Using for audio recordings: Has anyone used these for audio recordings?

I use mine purely for audio books. I can download 8-10 books at a time (I am a member of audible.com). There are a few minor flaws with it, but I have worked out a few glitches. Holding down the FF or REW buttons cause it to speed up in that function. Also if you are in the chapter mode you can skip by the chapter. I have never tried it with podcasting, even though that is available through my service with audible.com. They have you register your device and then downloading is very easy, so I can't imagine that downloading a podcast would be any more complicated than a book. The only other flaw I have noticed is that when you pause it and then start it again, it skips a few seconds ahead. It doesn't do it if you pause then turn it off then turn it back on. (Pause then off is the way it will remember where you left off and when you turn it back on it will be at your stopping place ready to go again.) Hope this helps-I plan on picking another up for my kids.

That depends. We have not used it for that purpose. The best way would be to split both the mic input and the computer audio output, mix them and then record onto a recorder (this one or another) directly through the line in input.

I have used these with and with a USB DAC dongle, plugged straight into the soundcard with 3.5mm and on multiple operating systems and I have never been able to hear myself speaking through the mic.

Yes Jeremy, they work great for killing echoes. I have them in my music studio for the same effect. I was get nasty echoes in my recordings. These fixed that right up! Good luck.

Yes. I use it for doing audio recording. Works like a charm. Very sensitive too

Sorry, Terry S., I haven't tried it on those, but it's working fine on audio. I'm pleased that it will copy music to data disks, whereas my old Koss CD Recorder would work only with Audio/Music designated disks. Big difference in price of disks. I still use the Koss to copy LPs to audio disk, then can copy it to cheaper data disks in the Produplicator. Process saves even more when I create my "masters" on Music CD-RW disks. Since I'm into audio instead of video, I'm pleased with my unit, which does just what I wanted. Good luck finding what you need. ken

I have not used it to record but I have successfully used it to do video conference with audio and 2 headsets - but I can't confirm that both mics were used - just at at least 1 worked. The only thing to keep in mind is that this adapter is for support for stereo headphone and mic (it has 4 sections on the pin) so if your headphones and your recording device support this 4 sectioned pin you should be ok. For example a Macbook laptop port and iPhone headphones with built in mic will work.

I would say it depends on what you expect to do with them, if it was to mic up a presenter, I would say yes. Background music likely ok, To deliver DJ music, or loud live performance I would say no. I have used them out in the open for weddings and they work just fine for a quite environment to carry spoken word.I have four of them and four of PV118 and that is what I use for rooms that large, I run the subs with a pair of crown xls800 and the tops with a pair of xls600.

Can anyone confirm that they have used this mic while recording video. I'm looking to record video and high quality audio without having to sync up the feeds

I've been useing them with my computer and tv and have found they work really well without messing with the sound or volume. Hope this helps.

Hi Sue. I wouldn't even bother buying these. The sound quality is pretty bad. I was going to use these while filming weddings so I could talk to my partner during the ceremony and reception but my testing proved these mics to be worthless. I would look for something of higher quality. As for your original question...I do not think they would hold up very well with sweat since they are cheap. Just in case you still wanted to buy it =] Hope this helped

I honestly don't know.. We are utilizing them on our production floor - no audio is needed. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

I use my recorder with some Church Audio mics to a preamp and run it thru line-in. I get excellent results. Some people have asked where I bought the CD and are surprised when I show them on what it was recorded.

Very well. Use them with an Optical audio output (on motherboard or sound card). Chat function only works via Bluetooth (I am not using this feature with my pc).

Yes! As the others have said this will work for recording an audio book. I was actually quite surprised when I heard how clear the sound of a recording was.
