Question 1

Could this work as a gaming microphone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. However you may be better off with the other Samson Meteor microphone that looks like a metal bullet for not much more at brand new price. It has a headphone adjustment knob on the front for monitoring purposes. It also features noise cancelling with the included software. Best part is that it has an standard tripod mount screw mount for accepting any tripod or portable base with a tripod screw built in.

Ignore the one who suggest the Blue Yeti microphone. You can do much better for the budget. Look up DankPods YouTube video on budget microphones to get a general idea and where to start.

Question 2

I lost the usb cord to connect the mic to my laptop.  Where can I get one??

Accepted Answer

Just run to a Best Buy or jump on Amazon to find a micro-USB cord. It's universal, therefore you don't have to use the one that came with it and they are pretty inexpensive. You could even use the one that came with your smartphone (depending upon what kind of phone you have).

Question 3

just one more question, comes with its USB cable. because they do not see it in the description. thanks for your quick respons

Accepted Answer

If you buy brand new it should come with the USB cable

Question 4

I understand that the question has been asked, but I would like to know how close one must be to get a good recording?  Vocals & Acoustic Guitar?

Accepted Answer

Not too close, because if you are too close is going to listen with too much bass. If you are playing guitar just put the microphone near the hand that you are making the chords, it will listen more clear. I used like that or 1.5 ft distance from the my guitar hole. for the voice even more far from my mouth. I use garage band to record, so i plug it and use headphone to listen me at the same time as playing; just ajust your distance in order to get the perfect balance between your voice and your guitar. It's a great microphone, I am really impressed, you will love it.
