Definitely hear the difference between processed and non- processed. All the background white noise disappeared, and the 'crispier' (I do love that) clarity is pronounced. Thanks for this in depth review. One question: how would I use it with my beloved RodeCaster Pro? No XLR connection. Advice?

@danielpujol8266 3 жыл бұрын

@Awall Digital : Major detail you badly needed to mention is what level you had the mic gain set to during this review! Given the white noise and-or how obvious the fan noise was when you turned off the filters, I suspect you had the mic gain knob set a bit high. Whiel as you mention, it's a sensitive mic too, so that adds to it. I've watched many other detailed reviews of this mic, including at least a couple that carefully demonstrated the effect of the mic gain knob at all it's levels right from 0 up to maximum - and only on yours was that background ambient or white noise so loud and noticeable. I suspect that with your filters turned off, you could have killed some of that background noise by dropping the gain a bit but pulling the mic a bit closer, (or speaking closer to it after reducing gain). Great review - but please tell us approximately what level you had the gain set at. Many thanks.

The most annoying thing about this mic is that it doesn't just simply work with Samson's own boom arms. You HAVE to buy the spider shock mount just so that you can have the right adapters to go with the boom arm. I mean... you're looking at a pretty steep cost all in.

Hi, Question: I have this Samson G-Track Pro, but I have to open up the mic volume all the way to get a reasonable sound level (but also a lot of noise). Is that normal for this mic? Or is mine broken. I also have a Jabra 510 and that sound level is much higher and even further away (??)

If it's on cardioid then be careful of where you are because it is directional at that point. My mic volume is at about 70% and it picks me up really well and its about 3 feet away from me on cardioid on my desk.

I borrowed a Macbook from my friend, and i can tell that, the Mac systems is working correctly and there is nothing unusual.

@DynamoLandShark 3 жыл бұрын

I would normally say you had a faulty device but I believe you ended up in a different situation. Perhaps you need to check the audio input properties and see what audio frequency your win10 device is trying to input. Mine tried inputting a higher frequency than what the gtrack pro actually was inputting, and it caused many problems with the audio.

Important to notice that Samson is not another Chinese brand, but actually the brand who was the first to introduce a USB mic for pro intend. Also, it's a shame that on amazon this mic is at the same price of the Blue Yeti, I live in Thailand, and with the trading agreement between these both countries, the Samson is 40% cheaper than the Yeti. And then, no need to hesitate. I definitely do prefer the Samson but the way a mic sound is also a question of taste.
