ZealSound USB Microphone Review & Sound Test (Model: K66) 

Ive had this microphone for about 3 months now and have been trying everything to reduce the noise. Today i found out if you hold the mute button it activates the noise canceling. Much better

I just bought that mic and was wondering about the extra noise, this is exactly the video I needed. Thank you!

This man definitely knows how to sell a product 💯

Great video. Very educational. I just bought the microphone on Amazon. It should arrive tomorrow. I'm 62 (an old fart). I played guitar and was the lead singer for a top 40 cover band (bars and events). I used a Schure microphone. We are talking 1979 to 1988 before I hung it up. One thing I can tell you about microphones - no matter what year they were made..... 1) the size of the room matters. 2) Ever notice all the sound shielding in studios? You know... the sound absorbing squares all over the walls.... they help. I noticed you were in a room with hard walls and I'm sure you were getting some sound reflection off the walls. I love the tests you did showing the different gain settings. That's a great start. Distance from the microphone too... great information. Ever notice how a singer will back off a microphone when he/she belts out the height of the song (loudest part).... often sung louder so they can hit the note...... well that matters to eliminate distortion if you are too loud - too close to the microphone. Try holding the microphone at different angles to your lips too. Head on vs. speaking into the side of the microphone screen can really make a huge difference depending on the microphone specs. MIke - you speak very clearly. I think if you spoke a little bit softer you could fully use the gain and echo features to their full potential with this low priced microphone. From what you showed me and what I heard during your test.... wow.... great microphone for the money. I too have the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 and I find when recording the outgoing message for my voice mail set up.... it's hard to get a good recording. I can't wait to get mine and play with the recording quality.

Love how you explain things. Interesting watching this. Very helpful review!!

I just got mine at the beginning of the mouth…one thing I’ve noticed in this recording as well is you can’t be more than 10 inches away from the mic. I usually get about 6 inches away and I speak over the mic with it placed below me. That’ll also help with the “B” “P” & “T” sounds. Like you said for the price you really can’t beat it and it’s great if you’re on a budget or just getting started. I hear that dynamic mics are the best especially if you’re doing a podcast. Great video you got my like a my sub

bro i needed this even though it came out a year ago its great quality subbed and liked!!!!!

the "foam windscreen" is a pop filter, it basically removes any popping sounds that you would make when speaking, thought you should know

The thing I noticed about the 1st and 3rd knobs is that they only really seem to work at their min and max values. You don't really see any changes in the intermediate levels on either of the knobs.

i just ordered this microphone, thank you, this review gives me high hopes and lets me know what to expect man!! 🖤

Love it! Not professional but great for beginners. Getting it now.

Sounds so much more realistic comparing to your galaxy phone!! and when its close to you, its almost perfect!! im not an expert or anything but it seems amazing for the price

great review! thanks for this!

This helped me so much thank you, sit

Great idea

Woa... Are those the Bose QC2? I'm still rocking a pair of those in 2024, but not as good shape. Still sound great. Not a bad mic, for a USB mic.

When checking the noise pickup, just keep the room silence and record without even talking anything...( That way youw ill know mic is pickuping unnecessary room noise or it is just the self noise, because of bad build quality)

Bought it a week ago and your video helped me make a choice. Don't make the same mistake, use it with the buttons upwards or you will struggle :p

Very helpfull. Thanks.

I have the C Cosycost version of this microphone. It’s very good

Thanks for this... It doesn't sound great to me, but for the price, it's what I expected, will look at spending a bit more...

Wonderful explanation, my friend!

How do you remove background noise? If you don't mind me asking like what program or app you use. Ps. I bought this in Germany for a bit more money around 37 Euros. That's still okay for me.

Any idea why mine does not power light up with my S21 Ultra. Everything is connected properly, but I cannot get the power light to come on.

The sound from the mike at medium and fairly close to you gave great sound. Nice video

Anyone ever get thebheadset volume control to work. Mine just does nothing and have to manually alter the volume through every program im using. Annoying to say the least

Great presentation

I have the microphone plugged into my MacBook pro, works as expected. The only hiccup is that when I plug my headphones into the microphone, I can only hear audio in my right ear. Has anyone else experienced this and know how to hear from both ears?

That’s so neat

Just brought it because of you arriving its at the 18th🔥🔥🔥 best reviewer fr

I’m having trouble hearing what I sound like on video camera with my microphone plugged into my iPhone and when I moved the microphone away from me in the video I still sound the same no difference but I hear myself better with headphones but not when I’m recording on camera on my phone why? It used to work now it doesn’t

I can’t figure out how to get it to work once I plug it to my iPhone. I don’t hear anything.

So i have this mic everything works great i have it connected to my phone but after i record a video i Cant hear it. I have the adapter splitter and everything do you know what i am doing wrong? Please help thanks I appreciate it

It raised the vocals. Your mic is cool but this mic for $40 bucks did a better job when brought closer…

i try connecting my headphone on my microphone, but i wanna hear it in my headphone not outside of my headphones im having this problem w this mic.

I’ve plugged it into my phone and the light comes on but my audio sounds the same, when I rub the mic I can tell that it’s not picking up any sound. Any reason why that could be?

How can you connect ZealSound to phone (Sam Sung or Iphone)?

I connected the microphone with the usb cable in my laptop and it remains silent, even if I take it to max volume. Am I missing something?

hey i want to stream on tiktok with this microphone. i would connect the microphone to my iphone and let my laptop play karaoke in the background. would you hear the karaoke through the microphone?

Nice video!

do you need headphones to hear yourself back because I can't hear anything when I plug it into my phone?

I have a question. Can you hear yourself with the headphone output without any delay?

can this be used on a windows computer my guy??❤

Do I need a lighting cable to plug in my phone

im praying your still replying to comments, how come when i plug this in my phone(I know its the mic input) it sounds amazing, then i plug into my laptop and it sounds worse

S22 actually not bad for a phone mic?!

Is it good for your phone ?

who was wearing the spacesuit?

I.was wandering if this works. On ps4

I'm not sure if I buy the mic or the galaxy LOL

Why add an echo gimmick?

there's no light on my mic when i plug it to my samsung s20+ , is there a phone setting for it? thanks

Will it connect with my ps5?

Why when I connect it with the USB to the PC tower, does the sound from the speakers stop? Can anyone help me?@MikeTrachtenberg Thank you very much

Good microhone!

Can I get it on amazon?

your phone sounds quality than the zealsound but the zealsound is more louder than the phone

You do realize you’re supposed to face the top of the microphone towards you, right? You weren’t even getting the best quality… 😂

Not the best room to test in, you need some dampening on the walls

How can I stop the noises ??

Bros more AI than mark zuckerburgh

Please wear an undershirt

Helpful but i'm not convinced. :)

Was the space suit worn by the astronaut. Ha ha.

Is this adaptable for iPhone 15?
