Does this work for windows 8.1? Is it good for computer karaoke recording?

I have an iMac and use it to record narrations. Not sure about Windows, but I bet it does as long as you have USB.

i doubt there are any DAWs that support windows 8, not very sure i just haven't come across 1, if your DAW and your Interface support windows 8 then there will be no problem, unless you are using the USB version of the mic, check the manufacturers specs on the Audio Technica website. TIP: if you are going for a NADY spider shock mount with the integrated pop filter to use with this mic, AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS!

You should, provided the connections are right. The microphone can be positioned directly in front of one's mouth, so clarity can be assured. Keep in mind that with almost any speech recognition system there will be a learning period both on your part and the machine's part. Since it works with my Dragon(r) speech-ware, it should work with Win 8 just fine.

It sure does. I use Audacity on an Asus Windows 8 laptop and have had no problems with it detecting the mic.

Yes it works on WIN 8.1 I loaded the included software, but did not try to record. I did try the live TV which it works. I prefer Media Center, it's so much easier & I have two computer so I can copy TV programs between each.

I had never tried it before, only having it as a backup for my Mac recording setup, which worked fine. I just fired up a Windows 8.1 tablet and plugged the cable into a Heil PR40 and then into the tablet and it detected and recorded fine. The Heil is a quiet mic and it would have liked a bit more gain but it was not a big issue. I could have adjusted this in the audio controls on the recording software.

I got it to work with windows 8.1. I ended up returning it b/c it stopped working after the 1st time i used it.

I am sorry but I am not able to answer that question because I do not have Windows 8.1. I have Windows 7 and it works perfectly.

I'm not really a computer guy. I can tell you that it was very easy to get up and running on our computer which has Windows 7. Just plugged it in, automatically recognized adapter, downloaded the driver and it was up and running. Works great. Sorry I can't tell you whether or not it works on 8.1. Maybe do a google search on it.

I have Windows 7 and it works fine for me. I think it should also work for Window 8.1 too.

Yes! I tested it in both my voice recorder and on my PC. Mic's don't require any special software. If your computer has a mic jack, it can handle any mic for the size it's made for (most are 3.5).

Yes, it worked for me on my Dell Ultrabook Convertible 12 running Windows 8 64-bit using Adobe Audition CS6. All I had to do was plug the mic into a USB 3.0 port and it was instantly recognized and available for recording use in Audition. From what I have read I don't think it will work if you have the Windows RT OS because it does not support Windows "Classic" apps. If your device is using an ARM CPU then it is also running Windows RT and the mic most likely will not work as there is no new driver available from Behringer.Hard to believe that the Adobe CS6 I spent over $2K for is already considered a "classic".Hope this helps.

Not from my experience. Win 8 does not recognize the microphone. On Jan 13, 2013 I received the following from Yeti - "Currently our design and engineering staff is testing the new Windows 8 operating system along with our USB products for compatibility. Please check back in the near future for more information regading this matter." This is on the 64 bit v. of Win 8.

it works on Windows 8.0 but haven't tried with 8.1. I assume it should work with 8.1 as well.

Should work fine with windows 8.1 64 Bit. There is a driver out there if you want to use it as well. Google Xonar Uni driver. hope this helpsBest Regards,Frank
