Unlike a dynamic microphone, a condenser microphone collects sound from throughout an environment such as a room, rather than only picking up what’s happening directly in front of it. It is capable of capturing much more detail with a wider, flatter frequency response. But conventional condenser microphones aren’t designed to interface with a computer – you also have to provide a microphone preamplifier and an analog-to-USB interface. The C-1U features a built-in USB interface that derives the needed power directly from your computer’s USB input and requires no special drivers. Just plug in and start recording your masterpiece! Sound That Astounds!The incredible C-1U has an exceptionally-flat frequency response and pristine sonic resolution that ensures content-rich audio that is as natural sounding as the original source. The cardioid pickup pattern provides unparalleled sound source separation and feedback rejection. Thanks to its ultra-low noise, transformerless FET input circuitry the C-1U can handle extreme dynamics, all the way up to 136 dB, with ruler-flat frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz. Which brings us to software...Free Would Be Nice!

I have used it with both Garage Band of Mac and Audacity in Windows 10. Believe me the sound captured is just explosive! Nice warm sound, excellent for both vlogging as well as vocals! have to maintain gain at the 50-60% only, thus having a good headroom. Excellent noise reduction. Good cardioid pickup. Highly recommended at the price point at which I bought. (6500/-) was even cheaper before I ordered. Review: Best Microphone For This Price!!!! - This is the best USB condenser microphone you can buy for this price. It is just plug and play and you are good to go.
