Hey Harris, Any idea if the Goxlr is ever gonna get a number 2 or new variations? I haven’t been able to find a better competitor because the goxlr has everything I need especially for audio routing. Hoping we I’ll have two mic inputs one day…

Can we get a review with and without EQ and post processing on the mic compared to others in it's price range? I know you did a video similar to this already from cheap to highly expensive microphones, but this wasn't on the list and I want to hear the differences on this one specifically.

Dynamic microphones are for speaking applications. They are built to dampen surrounding noises and focus on the voice speaking directly into the mic. A condenser microphone is generally used in music production and can be used not only for crisp vocals but also for your instrument.

Oh man I’ve been super curious about this! Really interesting to see them go towards the XLR market.

I'll will be interested to see full independent reviews of this product. Seems like it has potential.

Good to see Logitech challenging Elgato's presence in the stream space with a cohesive package.

except with streamlabs, that trash needs to go away xD, but yes, their hardware is looking good

I gotta say I'm absolutely impressed by the sound of this mic. Usually when you showcase mics, I have a few tiny irks here and there, like a few rogue plosives or very lowkey breathing or just a certain edge of the sound I dislike. But this mic just sounds soooo smooth. As some people in the comments have also said, a sound comparison against the ShureSM7B and Blue yeti, maybe together with other recent mics, would be dope

Harris with another banger of a video! I have been following you for many years, I love the honesty and transparency. We have an ALL white PC setup, and asthetics are huge. This is amazing!!! I am wondering if there is an all white wind screen?

I love the aesthetics and features. Hard for me to give up on the software I have with the wave 3 since I don't have a premix or board for an interface. But this looks fantastic.

Thanks for all of your videos. I've been keeping myself updated thru them all. This mic & light might be my new go to. 😁

So, my mic thoughts. Mic looks cool. Cool innovations. The FIRST thing I noticed was the audio vs your other videos. I feel like the mic is brighter, with more sibilant sounds coming through. There seems to be a lack of mids in there. BUT, that could all just be expectations, so confirmation bias. I'd love to see a non-sponsored breakdown VS mics like the smb 7b and others. Just because of my engineer past, I nerd out on it. Keep rockin the good rock man!

Looks cool! Like the aesthetic of the mic. The light beams are pretty awesome too. Nice video as usual bro!

Another great video. Thank you 🍻 I’d like to see/hear how the noise cancellation works when you tap the arm and mic. With is being such a unique and significant technology it would be nice to see it put to the test.

Hey there. I really enjoy your videos and I am grateful for how informative they are! So, thanks! This new logitech mic looks and sounds great. The only thing I'm wondering about is a setting that allows a wider range of movement without loss of dynamics and volume. When you speak to the side a little bit it seems to lose volume and dynamics a bit.

I’d like to see the difference with a very thin light like this and a big softbox studio light that you normally use. Is there a quality difference?

Alright Harris we all know that now we need a SM7B vs the BLUE Dynamic Microphone

sm7b has more body and a fuller sound the blue sounds very shallow

Ok here i am debating over 2 mics to upgrade to and you drop this one me... wait to mess up my night haha. love it, sounds great looks great would love to see a comparison review vid. one thing i need to ask is what mic boom arm are you using. need to change mine up and cant decide

Pleasantly surprised. That noise canceling capsule is pretty cool. I like that it has some low end without sounding boomy. Pricier than the Se Dynacaster but you get different tricks with it.

Those look so slick! For a Minimalist set up for sure! Love how the mic sounds

mixed feelings about the sound. first thing i thought when hearing it was "this sounds very compressed". there is a certain sharpness and distortion(?) in the highs that i find a bit unpleasant. not sure, whether that comes from the mic or from something in the signal chain. to be fair though, just listened to it via smartphone, will watch this a second time via monitors.

nope, standing by my comment. there is definitely some distortion going on, especially with louder parts. nonetheless. the idea with of a "cold mic-signal" within the mic itself is genius and it would be very interesting to test this against the obvious mic that it is competing with. this feature might be the part which sells the mic, if it is any good.

I agree with your analysis

I think this is one of those microphones that helps those who already have the majority of their things as Logitech. I personally have a keyboard (soon to not be Logitech) and a mouse that’s Logitech. So to add a nice light and a dynamic microphone to compete with SM7B at just a touch under the price point with a not so aggressive design but more of a softer, clean, out of the way design is an interesting thought.

Such a good content as always! What mounting did you use to fix the light above the monitor?

I was literally 15 seconds away from pulling the trigger on an EV RE20 but I love the look, I love the sound and Iove the integrated mount. It's a strong buy. I've got a fethead so the integrated preamp is a bonus.

Perfect light for my needs. Thanks for the review!

Mic sounds great! Would love to see an option for a thicker foam windscreen like you can get for the SM7B to better reduce plosives.

I liked this mic. The design is excelent (already saw black version). I am getting into voiceover stuff and creation content and I like that this mic gives the podcast-like feeling but is not as boomy as the SM7B which make it versatile so I do not need to have 2 mics; one for streaming and one for voice overs. Also the integrated gain boost and that its dynamic make it better for a budget setup (dont need that much room treatment and stuff). I like it.

Looks super cool. Out of curiosity, which audio interface would you recommend? Would a Scarlet 2ui work sufficiently? TIA. Oh and the light is super dope!

Will be getting both! Also just a random question, I’m lookin at gettin a mixer and I’m stuck between the fifine audio mixer and the go xlr. Any recommendations?

That appears to be a great microphone. Very nice review (as always).... I am looking for equipment for my Broadcasting classroom. Students want to work with nice mics that JUST WORK.

Only @ 37dB of gain on my AT BP40 dynamic, so it seemed like both the look and the emphasis on the lack of need for anything like a cloudlifter or preamp was all aimed @ directly competing with the SM7B. The look of this is nice & after watching your video here, the details seem interesting. For someone like myself though, it's super cost prohibitive being that I've already dropped $300+ on a different mic that there's technically nothing wrong with. Wouldn't mind trying out other options, but.. just don't have the expendable cash to plop down $300+ on a 2nd mic when I only need 1.

It looks and sounds amazing! I’m looking to upgrade my mic setup, and I’m torn between this mic and the BEACN mic that you reviewed not too long ago. I know the BEACN is a usb mic, not sure is this one is worth the extra $70ish dollars for . Would love your Opinion Harris?!

This is a great looking microphone. Harris, have you tried using this with the Rodecaster pro 2? I know that if I were to use a gain booster like a Klark Teknik or a Cloud Lifter on the RCP2 it actually makes the sound worse, so I'm wondering if the Logi Clearamp would do the same.

What is you take compared to the Shure mics? Like the dual usb/xlr MV7? Or the Shure SMB7? I am debating on either of them upgrading from a Elgato: Wave 3

The light looks great! I’ve wanted a light like that one so I might need to pick it up. Also I love the way the mic looks, never seen one shaped like that before

So, when will the sm7b, m7, and podmic(or procaster) comparison video with the new Logitech Blue Sona standings be released?

Just got my GO XLR Mini on sale, and on the hunt for my first non-USB mic... I was thinking the Shure, but this does seem pretty excellent! I'll have to learn more before making a decision!

whats your option on the logi mic vs the shure sm7b the both look good and sound good in the vidoes i ve watched but was wondering whats your thoughts if you had to buy one for a stream and you didnt have either one at the time which would you most go for and why

Beautiful mic. Glad to see the aesthetics change. I will probably get one soon. Sounds great also.

That sounds PHENOMENAL. Thank you for the description on how it even works. Loved this video and now planning on considering this in my budgeting.

Excellent video! The SONA sounds so great

i like the design overall, i do think they could have made another design choice with the placement of the cord input. the finish is nice and clean. The audio quality is not the best i have heard in this price category, but its up there with the best, it was really good and premium feeling, no annoying metallic sound, but i did notice a tiny amound of muffling of your voice from it, compared to the way you usually sounds, but the audio was overall very clear and had a warm sound. and the square design makes it easy for youtubes to vinyl wrap the design with their own creative ideas, so the design is unique :D

This fascinates me. I have a Rode PodMic and when I upgraded my arm to an Elgato Slim Arm, there was so much desk noise for some reason I had to go back to my regular arm. Sounds like grabbing this mic might solve that and I can use the Elgato arm (plus my setup is white so it will look sharp)

I love this, but do I still want to pay so much verses something like the Rode Pod Mic and the Wave XLR? its nice and looks great by it is most definitely tailored to a specific group of people who will spend the money on a mic like this.

Wait six months and watch it on amazon. All logitech stuff gets heavily discounted at some point. I picked up a £200 keyboard for £100 a £120 mouse for £70.......

Very impressed Mic! :) Maybe this would be my next upgrade insted of the Shure Sm7b.

You normally mention if you put eq on the mic. Was this raw audio or did you add anything to it?

Very interested in making the move to xlr mic and especially this blue sona! Was watching your earlier videos and wondering if the goxlr mini would work with the blue sona? I think I read it's only +24v phantom power. It's Currently on sale at Amazon for $130, perfect price with the mic for me. What else would you recommend if the goxlr mini doesn't work?

Dunno why but I jst love these mic videos from you. Keep em coming!! : D

I think it sounds and look nice, but I don't have an XLR interface for my setup, so I will stick with my Wave 3 for now. but it would be tempting to get if I went the XLR route

It sounds nice and warm and I love the design. I try to keep my setup all black and white so this would look great. Question will be when the necessary comparison video comes out that lines this up with close competitors in both condenser and upper end USB mics.

This looks amazing. The only thing is how does it compare to the Shure SM7b? I mean it definitely looks a lot nicer in my opinion but what's the sound quality like between them...?

What XLR cable do you use???? I need a new one and love the one you are using in this vid

That camera preview on the light software is actually extremely useful

Really solid shake on what feels like a great microphone! Compared to the Shure SM7B and the EV RE-20, I take it?

Big fan of the light, i've got two flood light stands right now, and in a room that's already cramped, this would help with the keylighting, and maybe i'll be able to clean it up a bit. kudos logitech

With the light that you showed off can you use it on the stream deck? You didn’t really say anything about that one so I’m trying to figure out what would it fit in my set up.

Awesome looking microphone! I wish they designed the XLR port a little bit different. It’s a hanging style microphone but the wire just comes straight out the back. I don’t want to mention it but the way the sm7b has the little wire to the microphone is just such a cleaner look and keeping the XLR cable up on the mic arm.

Interesting. That thin wire O. SM7B bugs me. The XLR port to wire to capsule just plain looks clunky to me. IMHO the Logi is far cleaner

LOVE the look, really want this mic, will start to set aside money to buy it after the new year!

Harris, you make any microphone sound good! But I love everything I seen so far and I'm interested on picking up this new mic and light!

Is there anywhere where i can ask question about stuff? I have an akg d5 mic (xlr) with a cheap mix amp. Is it worth getting a better usb mic like hyperx or keep mine?

I'm shook, I'm in love with it and will soon upgrade from my Blue Spark SL

I have been using an LED, clip on, bar light (like $10 from amazon) for the last two years (non-streamer) just to up the brightness of the workspace and balance the light level at my keyboard. Having watched plenty of Harris videos ;), I knew it would also help light my face for those dreaded on-camera work calls. But I never considered using two of them, vertically... hmmm

Thank you for this video, Harris. Been on the market for a new dynamic XLR microphone and this seems to be exactly what I've been looking for. I'm having a hard time figuring out audio interfaces, what would you say would be a good choice to go with the Blue Sona?

Mic sounds nice, wish I could afford it right now, I've been using an ATR2100 (not X) for 6 or 7 years now. It serves me well, but picks up lil desk bumps and stuff even with an Elgato Wave Arm LP and shock mount. Not loud, but just a tad there.

Might have to get these two items looks very clean

🙌🏼🙌🏼two great products! Nice review 😊

i think i have found the perfect replacement for my Roode NT1-A I just hope i can add compression and so forth on top of it. that'd be amazing

The light bar is super cool. If they did an RGB variant so you could get some cool effects that you could hit through a stream deck that would amazing. The microphone looks really interesting. I’d buy one if it wasn’t a minimal upgrade over my current mic. That’s the thing with audio quality it needs to be good, anything beyond that is diminishing returns.

On the one hand, a light that skinny can't really make a nice, soft light source. On the other hand, it's nice seeing a long beam like that. I used to use a desk light of a similar shape and liked that the length meant it could light both sides of my face. Put it off the one side just a bit and you get a pretty decent single-light setup. That light was substantially cheaper than this, but on sale, this could be a neat buy.

Thanks bro that was really helpful

the shape is very synonomys with what we use in film. very cool that its moving into the streaming space

I need to know where to get good mic desk stands. the one in the video is fire cause it matches the shape of the microphone itself lmk pls

If this mic is good for vocals as well I WILL PICK IT UP 100%. Currently using a shure MV7, like literally 2 days after the warranty was over I started having this problem. Suddenly at random moments the mic gets like BASS BOOSTED and all the output sounds start peaking and blasting my ears. I was told I would have to pay for it to get fixed. So likely I will just get another mic

The mic is super clean, really like the look. But I have to say I noticed Reverie playing in the background, love that beat. But tik tok kept flagging the video, so hopefully one day I can use stream beats on my clips. Thank you for stream beats and all you do.

love the reviews

About the The Blue Sona, at US $349.99 there are a lot of COMBINATIONS of digital interfaces and microphones I could pick from. I could get a Rode NT1-A mic + Elgato Wave XLR for almost the same amount. Or something like the LEWITT LCT 240 PRO + MOTU M2 2x2 USB-C for $10 more and that is a microphone plus an interface. If we are talking just microphones, $350 means you have to win over mics like the LEWITT LCT 440 PURE, Audio-Technica AT4040 or the sE Electronics - 2200. I know Logitech has some "interesting" features and it looks nice but at $350 I got a a lot to choose from. I was really interested until I saw the price, at $250 it would get my attention.

Hey! there. I think it sounds good and looks even better, and that sound cancelation with double modules. I might give this one a try.

That mic sounds super clean. I like it and think it's going on my Santa list this year.

All sounds very very neat... But only want tiny and portable now. 💝love your Pop keys though Logi! 👌will be buying more of those till someone does something smarter/more fun.

I picked mine up used for 200 from guitar center should be arriving tomorrow I'm excited can't wait to try it out

I know this was 11 months ago but I bought GOXLR when you had made your videos on it, then when I saw this video, I decided to upgrade my mic from my MXL BCD-1 to a Blue Sona. Do you have any tutorials on how to make the mic work with the GOXLR? I realized that the Sona was a dynamic mic but I can only use the mic in condenser mode and actually be heard, when I set it to Dynamic, the mic is super low and I have to get my mouth right on top of it, I tried googling tutorials or something, maybe a fix, but I can't find anything on it. Looks like I'm the only one using a Sona with a GOXLR lol, but it works fine on condenser but doesn't work properly on Dynamic. If anyone knows how to help, pleeeaaasssee comment. I don't want to have to end up just moving to an SM7B already...

As an audio engineer and streamer, I am VERY impressed at this microphone and how they used the inverting cancellation to their advantage. Amazing! I might get it now.

I need a better light for my setup so I’m definitely getting the litra beam, but I don’t know if my webcam can like go over it or under it I’m still working on that

Great looking microphone, sounds great too

Not sure if it's just the pitch of your voice but seems very clean in the mid-tones. Would have enjoyed seeing example of bass cut-off on ... and then off just for comparison. The look is clean and I like the design cues, I think it would compete much better at a USD $299.00 price point. Over 300 I see people going to a Rode, Shure, or other premium brands used by other creators.

Now we wait for the Podcastage review, because we need those side by side comparisons with the SM7B

Hmm for the mic, I’m unclear if I should enable phantom power or not. A motus m2 with phantom power enabled and high gain, apparently would have slight hummm to it. Is it necessary to enable phantom power to a dynamic mic at all?

Does this already come with the attachments to connect it to your pc or do you have to buy that? Not familiar with these types of non-usb mics so any info or videos would help guys! Gonna purchase this bad boy, it looks and sounds amazing!!!

Mic looks sick. Wonder how it compares to the SM7Bs audio

The mic looks good, but for the price I expected a little more careful plosive rejection, as well as a fuller, richer sound. It has low tones, but something about it has a thinner, leaner sound to me, combined with a slightly distorted sound, which became even more obvious when getting closer with the proximity effect. I think it's good, but might like a little more cleanup with effects. The appearance definitely looks great though!

i wish there was a way to get the tech from the logitech mic in to the Shure MV7, since i much prefer the sound of that

The biggest challenge I have in my work space is reducing my home floor noise for professional VO. With all the advanced tech, how does this mic fare with idle floor noise? I know the environment may vary.

For the tech the microphone is really awesome but I think it sounds compressed as it doesn't really get much your highs though it doesn't amplify your lows. All of this can be fixed through an EQ so the mic is pretty good.

I have a question…How well would this mic work with the Rodecaster Pro 2?

The mic has not been tuned yet, sounds a touch tinny but it may also be the noise cancellation cause you sound a bit high pitched.

The light does look super clean right there above the monitor.

I would interested to see how well 2 of the Litra bars worked as Key light and second when put on the sides of a monitor.
