The Tonor Q9 is one of the cheapest (£60) plug and play USB microphones available on the market. This is a short tutorial on how to use the Tonor Q9 with Audacity. Includes a comparison with the Sennheiser MKH-416. You can send the Tonor Q9 to your remote podcast guest in case they do not have any sound recording equipment. It will certainly sound better than the audio recorded from a Zoom call using a laptop microphone.
This is a USB microphone that records 16-bit, 48kHz, lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack, has a high noise floor, and picks up a lot of background noise. The package includes a condenser microphone, metal shock mount, adjustable suspension scissor arm stand, desk mount clamp, pop filter, foam mic cover, 1.8M USB A to B cable and manual.
