BUILT-IN HEADPHONE AMP FOR MONITORING: Samson shoe-horned a headphone amp into the compact C01U Pro microphone. You get real time zero-latency monitoring while recording. No more external headphone amps or plugging into different, and lagged, sources. The C01U Pro's integrated headphone amp makes this a complete recording outfit that's perfect for space-restricted studios and musicians on the go. Although unashamedly entry-level, the C01U is quiet and clean enough to record vocals and instruments to a very acceptable standard, provided that they are close-miked, and its performance is well above that of any multimedia mics I've tested. As far as I can tell, the subjective performance of this mic is essentially the same as that of its wired counterpart, and that model has sold well for Samson. The digital noise issue will be a concern if you have a G5 tower-based studio system, but it could be argued that anyone with such a deluxe computer should be looking for a more sophisticated mic anyway! Capturing audio at a 16-bit 44.1/48 kHz resolution with a smooth, flat frequency response of 20Hz–18kHz, the C01U Pro ensures the authentic projection of both high and low frequencies to your favorite DAW or recording app. In addition, Samson maintains its longstanding commitment to user convenience with plug-and-play operation (no driver installation necessary), USB power via Mac, PC or iPad (cable included), as well as an included tripod stand and swivel mount for optimal desktop placement. CO1U Pro is even compatible with iPads and iPhones (4S and later) using Apple’s Lightning USB Camera Adapter or Camera Connection Kit (30-pin) for those seeking to achieve pro-level sound on-the-go.

This classic USB microphone bridges the gap between mid-range USB audio adapters and professional products that require additional drivers, special software and/or excessive cabling. The C01U is USB compatible with any Mac or PC, as well as most DAW software programs. Its superior ability to produce pristine audio recordings with ease and mobility, along with the included desktop mic stand, mic clip, USB cable and carrying case, make the C01U a valuable addition to any studio. The cable included is pretty small and wouldn't fit a lot of people's working scenarios, especially the ones who want to use it with a boom arm and long off their audio source ( I had to buy an extra 3m cable to make it fit )If you want the simplest possible computer recording setup, it doesn't come much more straightforward than this: a mic that plugs straight into your Mac or PC's USB ports.

Then putting into the real-world test, the recordings it dumped sounded pretty decent (All I do is voice-overs). And after using it for a few days, here's a summary I wanna mention:

I can definitely recommend this product to a friend.
