FDUCE XLR Dynamic Microphone for Vocal Recording, Podcasting, Gaming, Live Streaming&Broadcasting, All Metal Cardioid Mic, Voice-Isolating Technology SL40X

I own 3.I bought one for voice over work. I liked it so much I bought another for my VO booth setup , to pick up when people have the bad habit of turning their heads when emoting.The third is for my home setup. It’s my mic for Discord when I’m in voice chat. I have received many compliments on the quality.I also will do some quick temporary recordings on my home setup for clients.What I like about this mic for my home use is the range. You have to be “on it” for it to pick you up. I can turn my heads and back up 12 inches and I can’t be heard. I play my game sounds through desktop speakers and wear none conductive headphones for discord. My game is NEVER picked up though the mice.

I was really happy. This is the best 45 Dollars I’ve ever spent on radio. I use this Microphone on my ham radio station I get great audio reports unsolicited. Yeah the boom microphone best 45 I’ve ever spent in radio.

It looks like a shure microphone from a par and infact there are instances that it sounds like a Shure microphones depending on how you set it up. It connects really with both USB and XLR. I would recommend this if you like a deep sounding voice right out the bat without any audio editing.

Amazing

for the price this mic is honestly beyond worth it. add some filters on obs and use xlr and this mic sounds like the shure mics which i was going to get. sounds extremely clear and warm, perfect for discord calls and in game convos lol makes me sound like a streamer

Very happy with this microphone so far. Connected via XLR to my Roland Bridge Cast and it provides good audio quality in a nice looking package. Much happier with this than the Razr mic it replaced. Primarily used for voice comms in games with some video/voiceover work on occasion. No complaints so far.

Coming from the broadcasting industry, everyone wants to use the SM7B or the RE20… Problem is, the average person like me doesn’t have $400 to $500 to drop on a microphone, plus the extra equipment it takes to make those mics sound their best. I took a chance on this purchase and I’m so glad that I did. There are so many good reviews on YouTube about it and they were not lying. In terms of the sound quality, you get deep, full base and crisp clear high-end. What it’s missing in comparison to the SM7B are the mid range frequencies. It’s not as full/complete sounding. However, with that said this microphone still sounds amazing. I’m using it via XLR without a mic booster/preamp. I can’t believe I don’t need that to make this mic sound good. And the sound floor is so low I don’t hear any hiss at all, even when cranked at 90% of my channel’s gain. I haven’t even tried using it directly through its own USB yet. I’m plugging directly into my USB interface without any external processing and it sounds fantastic.IMPORTANT NOTE: This microphone is very sensitive to plosives out of the box. And that’s because the foam windscreen that it comes with is not adequate to protect against those plosives. I purchased two different options to see which would work out better. The first was a windscreen pop filter with a gooseneck, and that worked pretty well. However, what works so much better is simply purchasing a foam windscreen that’s made for an SM7B. These have the length needed to keep you far enough away from the microphone internals and give you protection against the plosives. I got mine here on Amazon for 4 dollars. Best investment for this microphone. Trust me. It changes everything for the better. Buy this microphone! Don’t wait!

My Hopes were high. I opened the box and it look so similar to a shure mv7 microphone. It felt solid, well made, heavy and solid.When comparing this microphone to the MV7 which has a similar configuration.Once connected and tested for several streams the hopes quickly became disappointment.The Shure microphone out preforms this microphone by a lot.If you are on a budget this microphone is not bad.When using USB you need to be very close to this microphone. Not more than 1-2 inches away. It is very sensitive to the diection you. You need to find the sweet for the best sound quality. It's very easy to miss that sweet spot.When connecting this microphone to an xlr interface it performs better. The SL40 seems to be noisier than the mv7 as well as the bass sounds off, and generally the audio did not sound natural. The sweet spot is a little more forgiving since you can increase the sensitivity and provide phantom power but it still has it's issues with it.The one big positive this microphone (sl40) has vs the MV7 is a USBC port which is very solid. The mv7 uses a micro usb port which is very easy to break.I was hoping to use this microphone as a backup microphone unfortunately I had to return the microphone as it under performed by a lot compared to the MV7. It was not worth the issues for me even if it was free.If you need a dynamic microphone to reject room noise and background noise this microphone does it well but you will NOT get the same warm natural sound that you get from a Shure microphone.
