Has anyone used this device on a PC? Does the microphone work as a normal USB or similar device functions?

Yes, I used the Jabra BT3030 with an Azio BT key for ages playing world of warcraft while using teamspeak and ventrilo. It worked just fine, stereo and all. The media buttons, however, do not work with WinAmp - I never tested WMP.

I use it for voice. The quality is good to very good on both my laptop and desktop using the free Audacity software available at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ The mike tends to pop, but I put a 'wind sock over it and adjusted the mic boost in the sound section of the control panel of Windows and have been delighted considering the cost.

Using with Windows 8.1 and works very well with USB. Haven't tried the mic so not sure. But believe it can. I hope this helps.

CORRECTION: not sure if mic works on PC, only used on Mac/ipad/iphone/andrioid devices. -yes, works on PC/mac/mobile, any device with 3.5mm audio slot-decent quality for the price, ofcourse not like a bose or shure which are different league price and quality wise.

Is there any issue with using this web cam and the built-in microphone on my laptop? Hope not, it sounds like this is a suprisingly good product.

If you have a mic lying around that has the same type of connection as the mic, it may work. It is simply a standard mic. As a matter of fact, I tried the mic on my Windows 8 phone and it works well for making voice notes.

Pretty simple! Whatever it is you're using, you have to go into the sound settings and set it as the default sound output device. So for PC, go to the Control Panel, Sound, and pick it under the playback tab. Same goes for it not working with any other application like Skype. But changing it in the control panel should fix for most, if not all!Should be listed as "USB audio device" .

I'm not sure if it works on a PC since I haven't tried it. I've only used it with a MAC.

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.

Yes, it appears to be a Windows/driver issue for some systems. For more help go to Blue Microphones customer support website, or do a search for "Blue Icicle USB3.0 port problems".

I run Linux on my PC, so I can't address the Windows issue. And I don't think I even used the USB interface at all ... I just used the "line-level" output, and plugged that directly into my PC's sound card, and that worked perfectly.

Yes, works great with the PC. If you want the mic to work though you're going to have to get a blue tooth dongle and pair it with your computer. I couldn't get that to work so I ordered the PC Chat Adapter Cable Kit for Turtle Beach ® & Similar Gaming Headsets. Mic works GREAT!

I use it through an audio interface. I think it should work if you connect it to a PC, but I haven't tried. Maybe you'll have low volume but I'm not really sure. I hope you can use it without problems

Hello Mike, I do not like the microphone.. You can hear the people talking to you but the people on the other end cannot hear you like your mike is muted. If you unplug it from your computer for 15 seconds the mike will work for another couple of hours then unplug it again then will work again. I wish this was a different answer for you but its how it works for me.

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.

Yes I gifted this Mic to my partner and she is using it on Windows 8 only. It works great with Skype and Viber.
