Chill Pill Rap Cap Microphone for iPod Classic, Nano 4G, Touch 2G, and iPhone 3G - Rubber Black

This microphone works great and is a steal for under a dollar. Have to pay for shipping, though, so if you are going to buy one, buy a few instead. I bought my first for over $10, lost it after a few weeks (they are really small. tie a string or something to the cap) and had to buy another. I actually bought my replacement for $3 or so with free shipping, but assuming $5 for shipping (as per another reviewer), it would make a lot more sense to pay $8 for 3 than $6 for one.

Purchased the little pill-cap for my iPod touch to record class lectures and meetings I didn't want to take notes at. Good quality mike for such a small little piece. I had to put it on a tiny lanyard because it literally looks like a pill when you close it up ---- and I've almost lost it a few times! But as far as its size, convenience and performance, its great for what I use it for.

I was skeptical if this tiny mic would perform well. After making a few tests, I was nothing less than amazed at the quality of this little thing. It really produces quite an astonishing sound either up close or recording lectures. It does however pick up ALL room noise. So if you're recording yourself or others speaking, you should record in a fairly quiet room, maybe one with carpeting. The only thing I find a little unfortunate is that it does not have a input volume control. So recording loud live music could easily distort. But, for the money and the results, it's well worth it. I wish someone would come out with an adapter for the iPod Touch 2G so we can plug a regular microphone in and adjust input volume.

These little microphones are not very sensitive, and they don't have a very wide frequency response range either. I compared a recording of the same setting with these and the built in mic on a pair of earbuds that I didn't expect to work well. The earbud mic outperformed the Chill Pill Rap Cap, unfortunately. The return policy is confusing, so for the price and trouble, the items are not worth sending back. Maybe I'll donate them to someone else who'll find use for them. If you want to try to fit this product onto an iPod Nano 6th generation, you won't be able to have the 30-pin cable connected at the same time the mic is plugged in unless you use a suitable extension cable for the mic.

Perfect. This is a really convenient microphone with good quality for doing voice recordings in meetings, which is what I use it for. It's tiny size makes it more useable than most I've used, and it's simple to sue on my iPods - just plug it in and record using the iPod inbuilt software.

I bought this because I only have a 2nd gen iPod Touch w/no mic, and I like to have it handy when I'm songwriting/jamming so I don't forget anything I come up with. This mic is clear, sensitive, and is easy to use. Just don't put it right next to the sound source if you're rocking out or shouting or something, it'll clip.Oh, and the little plastic keychain loop broke off mine pretty quickly. But for $2 I'm really not gonna care too much.

never really had a chance to use that tried it once in my laptop but i don't think it works for that. I am deployed so i skype a lot and was trying to see if it would be loader for the other person to hear. didn't work, but it was worth a try!Mahalo

I ordered this to use on textfree with voice and Skype. It does not work for ether because it goes into the headphone jack so you can not hear the other person or any other sound on the iThing. If you are buying this as a cheep headset think again. It would be find for recording your voice though, you will just have to pull it out to listen. This is a smarter buy because you plug your headphones into the microphone. New White Color Headset Hands Free 3.5mm Adapter + Microphone for Apple iPod Touch iTouch 1 2 3 iPhone 2 3g 3gS
