This USB condenser microphone can even be used as a permanent part of your computer setup, as it does not block any additional USB ports, thanks to its compact size. The Go Mic Direct is compatible with iPads and iPhones (4S and later models). You will need an Apple Lightning USB Camera Adapter or Camera Connection Kit (30 pins), however, as it is not a standard feature. This microphone has a frequency response of 20 Hz to 18 kHz. The sample rate equals 44.1 KHz and the bit rate 16 bits. A microphone with such capacities usually travels in a case, but the Samson Go Mic Direct can easily fit in your pocket.
