Purple Panda Wired Lavalier Microphone Omnidirectional – Attachable Lapel Mic Compatible with GoPro, DJI, Insta360, Tablet, iPad, DSLR, Camera, Ideal for Social Media Content Creators

Amazing mic for the price. Honestly surprised it’s this cheap. I make motovlogs on YouTube with this mic (tropical ted). It blocks out all wind noise and very easy to install. Small and compact

The microphone stopped working after using it 2 times. I've tried connecting it to 3 different computers and 2 other recorders but it's dead. I don't recommend this article to anyone. It's really BAD QUALITY!!! Update: I reached out to the vendor to get my warranty and they shipped a brand new microphone within 2 days. It works like a charm. I've tested it on all my previous devices and there are no issues at all. The audio quality is really amazing.

First of all, this is a very nice lavalier microphone and it comes with a useful array of adapters and an extension cable. The "dead cat" furry windscreen is almost worth the price alone, it uses a particularly fine fake fur that is really effective at reducing wind noise. The microphone itself sounds quite good, it's full range and captures rich sounding audio. Now about that claim that it captures stereo audio; IT DOES NOT. It has a single omnidirectional (non-directional) microphone capsule and it captures MONAURAL audio, there simply cannot be any stereo separation using one microphone capsule. Stereo audio requires either two microphones or a single microphone with two mic capsules and wired in stereo, this microphone is neither. The description even says STEREO AUDIO in capital letters, this is simply untrue and claiming its stereo is really quite deceptive. I knew it wasn't going to be stereo before I ordered it but I bought it anyway, it's well worth $25 but it is not a stereo microphone.

I got this lavalier mic after my prior one started getting pops and crackles. Had this since late 2019 and it has far outlasted my prior brand. I have been using this with my old smart phone to capture audio for my YouTube videos. Does a great job for a budget mic. So if you can't bite the bullet and buy the more expensive audio options that run $100+, this is a great alternative to improve sound quality over built in mic setups on most camera's. Keep in mind this will not be super high quality, but the wind socks this comes with do a much better job than I would have expected out of a $30 setup. After several events and many trips packing and unpacking the sound quality still hasn't broken down or degraded. I have definitely been impressed by the quality of sound you get for a ~$30 product. The cord length is good, it comes with an extension cord, adapters and it also comes with 2 styles of windsock(the usual foamy style and a 'deadcat' style sock). The wind socks do a pretty good job of getting rid of wind noise and other small background noises, but it's not perfect. I use a standard plug on my phone, so haven't needed the adapters. I would expect the adapters work, but I'll let someone who has used them comment on that part. I can definitely say this was well worth the price and if I'm not ready to upgrade to a zoom setup by the time this dies, I would buy another.

The sound quality is great, one of the best I've tried I use this hooked up to my motorcycle for moto vlogging and calls and it is great at focusing on voices and nonnatural sounds when you need, I can easily edit the audio to focus on exhaust sound as well while keeping the wind noise out. Especially for this price point, you can't beat it. I did find the cord a little long so I wish it was shorter and just had an extension but you can't complain about this price. It comes with a lot of accessories and nice to-haves which make it a great option.

How do you not include a USB C adapter but have all these other adapters. Every modern device uses USB C now. Literally cannot use this kit with my android phone or even my go pro hero 10 as is. Entirely useless waste of time.

I purchased this after going online and doing my research via youtube. My only disappointment with this mic is that I can't get it to work with my tiny phantom power mixer board. But honestly No biggie. With the supplied connector I've got it directly connected to the line-in on my computer and it works flawlessly. Due to the COVID pandemic I've been forced to teach from home, and I wanted to offer my students the best quality video and audio I could muster. I had an older radio-shack lavalier mic, but it required a battery and I certainly didn't want to hassle with that given the amount I needed to use this mic. The quality is fantastic, even when running the 10ft extension cord. Just be careful of crossing other power cables because it is an unshielded extension and the signal can be contaminated by RF interference from power sources. The range of the omni mic is so good I've accidentally left it in the drawer in my desk and run classes without realizing it isn't on me. It still got the job done. For me I tend to run it with the wind muff on so that my minor body movements get soaked up by the muff. WOULD ABSOLUTELY BUY AGAIN.

Use this for motovlogging. Very clear sound.

Mega Soundqualität!

Stessa qualità di un microfono che costa 10€

Super easy to install and the sound quality is better than the Rode i bought for almost double the price of the Purple Panda. Just get one and tell me I`m wrong! I'll be waiting!

I have purchased this with the suggestion of a youtuber. Great mic that sounds great going through my insta360. Had to lower the gain to -6 but it is perfect for hearing the motorcycle and voice. The only thing is the wiring is a bit long for mounting on helmet but I have that figured out with this mount lol. Highly recommended.
