How does this mic compare to other mics when used in a noisy environment (like an Emergency Center)?

It won't work the way you want it to in a place with a lot of background noise

Works very well. I couldn't believe it. But the software and dual mic microphone cancels out all background noise. Nothing else i tried could do this. (the software it comes with is the key) don't just buy the mic, but the USB interface with software as a kit with the mic.

I can't get it to recognize my voice even in a quiet environment. I have no experience with it in a noisy environment.

Actually, I'd say it doesn't do that great of a job blocking outside noise. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it a 4. Mostly it only lets louder noises in, but when nothing is going on ingame or if there is no music, you can hear others talking quite clearly. That being said, it runs pretty much silent when on someone's head. When my ears get a bit achy, I'll set them on the table next to me, and I can listen to whatever pretty easily. HOWEVER, as soon as it is on a person's head, nobody but the wearer (or people really really close, when at high volumes) can hear the content. Also, in case you wanted to know, the directional mic does a great job at reducing accidental noise traffic transmission. Hop this all helps.

The mic is totally fine - no complaints there. I use Mumble/Vent regularly and my clanmates have had no complaints. I also don't have to use mic boost or anything like that.

It's okay. My experience is that if you hold the microphone near your mouth you can be heard even on a busy street. I've never really used it indoors.

This microphone should be fixed on a special tripod or mic stand to avoid noises. Even you need a special mic holder "spider" to avoid noises. Though this microphone is dynamic and less sensitive than condenser microphones, it will still pick up lots of noises if you hold it in hand. (And, as we already said, it is quite heavy)

I've never been on the other end of this mic. I don't know if they would be very good in a noisy environment. I've been told that the sound quality coming through the mic is really clear though, no complaints from other people of it cutting in and out or static like other headsets I've had in the past. These are by far my favorite headset I've ever owned. Very comfortable!

Depends on how many Decibels you'll be dealing with. If there's a constant bombardment of noise, the microphones will never get a "break" to allow a normal conversation. High decibels will drown out low sounds.

You do not have to yell in anyway. You can speak in a normal voice and the mic picks up really well. I have used mine in situations where speaking loudly wasn't an option and it worked like a charm.

It's a dynamic mic, therefore it will not pick up any outside noise. You can easily talk directly into the microphone or 2 to 6 inches away for best quality without any distortion. If you lean back and talk from couple of feet away, you will still be heard but your voice will sound in the distance. Needless to say this mic is simply awesome and has much clearer sound than my $300 + mics. Get it. You'll love it. Good luck.

The sound quality is pretty decent for a headset mic and is better than most mics people use online. It does not have built in noise cancellation as far as I know, but most apps and games you would use it with have some form of noisegate to account for it. It is a dynamic microphone, so it doesn't pick up a crazy amount of noise by default.

In a recording booth, a sensitive condenser mic may be able to pick up the spill sound. A normal condenser with low reasonable volume, not so much.

Sound quality is great. I work in a noisy atmosphere and it sounds great. Nobody has a problem with anything I say , as for the mic.

Yes it is a very sensitive mic. It is so sensitive that it will capture the sounds of the cars and motorcycles that drive by my house when I record, or when my air conditioning unit is on, or the hum of a speaker, or the flush of a toilet from across the house even through closed doors. However you do not have to have a pro soundproof room to record. Just make sure that as much ambient noise as possible is reduced and whatever extra noise is left over in the recording will not be noticeable if other tracks are introduced in the song. It also depends on what purpose you're using the mic for. Straight voice recording, like podcasting? vocals with midi tracks? If it's podcasting than it's not really a big deal if theres ambient noise and might sound eerie if it is ONLY your voice, while a little ambient noise is able to be covered up with other tracks, if you're using it for music production. In either case, this mic is probably the highest quality for the lowest price you'll ever find. And don't be fooled at that either, this would be a perfectly acceptable mic to have in a professional recording studio.

We use that mic at the church. People have said they hear speakers better and our recital people have used them with success. It was the best money spent so far.

If you've got your sound settings adjusted correctly then you shouldn't have to worry about too much background noise. I never had any issues with background noise while using this mic.

I would guess the cordless mics would be better but also MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE. I have since added a couple other EXACT mics like the Audio-Technica ATR 3350's for other guests on my program. We are NOT singers but for clear speaking audio, I have NO COMPLAINTS..

I've had no issue with speaking volume and use just my normal speaking voice. The mic is sensitive and like many competitors background noise in a crowded area like a restaurant can be prevalent.
