This is NOT usb! I bought the product then had to go to a local music store to buy another product that made this product "usb" Hope this helps.

This is not a USB mic. This is a condenser mic with an XLR connection which requires phantom power. However, you could spend a little more money and buy a Blue Icicle (http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Microphones-Icicle-Converter-Preamp/dp/B001EW5YQS_) which will convert the XLR to a USB.

It is obly a usb cable. Nothing more. By the way, mine was defective, I recommend buying from another provider.

XLR connection with 48v phantom power. Either thru a pre amp or a mixer or interface with phantom power. Can't find anything on a usb capability. Hope this helps.

They claim it is a USB3, I even questioned them about it, but it does not seem to work any faster than a USB2. It does use a USB cable. It is a good drive and is probably limited by its read-write specs.

This comes with a USB 3 Cable. I've enjoyed it so far (but using it on a USB 2 port, I bought a USB 3 device to futureproof.)

it's a micro usb , the unit comes with the usb cable, micro usb to normal usb. you don't need to buy a cable . it should be in the box.

Hi Fluffy, the cable is NOT a USB....it plugs into a normal MIC jack. I was a little skeptical when I bought it because it was so cheap. but it plugs in and works good and I haven't had any issues with it yet. *crosses fingers*.

It's USB or at least the last couple I have purchased have been. Personally, I do not care for the post types.

Oh, wait. I'm sorry, I'm thinking about a self-release cable. Duh. Yes, mine came with a USB cable. A VERY short one.

I'll be frank. You do not want to use a mic that plugs into your PC or soundcard. Put your other USB devices on a a powered external hum and plug your mic into a free PC USB port. Even if you were to get a standard XLR mic you would still need a preamp that provided Phantom Power and a USB interface to connect it to your PC. some Preamps have interfaces built in.

Any usb interface with xlr inputs will work. You want to use an xlr cable to connect the mic to the interface. As far as brands go, i use Focusrite but any interface you can afford should do the trick

Mine came with what was described as a USB 3.0 cable. I don't have a USB 3.0 port, so I plugged it into one of my USB 2 ports, and it works just fine. I hope this is helpful to you.

Nope. I own that mic and it has a USB connector, not an XLR. Only buy mics with xlr or rca connectors.
