instrument micing it is amazing because it does so great at background noise rejection and on electric guitar

 You get a zippered pouch which offers little to no cushioning, you get a microphone clip and I do not recall if it comes with a 5 eighths to 3 eighths inch microphone stand adapter and you get some documentation that I no longer have. As far as the build quality, what else can I say but this microphone is an industry standard for a reason. The majority of this mic is metal but at the top you do have a little bit of plastic that you should be aware of. It's an end address microphone and on the bottom you find the XLR port

Shure SM57 Dynamic Mic Review / Test

I’ve used this and a Shure SM57 next to each other and the similarities in quality was astounding. For either vocals and podcast/streaming, the $100 SM57 is a great pick if you like dynamic mics and don’t wanna break the bank on the SM7B. Also make sure your interface has a decent pre amp if you want it to get enough gain for your use case.

[Mic] Shure SM7B Professional XLR Microphone - $359.00 ($399 - 40)

 The Scarlett seems like a no-brainer for the price. As a personal note, I do like mics and equipment that FEELS well made, BIFL.

The sm57 sounds great to my ear. The Podmic sounds a bit too thin and cold for me, but seems well-built and looks great. The Scarlett seems like a no-brainer for the price. As a personal note, I do like mics and equipment that FEELS well made, BIFL

For the purpose of background noise rejection I can easily recommend the Shure SM57 (or SM58) and if you pair that with a Native Instruments Komplete Audio Interface you will have yourself a really solid setup for a modest price all things considered. SM57 - 130$ CAD.

I have a blue snowball and no matter what I do it sounds like asmr. you can hear EVERYTHING and loudly too. How can I fix this and make it sound better in general?

<div class="md"><p>I have a blue snowball and no matter what I do it sounds like asmr. you can hear EVERYTHING and loudly too. How can I fix this and make it sound better in general?</p>
</div>

why does my mic sound like its made for asmr????

 You don't have to stick this thing up to your mouth to be heard, even when whispering. Everything comes through loud and clear and so natural sounding. I play sitting on a stage stool with the mic a few inches in front of my strings, pointing at my face. It amazed me the first time I tried it

 Still does. With the pop filter, I can hand-hold it as close to my mouth as I want, and no pop. I will probably still get the SM-58 one of these days, but don't need it with this one, just want it. If you don't have one of these mics, just buy one, you'll love it

 This thing cost $100.00 ANYwhere. If you are buying it for less, its probably a fake.

 I will probably still get the SM-58 one of these days, but don't need it with this one, just want it. If you don't have one of these mics, just buy one, you'll love it. WARNING: Do Not buy a discounted SM-57 or SM-58 on ANY auction site, or anywhere for that matter. China is making very cheap imitations that are hard to tell from the real deal

I got this mic and the Shure A2WS pop filter hoping to avoid having to buy the SM-57 AND the SM-58. I can only afford one for now. Works great. One mic for my guitar and my voice

Great Mic. Beware of fakes.
