does this impact the front microphone? I had a different one that did impact the mic. is there a hole for the front mic?

It covers the mic and camera but I haven't noticed any interference when using Skype.

It does effect the front mic. Covers it completely and mutes it to nearly unusable. I used a single hole punch to make a hole for it. Not ideal but it worked. I will say the customer service is great. I messed up the first sheet and the other one was damaged from a drop. They sent out replacements within a few days

Hi, Good question, no it doesn't cover the mic hole since that's on the top edge of the Surface Pro 2. There is a divot so the camera is not covered, but what looks top be the tiny little ambient light sensor to the right of that is covered by the film. But honestly I haven't noticed any difference in its operation at all! The main things I purchased them for, protection, glare reduction and fingerprint resistance, well they seem to work very well for these. Nothing will resist something like Cheetos fingers though! But... they should be easy to wipe off! :)

I don't have the headset with me right now, but I believe the microphone is fixed on the left side. I'm sure I would have noticed if it were changeable and I did not see that. Hope this helps. Vic, W4VIC

yes. it sounds like your mic is built into the mirror. you can always buy another mic and clip it somewhere

Not sure if yours is defective without using it myself, but I have no problems with noise when I use mine. The only way there is noise is getting feedback from cupping the mic around the top, etc. I love both of mine and have not really had issues. Hope this helps.

I didn't use a mic. but the exit hole measures 3/8" It did not effect accuracy at all, I had a three shot group at 100yds. and the holes were touching. Hope this helped?

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

keep the microphone behind -- not in front -- of the speaker unit. When the mic is placed in front of the speaker, you'll get that awful feedback. It's as easy as that. I'm very happy with the unit. Great buy for the price! And hello, it really works! Good luck.

I haven't noticed an issue. I haven't used it with a mic that much, but the couple of times I have for basic voice overs, I had plenty of gain. It's USB powered, so there probably is something to the complaint of weaker gain in comparison with a standard interface or mixer, but again... I had plenty.

hi I have the covering case an it does not cover the dual mics...everything works perfectly an nothing's being covered..only thing that can be quite annoying is the pink key pads, but it just takes getting use to..good product!

I had the same problem. There is a piece of orange / amber colored tape that covers the mic on the new board. Once you remove that, you should be good to go.

No it does not affect indoor sound. This microphone works quite well. However, if you use the origional plastic case, you will need to drill a hole in it for the microphone to be able to plug into it's port.

Hi Derek, I doubt this would fix your problem. I think most people get this part if their USB port is damaged, or the microphone isn't working properly. Sounds like you have some other issues going on due to water damage.

I checked mine just now, and with the case closed and the phone sitting on the desk in front of me, it successfully responded to my voice request. It might work better if I poked a hole through the case where the front microphone is.

I've not used it professionally. I try to record voice for videos and find that it picks up ambient noise, but would likely sound washed out if several were attempting to use it at the same time. As mentioned before, it is pretty necessary to be directly in front of the mic and pretty close to get good audio. I picked up a pop filter because I was so close. I hope that this helps.

It does not attach to the microphone. Mine is attached to the Mic stand. It fits easily around the Mic pole right below the shock mount screws onto the Mic stand. I highly recommend this. I have one and absolutely love it!

Yes it does! The hole is cut for a 1 inch shaft... not for a smaller mic like a 635a. A little spare foam or gaffer's tape will even fix that.

It's there. There are 3 little holes on the front of the camera. That's the microphone.
