How can I do when the microphone cannot be used? Few ways for troubleshooting:

  • A.You need to disable the computer's onboard mic by accessing your sound devices in the hardware section of the control panel. And choose the mic (JV601)
  • B.Check whether the "mic mute" of the online control is open or not. When the "mic mute" is open, the light will turn to red.
  • C.Please don't connect the microphone to an extension adapter(includes USB hub), or it will weaken the signal sent from devices. The cable length of the headset is 59in (5ft), long enough for daily use.

User questions & answers

Question: Does this work with ps4 & xbox one
Answer: would not work for ps4 slim, not recognized. Until I rebooted the ps4 with the mic plugged in. evidently some kind of driver or config is adjusted, as it is now recognized and works.
Question: I hope this does not sound like a stupid question but am i suppose to hear my voice like a normal mic or not
Answer: go to your sound settings, then recording devices and on your snowball mic right click and go to properties. you want to find the settings where it says "hear this mic"
Question: USB real estate is at a premium on my PC. Is there one of these that DON'T plug into USB? That is, it plugs into the regular mic port
Answer: It's a USB Only microphone. If USB real estate is at a premium on your PC, buy an External USB Port Hub. I bought one, takes one of the 3 USBs my laptop has, gives me 8 additional.
Question: For singing videos, is it better to have the iCE or the regular Snowball
Answer: From what I've heard, the snowball does actually sound quite reasonably better. I suppose it'll have to be because of a number of reasons, 1 being that there's a $10-20 diffrence, and that this is marketed as a "Skype mic." I also believe that the blue snowball has wider diversity in colour. The blue snowball also features 3 different "modes" or polar patterns.First being a cardiod setting, a standard pickup pattern in most condenser mics, very handy. Mainly picks out sound in a heart shaped radius in front of the mic. Second setting is a cardiod, 10db pad. Good for loud sources, getting up close to the talent. The third and final setting is the omnidirectional setting. "Omni" meaning more than one, in this instance more than one direction. In this setting, the mic will pic up sound from all directions.doing so will loose some sound quality but maybe useful for recording a board meeting. Overall the blue snowball iCE is a great, compact usb microphone, for the tight budget market, or in other words a blue snowball, minus a few features and cheaper sound quality.

User questions & answers

Question: Can I connect it to my iphone
Answer: Depends on your WiFi. The biggest impact will probably be in the latency between your console and the server, so you might notice a difference in multiplayer games. Second biggest impact would be if there's interference in your WiFi.
Question: Is the microphone compatible with PS
Answer: It's good for an indoor office. It is pretty thick and durable.
Question: How to install this microphone
Answer: Yes , it is standard of RJ45 INTERFACE .
Question: Does the microphone have mute function
Answer: Seemingly no. The manufacturer/seller doesn't seem to even understand that there's a difference between a "basic UL listing" and in-wall ratings, which strongly suggests these cables are not in fact specifically rated for in-wall use. (And so of course would not comply with electrical codes in many/most jurisdictions).
