Can this mic be hooked to a computer USB?

I would suggest that you connect this mic to any amplifier that has a mic in-put and an USB output which most units have these days. This mic does need a pre-amplifier circuit to amplify the faintest signals, and such pre-amplifier circuits are present in all amplifiers that have a mic input. This Mic also has a 'Balanced' (three-line) RCA cable connection for optimum sound-free performance such as the very annoying 'Hizz' or 'humming'.

This is an XLR dynamic mic with no phantom power. Unless you are right no top of it, it needs a mic preAmp. The quality is good for an inexpensive mic, but not on par with a professional vocal performance mic like a Shure SM58. If you want to use it to record into a USB hub, your connection would probably look like this: Mic > preAmp > mixer > DA/Converter-USB > PC. The preAmp is optional but probably a good idea.

Unfortunately no without a USB sound box which can accept dynamic microphone input.

I think the straight answer is NO. The USB carries digital signals and has 5 Vdc on it. The mic has an analog signal and requires a phantom power supply of at least 15 Vdc according to the specs. So obviously the answer is 'no'.

This sound card connects to laptop with USB. You can also use your headphones. I never tried microphone. But It should be compatible.

No, it won't. A USB mic is to plug into your PC. You will plug a mic with a balanced XLR connector into this, or really any mixer. The USB functionality of this is to interchange signals between the mixer and the PC, it doesn't actually have a USB input for a signal like a mic.

I would expect you could connect the Pyle mic to a PC. The mic has an unbalanced 2 conductor 1/4"plug. You will need a converter plug or cable to a 1/8" plug to go into the computer. The computer may be 2 channel in stereo, but the mic is mono, so you may have to work around that issue too.

not only is this NOT USB, but you cannot use an adapter,,, unless it is going into an audio interface that accepts USB - AND - that USB port is able to supply phantom power. You can not just plug this mic into your computer and it expect it to work.

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.

You're best bet is to get an XLR mic and an XLR - 1/4" adapter. I did a short search for USB - 1/4" adapter and only found the opposite...

If you want to go direct into the computer you'll get better results w/ a USB mic. Otherwise, as others have noted, you will need both adapters and some sort of pre-amplification. For the price of all that you can get a good USB mic that will go direct into the computer.

It's not a USB microphone, but if you use any audio interface you can use it to record into a computer. I personally use it to record vocals and acoustic guitar through a focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interact

Nope. This cable only splits one audio out into two. Maybe it's possible to use this on a mic plug, but both plugs would only input audio. If your computer does not have separate Mic jack, then what you probably need is a USB Mic. Sorry :P

Not directly. You would need an adapter or interface to plug this XLR mic into your laptop. This is a "professional " mic. If you only need something for the laptop, get something designed for that purpose.

Just in case you haven't noticed, there is a USB version of this microphone. Here is the link: Audio-Technica AT2020USB PLUS Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone Good luck.

It could as long as your computer has a 3.5mm input mic jack. And your audio output source has a RCA style output with L(white) and R(red) rca. Also you will need software that can support what you are trying to do. Hope this was helpful. Good Luck!

Hi, unless a microphone is listed as a "USB" mic out of the box (meaning there's a USB connector attached to the cord), I would not try to use it as such for fear of lessening the sound quality. This microphone is plugged into a USB Interface, but it is NOT a USB microphone. For my studio, I chose the PreSonus AudioBox22VSL (USB) Interface. I hooked the mic up to the Interface and the USB from the Interface into my computer. My home studio is digital (computer based), so I'm good to go. By the way, the sound quality of this mic is truly nice! Hopefully, this helps. Good luck!

Hionestly I could not give a 100% "for sure" answer on this. But I would think that if you had a 1/4 inch to 1/8th inch adaptor and plugged that into the "mic/input" port fot the i-mic that you could get the "sound" into computer to make a recording . Or you could try an RCA stereo to 1/8th inch stereo adaptor that might work as well. Whish I had a more definitive answer for you.

Yes, make sure you select it as your default audio output with the USB dongle. If not you can buy a cable where you connect the red&white plugs into it and it comes out as a dual 3.5mm output for audio and input for microphone.
