t.bone SC 450 USB - Good Sound but Average Quality

Antique Guitars 30.01.2014

I have been using this microphone for about 6 years for various amateur recording tasks and also for some of my University modules.

This microphone offers great sound recording quality for relatively little money, it has all the features I need for my various recording tasks. The USB connector makes it a flexible tool for home recording and recording on the move. I even used this microphone for Sound Decay and Reverberation tests for the Acoustics module of my Musical Instruments Degree without issue.

The only real problem I have found with this microphone is the quality of the USB connector in the microphone itself. I had to have it sent away twice for repair to fix problems with the USB connector.

Overall this is a good microphone which records good quality sound and is good value for money. It does however need some re-designing in regards to the USB connection.

Great Microphone for Discord

Hootsman 26.03.2019

Bought this microphone to use when playing video games and chatting with friends on discord. I use a mechanical keyboard and by tweaking some of the settings I'm able to easily remove the audible clicky background sound from the keys for the most part. Quality is excellent but there's no additional software that comes with this mic so the main control you'll have over this is via the sensitivity wheel on the mic itself and whatever features your OS provides.
Pros:
Excellent sound
Excellent case for portability
Is good at ignoring most background sound that other mics I've had

Cons:
Lack of additional software.

For rough recording easy through GarageBand.

MsG 01.06.2020

I bought this mic for work just to record handy pieces for my clients. It is not close to studio quality but does exactly what it says on the tin. It is easy to use, and also easy to transport when working. Very uncomplicated piece of kit, happy that I purchased it, great addition to my kit, and can record pretty decent quality audio. I have also used this to record interviews for study purposes. Garageband and a MacBook suits me down to the ground for what I am doing.

Very simple, basic, reliable piece of kit that has served me well, and still continues to do so.
