XLR Pin Microphone COMICA CVM-V02C XLR Clip Microphone Unidirectional Lavalier Microphone 48V Phantom Power Video Microphone for Canon/Sony/Panasonic Camcorder Microphone Zoom H4n H5 H6 Tascam DR-40

1. Pretty good sound quality for 40 bucks, as far as I see it. 2. Comes with windproof dead cat shield (synthetic fur). 3. Requires 48V phantom power. 4. I am using it with my Zoom H6, for interviews. Works great.

First of all let me preface this by stating my "normal" microphone i use with this setup is a Cad E-100s ($400 retail on amazon) and this Comica Cardiod mic.. for $37... sounds comparable. Now to be clear i am running these through a high end audio interface with compression, noise gate, and professional Eq'ing but the end result...is fresh apples and near fresh apples... The mic holds its own against a higher end super Cardiod Mic which is impressive to say the least...now the downside....this is not an impressive tie clip lavalier microphone.... the reason i say this is because when clipped to anything not right up to your mouth this will only pick up a "distant" signal, meaning unless you eat the mic its either a. not going to pick you up that clearly or b. need gain levels to be high therefore picking up any line level noise and all ambient's. (there is a low noise floor but its still noticeable, also noticed some line level interference but again very low amounts) I know it may sound strange to praise the mic and give it 4 stars when it does not work great as an single direction Cardiod pattern lav lapel mic... but it does work great as a single direction Cardiod Pattern Mic. I draped mine on a stand and it is near professional voice over quality which in turn makes it more then suitable for Twitch Streaming and Youtube videos. for the price hands down a great entry level cardiod pattern mic, just dont expect to clip it to your tie and be able to hear perfectly without turning the gain up quite a bit. The very focused cone of sound the mic is sensitive to is small, you have to speak right into that cone...when you get up close and personal with that cone...it sounds really good. Also worth noting the small fuzzy ball that comes with it makes a huge difference for plosives (p's and S's) when put over the foam pop filter.

I like this Lavalier mike. I wish that the cord would be longer.

The sound quality makes it almost unusable for interviews. Excessive high-end hiss, but the heaviest cable of any other cheap lav I've tried. It's been reduced to emergency backup in case any others fail. Not impressed.

Purchased one to test and it worked… I could get what I needed by using the EQ live and clean it up in post. Convinced I bought 4 more and after a few episodes of taping… they didn’t work anymore. Tried different mixers and confirmed they were done. Price is attractive but not designed to last longer than 5 months of continuous use.. more like 4 episodes in my case.

Good clear sound... For the price... Perfect!

Produces excellent studio quality voice. Great for video support. Solid value.

The sound is decent but not great. Comica is not known for superb audio quality so I was initially apprehensive but the microphone is usable. Hard to find XLR lavaliers, especially at this price.
