Giant Squid Omni-Directional Lavalier Mic Test

Okay. I'm back with another tech review / test for you guys and gals. This time it's something that will boost your video's quality so much that I can't even explain it. I'm talking about an easy fix. The Giant Squid Omni-Directional Lav Mic.

This thing has a huge frequency response from 20-20,000 Hz, so it doesn't sound tinny, or cheap. It is also an 1/8" or 3.5mm plug, so you can plug this guy directly into your computers mic input without needing an audio interface! I should note that it does require a minimal amount of power to function. Your computer input does offer this, but if you're using an interface or portable recorder, make sure it can support this. I used my Zoom h2n and was getting no audio and then turned on the line power and it worked like a charm.

It is also a 5 foot cable, so keep that in mind when you buy it. Know what you're going to use it for. I guess that's all I can say about it, other than the fact that it's only $50, and that's not a whole lot of cash to make your youtube videos reviewing Keeping with the Kardashians seem professional. Just watch the video and hear for your self.
