I make videos and a yell a lot, to say the least... Right now I use a blue snowball and it peaks very easily, does this mic cut back on that?

I have yet to peak this mic, though I have not actually yelled into it I do speak quite loudly.

Hello, I use the mic to video football games on the sidelines. I always had the mic on but tried with it in normal position and extended range. I can pick up a lot more action (voices of players and coaches) in the extended mode. It does make a difference. I never turned it off before.

Very good question. I don't believe it's that noticible with or without if you have a really good quality mic. However I have the 200 dollar blue yeti so I can say it does improve overall quality

This is the best mic that I have used. I think it will do a good job for you and help your problem

I would say loud. I dont consider it loud but while playing games with friends in skype or other Voips They have heard the clicks clearly. I do however own a Blue Snoball mic.

The Mic works really well, but some voices carry better than others. It's always best to encourage people to hold the mic close to their mouth. We're very happy with the mic.

Excellent for vocal. As good or better than snowball. Adjusts easily with the headphone jack and volume control on the mic body. Hope this helps,

No issues as far as I've had it. It's only been 4 months but overall amazing mic!

Guys I just bought the zi6 and realized that the sound qualify wasn't very good so thinking about returning it and buying the zi8. What would you be the best microphone to buy if I'm doing some recordings for youtube and sound qualify is pretty important? Something that allows you to be 8 feet from the camera and still have good sound quality. Maybe a lapel mic?What do you recommend?

I've only used the mic once. I'm not sure because I primarily use this only for music. Sorry I couldn't help.

I'm no expert but, any good mic requires you to be fairly close unless you are looking at using a shotgun mic. With this mic, I suggest you be about a fist length away. This is an extremely good mic, it compares to my Heil PR 40 which cost me about $340.

My friends seem to have no problem with my mic. If you'd heard some of their headset mics you'd probably be quite satisfied with it too. For example, the Alienware headset doesn't have any noise cancellation and picks up a great amount of background noise, and the Razer Kraken Pro has great sound quality but a poor quality mic. Those 2 are the main ones everyone i've seen is buying, I have seen a great many other mics and this one so far beats them all.=)In my opinion, if you have the black shark's mic the correct distance away from your mouth, its sound quality is unbeatable next to a singing mic or something...
