NT-USB Mini : Plug & play improvement
Microphone works as a USB sound device. Really as simple as plugging it in, waiting a few second and you're good to go. Normal minijack headphones plug in to the back and there's a potentiometer on the front to control their volume. Very simple, no need to read the manual.
The improvement over the standard computer microphone and a generic USB headset is remarkable. Sound quality significantly improved for interviews and conversations, with much more clarity and detail in the recording. No issues with wind or background noise.
The microphone is much more compact than you would expect from the pictures, it really is a small device which easily fits on your desk with its small footprint. It is quite heavy for it's size, and the stand looks a bit flimsy at first, with it's magnetic connection to the mic, however this is absolutely not an issue and holds the device very well.
It does what it's made for very well, but might run in to challenges when upgrading. It doesn't seem to be compatible with a dedicated mic stand, it only has a minijack connector which is on the back (not the handiest place). But highly recommended for a straigtforward improvement over standard computer sound!
