Product Description
Able to mount directly to your headphones, the Antlion ModMic 5 is designed to optimize recorded audio by isolating sound and minimizing distortions from the surrounding environment. A single switch on the side lets you choose between the noise-canceling unidirectional mic capsule or the omnidirectional mic capsule Read More
The drop description says this comes with the usb adapter for mac and y-adapter for consoles but it's not listed in the what's included list and not normally part of the modmic 5 bundle, can someone from massdrop confirm what's actually included?
Modmic's are great but if I were spending the money on a new mic I'd just save myself the hassle and get the modmic wireless. I have a modmic 4 and while it's great the cable drives me insane
HumanBeingThe bright side of the 5 is you can use a shorter cable, but a cable is still a cable :). Our job is to give you the options, you can all pick your favorite flavor of ModMic.
PS: DO NOT EAT THE MODMIC. It has no nutritional value.
HumanBeingAfter 1+ year of using the ModMic 4, the cable is driving me crazy. The wireless is such a great idea, but the price is too steep for me atm. It's also in the same price range as the Yeti, so I have to think about that as well. I hate 1st world problems.
I have a question for anyone who owns this already. I have one I purchased from Amazon before this drop happened and the pics in here seem to show that the arm holding the mic is flexible enough to be bent towards the mouth. My modmic arm feels like a hard plastic not meant to bend. Am I wrong and should I try bending it because as it is right now, the mic doesn't get close enough to my mouth for people to hear me clearly.
it say We expect your order to ship by Mon Jun 03 2019, does this mean that the mic will be in my home (FRANCE) around the 03rd of June or does this mean that the mic will ship from Drop.com by the 3rd of June ? ideally if the shippement to my home doesn't go past the 12 of June it would be fantastic
This has the best mic quality of all ModMics (I own the 4 with mute and the Wireless). If you can get along with the additional cable next to your headset cable, its perfect. Be aware that you should get a cheap usb soundcard just for better mic quality (or a mixer). Almost all onboard, internal and also external soundcards have problems with noisy/crackling mic output. On youtube/reddit you find a lot content about that.
I use one of these and I recommend it to everyone I can. The quality of the mic is really amazing, even if you already have a "gaming" headset you like buy this and stick it on just for the vastly superior voice quality. Being able to use it with nice headphones is a huge bonus, leave behind the world of bad voice quality and mediocre-at-best sound in overpriced "RGB" headsets.
I have one of these, and I absolutely endorse them. This is by far the best microphone for my style of streaming (I paint miniatures), as there's no strange direction I have to twist to talk at. Clear as a bell, flexible, and attaches to literally any headset. I would use this with a cheap set of cans before using a headset with built-in cheap microphone.
I also use it with the Antlion ModMic XLR adapter in a Behringer Xenyx 302 USB mixing station.
DesastorI had someone test this but the honest results were nothing spectacular. A test sample size of one, and not a very technical person (the bartender at my local watering hole actually). Still, that's all the data I have. If you try it, please let me know how it goes!
AntlionJoeThanks for the info. I have a first class Mic that I had used and had found too much interference due to environmental noises. Sounds like this one does the same. I think what is needed is something that is noise canceling, which for a Mic would require additional electronics, I think. Thanks for the info!!
