    • Recording quality and ease of use
Style: Hype Mic
Although it is on the pricey side this mic has beautiful sound quality. Very easy to use. I use it for recording my podcasts. I connected it to my I-phone and sound quality was perfect. However, when connected to my desktop (which is a ten years old Toshiba) for an online interview, I wasn’t as satisfied with the sound quality. Was it the old computer or the mic I do not know. I am not a techie. All I know, it is a high quality mic recommended to me by a friend who is a dubbing artist. Those of you on a tighter budget could look for other mics recommended by podcasters. Had I known good quality, below 100$ mics were available, I might have considered different options. All said and done, I am happy with my purchase. It is quite a small size, very portable, easy to mount and start. Comes handy with a nice hard top bag. Hope this helps. ... show more

    • the Apogee Hype Mic is solid, well-built, compact, well-accessorized, & matches the hype
Style: Hype Mic
Apogee is known for making solid products. This latest mic is beautifully made and they provide it with a great little case, with almost everything you'll need to make great recordings. I use it for voice-over, especially when I need portability. It is one of the few quality condenser mics that can plug directly into the iPad and work without external power. I tried a larger Marshall USB mic and it required a powered camera adapter -- that can be a pain, if you're trying to record where an outlet is not easily available. The mic itself has some nifty features, like the (almost) zero-latency headphone jack with adjustable mix b/w headphones and playback, a fairly easy-to-use gain setting dial, and it's much-bragged-about built-in compression. That feature is much more important for broadcast/podcast use. For voice-over, many clients want to be able to go back to raw signal and hardware compression means the "original" signal has been messed with on input. But, for a recent promo-style VO, the lowest compression setting worked well for me, and it's easy enough to turn off. The mic quality itself is really pretty darned good. It's good enough for professional work. I haven't compared it to my highest-end mics, but it did the job. One thing it's missing -- that Apogee doesn't provide with any of its mics -- is a shock mount. They provide a tripod with a ball mount (very adjustable and solid), but you can easily get low-end rumble transmitted from mic handling or vibration of a table or floor. I did experiment, and the Rycote InVision USM-L (or USM) can be used, so there is a viable option. But that's another ~$70. Overall (and because I already have the Rycote), I've found it to be a valuable mic to have and I'm glad I bought it. It's not cheap, but it's high-quality & sometimes you get what you pay for. ... show more

    • Apogee Hype Mic
Style: Hype Mic
First of all, I would like to say that it matches my MacBook I have :) I haven't used my new mic as of today; however, I had an old version of this mic and I know the quality of it. I am really excited to get started on vocals using this mic. I really like the fact that it is small and compact but delivers a great huge sound for what I need. I know I made the right choice in purchasing this mic for my specific needs. Excited!!!!! ————————— Updated review: I have used it in Logic Pro X to record by vocals!!! Yess!!!! I love it.. it has Vo press ion built in so using an interface is really not necessary. Excellent quality mic for singers/ vocals… home studio … you will definitely be impressed!!!! ... show more

    • This mic will capture the richness in your voice!
Style: Hype Mic
Review Image by Paula Schorp Paula Schorp
I am a vocalist performing with my band. When the quarantine was put in place and everything was shut down I needed an outlet for my music. After doing some research I decided to buy the Apogee Hype Mic in hopes of better quality vocals than what my iPhone could deliver. I was not disappointed. This mic captures vocals beautifully with the built-in compression. No outside noise due to the condenser and it is so easy to use. ... show more

    • Great little microphone
Style: Hype Mic
This is a great little microphone!! I use it in my mobile studio for voice-overs. Small, compact, portable and easy to set up and break down. And the sound quality is fantastic!! I love the headphone jack in the mic body so I don't have to plug into my computer.

I could not get this mic to work correctly for me. When I tried to use it I got this pop swoosh sound at the beginning of my recordings. When I tried to contact the company, they were not any help. I also had bad latency problems with this mic. I sent it back to Amazon because I thought it was defective, and ordered a second one thinking this would solve the problem. It did not. ... show more

    • Sent me one with scratches,a broken box thats falling apart and no manual on how to operate it
Style: Hype Mic
I like the product but I don't like the fact that I'm going to order this now for a third time bc the first time it had a broken piece so I sent it back hoping to get a new one to replace my original order, only this time they sent me a used one with a broken scratched up box, a scratched up mic and NO user manual. I find it very unfortunate bc $350 plus 20dollars shipping is alot of money for a blue collar fella like myself that is.struggling as is to get by. All I want is a brand new, unused HYPEMIC with all pieces in tact, unused with a user's manual. Its not alot to ask for. So I hope this time I get the right product bc it is a great piece of equipment and I recommend it to everybody. ... show more

    • Overall pleased but RODE Mic seems better
Style: Hype Mic
Fully disclosure. I first purchased the Rode NT-USB condenser Mic and was extremely impressed with the sound quality. However, I had to return it because it had no manual audio gain gauge on it and I discovered that the audio gain would change automatically when recording on Windows 10 and google chrome. So sadly I returned this mic due to that issue and I went with this microphone after reading the reviews. This mic solves the problem of no automatic audio gain as it has a manual knob to control the input sound level. So it solved that problem. Overall, the sound quality is top-notch EXCEPT I have to say I find the dynamic range of the RODE a bit better if I still was able to use it. I'm satisfied with this purchase, but I would invest in a RODE mic if the company would release a USB version with an audio gain control knob that I could control. ... show more
