Record audio for podcasts, stream audio online, or sound good over VoIP with the Samson Meteorite, a relatively compact and stylish USB microphone that plugs directly into your computer for use right out of the box. When combined with a separately available adapter, it can even work with iOS devices.


You'll find the mic delivers a solid audio quality while minimizing effects of the room, thanks to its cardioid polar pattern. The USB cable is integrated, so no need to purchase a separate one, which you might very well lose anyway. Its integrated magnetic cradle base, combined with the USB functionality, make the mic as portable as it is useful.

The 14mm capsule sounds good on vocals, whether podcasting, streaming, or communicating over VoIP

The mic uses a cardioid polar pattern to naturally mitigate room tone, giving you a clear and focused sound. Built-in 48 kHz / 16-bit conversion gives you broadcast-quality digital audio.

As the mic has an integrated USB cable, you don't have to worry about losing any extra USB cable. A magnetic, detachable base can serve as a tabletop mic stand.

The mic plugs directly into any computer with a USB input, no drivers required. It's compatible with most computer-based digital audio software as well as Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, voice recognition applications, and much more.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I assume this mic will work with a camera that has USB connection directly (GoPro or other) since the description says it doesn't need drivers? Can anyone confirm? Thank you.

A: I have not used the go mic with a camera before because I always used this mic for voiceovers on my laptop.

Q: 2. When i open AudioDesk 4, I got an error message : AudioDesk has encountered an error. Internal error an unknown driver was specified (MotuAudio System Mas MasDriverMgr.cpp, 98 [33:0]) How can I fix it?

Q: 4. hardware or software noice cancellation? Cheers

A: thank you for your question. this unit does have active hardware noise cancellation.

Q: 5. How wide is the clip to connect to a 10 year old Viewsonic 42" monitor top?

A: The clip is 30mm wide, the back portion of it (the first photo shows it used as the base of the mic) is 50mm deep, the two joints in that arm allows for putting the mic on something up to 65mm thick (if the back portion is held at ~90 degrees). Fully unfolded, the arm will accommodate anything up to 116mm thick (about 4 5/8"). Hope this helps.

[5 V] i first used this mic when my music director lent it to me to record a v/o that would be played back during a musical theater production over the p.a. system. very easy to use and excellent quality pickup for all ranges of human voice. tends to record a little hot, so i trim it down in the daw. no trim on the unit. i have bought other usb(with a higher price point with more bells and whistles) mics since purchasing this little guy, but he is still my favorite. no weird artifacting or needing to return to mfg. i have also used it to mic a guitar cab with great results after a little experimenting with the positioning. i have used other samson products in the past with a high rate of satisfaction. dont let their afordable prices fool you, i would call their products professional, not pro-sumer.

[Large Diaphragm] I am sooooo glad I made this purchase. I have fought with mics doing zoom calls. This works everytime!

[Cardioid] Purchased on sale for $40 and this performs great for gaming/chatting. Plug & play with no necessary tweaking outside of lowering gain in Discord or your respective app. Without a sale, its still competitive against the Yeti products just with less buttons.

Classy look and rigid feel because of the metal.



Yes it will pick up loud keyboard noise, desk banging - but that's a condenser. Keep it in front of your mouth with the keyboard behind it and it will serve you well. Might get an arm for it down the road if I go full cringe gamer setup.

[Cardioid] Okay, this is obviously not the voiceover mic of your dreams. Nor should it be...it's not intended for that purpose. It's a USB mic, and a reasonably priced one as well. And for what it is, it's fabulous. If you want something really fantastic, you need to get out of the USB game and go for the really expensive mics. But this, for what it is, is a reliable, good sounding tank of a mic. And bonus...it's cute looking. :) *side note: it sounds better if you put it on a boom arm with a shock mount. Not NECESSARY, but it improves the quality of the sound quite a bit.

[5 V] I use this mic for speech recognition. It works great right out of the box with no set required on Windows 10. Included with my purchase was a rebate for free headphones. The headphones arrive within 10 days and are super comfortable.

[Cardioid] The mic itself is amazing, I already knew that. I'm using it for streaming and my voice quality went from okay to amazing. Though, I'm more amazed by the shipping time. I got the mic in 9 days and I ordered it from Turkey! It came from USA to Turkey to my hands in 9 days! So, than you Samson and thank you BH for amazing service.

[Cardioid] Sound quality and performance of the Samson Meteor Mic USB Studio Condenser Microphone are amazing; it has made my home remote recordings of my radio show sound as if I was broadcasting live in the radio station's studio! Listeners of my show were amazed by how professional my show recordings sound. A purchase well-worth the modest cost for such a great-sounding mic!!

[Plug-In Power] This mic is slick and very easy to use. It provides the level of quality I need, and reduces post production audio work.

[Plug-In Power] I wanted to enable voice commands with Windows 10 on my PC. I needed a mic, but most that I found initially were intended for podcasters or recording live music into a PC or laptop. In other words, too large and expensive for my needs. Yet, I wanted a mic of good enough quality that Cortana would accurately hear voice commands - even at a little distance. The Meteorite Mic has worked great so far, and it has a really small footprint on my desk. I use it to launch programs, search my local PC or the web. I imagine I'll find more ways to benefit from voice input over time. The brief instructions that came with it were sufficient to enable the mic in the Windows 10 settings.
