There’s no assembly or additional driver required. Simply attach the pop filter to the tripod and you’re good to go.

I would say that yes, the Go Mic does sound ever so slightly cleaner and more articulate than the Tonor, but you’ll notice some ambient noise present in the Go Mic recording.In case you're on the lookout to gain better audio quality, USB microphones fit the deal. It takes no time to set up, and once up and running, you can use it whenever and however you want to. But to produce crisp audio records, TONOR's best USB microphone TC30 comes into play with its noise reduction technology and other key features. What Does a USB Microphone Do? Between the lines: TONOR TC30 is made for gamers, students, teachers and work-from-home professionals.

With a USB 2.0 data port, no additional driver software or external devices is required. TC30 usb mic is compatible with Windows, macOS and Linux. Ideal for gaming, podcasting, zoom meeting, streaming, Skype chatting, Voice Over, etc. What’s cool about the Tonor is that it does a pretty excellent job at filtering out the noise, unlike a Samson Meteorite, which I also owned at one point. In the wake of the pandemic, media consumption has increased exponentially. Other people used this advantage to tap into the media content market by podcasting, creating videos, or streaming games. While providing a stand is convenient, it’s not ideal as far as sound quality goes because of the fact that you’re sort of speaking down into it, rather than level with it.Note: It is compatible with Macs, PCs, PS4 and iPad (an adapter is required), not compatible with Phones and Xbox. Let’s take a listen: Samson Meteorite https://homestudiobasics.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Meteorite_filter.mp3 Tonor TC-777 https://homestudiobasics.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Tonor_Pop_Filter_2_8dB_boost.wav I also think the sound quality of the Tonor is light years better than a Snowball, but I’ll let you be the judge: Blue Snowball https://homestudiobasics.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Snowball_Test.wav Tonor TC-777 https://homestudiobasics.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Tonor_Pop_Filter_2_8dB_boost.wav

Still, the Tonor really holds its own and doesn’t get embarrassed here. It’s a great mic.

I have used one for over 3 years and don’t plan on getting rid of it. One issue I have with the Tonor is volume. It sounds pretty quiet in comparison to the other demos I did.I’m noticing that both the Go Mic and Meteor sound articulate but at the expense of a bit too much brightness in the treble. I tested the mic with a few different placements and found that actually holding it level with my mouth yielded the best result. Between Zoom calls and Discord chats, my Tonor TC30 is constantly receiving love. As my daily driver, this microphone is what I use to chat during work, gaming sessions and group calls. Outside of communication and content creation, the microphone encouraged me to try new features like Windows dictation in addition to the Alexa app for PC. While the TC30 plays nice with both Mac and PC, it truly shines on a Windows machine. The Meteorite is a bit bright and essy in the high registers, and like the Snowball, sounds kind of tinny and metallic to my ear. The quality difference to me was night and day, with placement being of the utmost importance here. Blue Snowball vs. Tonor TC-777

Considering its price, performance, and accessories, it really dumps on the Snowball and then some. I was pretty disappointed in the Snowball, and would recommend the Tonor over it every day and twice on Sunday, homie! Greetings comrade and Welcome aboard.
