Does anyone know if this unit will work with a USB mic? I have a really nice Blue that I would love to use on this.

HI, Katheryn It wont work, the USB is only for flash drives with music files

This is for an XLR type of microphone not a USB type like the Blue Yeti. You will have to fond an arm stand specifically for USB or just generic and get a longer USB cable. Hope this helps!

Not sure if that's a question or statement... Anyway, two things I've noticed using this device for a long time now. You must use the USB cable that came with it (or one IDENTICAL to it). I've used cables that fit and get terrible results. Second, check that your microphone cable and microphone are in working order. Hope this helps.

I read that someone had that trouble. Search with this: "Samson GO MIC USB Condenser static or interference HELP!"

I bought this for my son. He claims that though the mic works with wireless and USB, the sound quality is better with USB.

As far as I know, it doesn't work with any of the latest apple stuff. The main fault of this product is its very limited compatibility. I would like to see a mic that works with any apple gadget it can plug in to, but that's not what Blue have produced. In fact, it only works with a few iPods - all old models - so I wouldn't recommend it.

Yes, I am using this with cord my Behringer microphone. I have to fiddle about with the "Recording devices" screen to make it an input, but yes it works. (Actually, Windows 8.1 Pro, but should work with Home version as well) Also works with XP; I haven't seen if there is a Linux driver for it yet though.

No sir this is an XLR mic not a USB mic. It does come with an XLR cable which you'd plug into an interface.

You might want to invest in a USB mixing board. Then you plug your mic into this unit, plug the output into the mixing board and then connect the mixing board to your computer.

Yes. I use this one with my laptop and it works with the mic: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D6NPH88/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Should work if you use the Microphone jack on computer rather than USB port. But because your mic jack on computer is not balanced, you would need an XLR to 1/8 adapter, making sure to use pins 1 and 2 and ignoring pin 3 on XLR. These adapters are available here.

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!

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

Technically, a mic is a mic. as long as the plug matches up. In this case, if your unit has a 2.5mm jack, it should be a go.

I have no doubt that you could use it with your blue snowball microphone. It would all depend on your setup. Refer to this link here: http://www.rakuten.com/prod/blue-microphones-snowball-plug-play-usb-microphone-white-accessory-kit/216730681.html?listingId=116650468&sclid;=pla_google_aSavings&adid;=29963&gclid;=CjwKEAiA2JqkBRDshIOY_9eMghkSJABvNd1QXMuqqCYZ0FciTCM7uLArjPlIm_c_yZt2dAvWty6T2RoCcObw_wcB

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.

Could be the Connecting cord attached to the mic, or a Program error within the Mic, or If you have a Linux Like me, Incompatibility issues, It's been a while since I used this mic and It only really worked with my Camera. I'd Say purchase a Different Mic, or experiment connecting it to other devices, and if you have another Connector cord try that too. Hope that Helps
