User questions & answers

Question:	Does both game volume and mic output go through the 3.5mm into my headphones

Question:	can i use my a40s with a mix amp with this mic
Answer:	The mic uses a USB 3.0 to a micro USB (mini B). Your mix amp needs to have a USB port. And if it does you might need a adapter to make it fit. Which is a separate purchase. It'll work, just not out the box.
Question:	Is this micro usb to usb 3.0 or usb
Answer:	3.0
Question:	Any plans for an xlr version? or can you use multiple of these at the same time and have individual tracks

User questions & answers

Question:	Can be used to connect straight to a laptop and record with Audacity or need some extra accesory to make it works
Answer:	The ShurePlus MOTIV Desktop app will recognize and control two MV7’s (or one MV7 and one MV88+, or two MV88+s) at the same time. When two devices are connected, you can click the MV7 icon to flash the LEDs on the panel of the microphone you’re currently controlling. In the device dropdown menu, you can temporarily rename each microphone to remember which one is which. However, it can be difficult for your computer to manage two USB input signals. Windows doesn’t allow multiple MOTIV devices to be connected at the same time, while Mac computers do allow configuration of two MOTIV devices, so long as you create an Aggregate Device in your system settings.
Question:	Does this podcast mic have noise-cancelling abilities
Answer:	I love my mv7 I’m a full time twitch streamer the only note I will say is buy yourself a good boom arm I have to order a new arm due to the microphone weight but the mic sounds phenomenal the one I have was a cheap boom arm you get what you pay for
Question:	May I know if there is any difference of the sampling Rate between 192khz/24bit and 96khz/24bit
Answer:	It's not a condenser mic; it's a dynamic. The MV7’s unique pick-up pattern keeps it laser-focussed on your voice and prevents any unwanted background or room noise from interrupting your recording.
Question:	Is this mic good for singing
Answer:	The manufacturers are ignoring the issue. We don't care if you include a converter in the box. We want all of our devices to be USB-C, so we don't have to keep carrying around the inferior micro USB cables. Just make the product $250 instead of $249 and give us a type C connection.

• [True-to-Life Sound Reproduction] This streaming mic captures every nuances of vocals, acoustic guitars and even strings due to broader frequency response and higher SPL. With 16mm large diaphragm and high sampling rate of 192kHz/24bit, it can accurately reproduce even the most subtle sound and deliver clean audio.
• [Filter out Background Noise] This recording microphone with cardioid pattern reduces pickup of unwanted sounds from the sides and rear, getting more focused on desired sound source. Also, several attachments help minimize ambient noise---2-layer pop filter prevents plosives, foam wind shield cancels out wind sound and shock mount isolates vibrations from your desk.
• [Securely Clamp on to Desk] The all-metal boom arm is so solidly built that it provides enough resistance to hold the entire set up in ideal position without falling off, and at the same time it stays attached to the desk well with its reinforced C-Type table clamp.
• [Plug and Play Setup] Before recording, you just need to connect this USB condenser microphone to your Mac/Windows computer with a USB cable, no need for phantom power, sound card or any software. The setup process is getting much easier for Skype, YouTube videos, Karaoke, voice-over, gaming and so on.
• [Put Together in 5 Minutes] This studio microphone does offer several tension knobs for articulating, which makes assembly super easy. Based on user manual, you would only spend 5-10 minutes installing the arm(desk clamp,scissor stand, shock mount,wind cover and pop filter), attaching the mic, plugging it in and getting it going.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this work with ps4 & xbox one
Answer:	would not work for ps4 slim, not recognized. Until I rebooted the ps4 with the mic plugged in. evidently some kind of driver or config is adjusted, as it is now recognized and works.
Question:	I hope this does not sound like a stupid question but am i suppose to hear my voice like a normal mic or not
Answer:	go to your sound settings, then recording devices and on your snowball mic right click and go to properties. you want to find the settings where it says "hear this mic"
Question:	USB real estate is at a premium on my PC. Is there one of these that DON'T plug into USB? That is, it plugs into the regular mic port
Answer:	It's a USB Only microphone. If USB real estate is at a premium on your PC, buy an External USB Port Hub. I bought one, takes one of the 3 USBs my laptop has, gives me 8 additional.
Question:	For singing videos, is it better to have the iCE or the regular Snowball
Answer:	From what I've heard, the snowball does actually sound quite reasonably better. I suppose it'll have to be because of a number of reasons, 1 being that there's a $10-20 diffrence, and that this is marketed as a "Skype mic." I also believe that the blue snowball has wider diversity in colour. The blue snowball also features 3 different "modes" or polar patterns.First being a cardiod setting, a standard pickup pattern in most condenser mics, very handy. Mainly picks out sound in a heart shaped radius in front of the mic. Second setting is a cardiod, 10db pad. Good for loud sources, getting up close to the talent. The third and final setting is the omnidirectional setting. "Omni" meaning more than one, in this instance more than one direction. In this setting, the mic will pic up sound from all directions.doing so will loose some sound quality but maybe useful for recording a board meeting. Overall the blue snowball iCE is a great, compact usb microphone, for the tight budget market, or in other words a blue snowball, minus a few features and cheaper sound quality.
