Podcast Equipment Bundle, Donner Multifunction Podcast Starter Kit with Condenser Microphone for Live Streaming, Music Recording, Fits most PC, Smartphones, Tablets, Black

Works perfectly for what I want it for. I tried a couple of these type of things but this is by far the best fit money

This has helped my music production so much. Top top product!!! 💯🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Everything is fine except the Bluetooth, contacted the seller and got one replacement. The sound quality is not the best, but good enough for podcasts, you get what you paid for. The after sale service is good.

The media could not be loaded.  When you first open the box it looks smaller than the pictures but it's powerful. Really simple to use, plug and play and the best future on it is that it's battery powered so you can have it always with you. Comes with a USB to type-c adaptor which is really cool and you will need it if you've got a MacBook or newer laptops that have only USB-c ports.The product itself looks great and the microphone is good quality. Has autotune settings and lots of sound effects. Good and easy-to-read instructions are provided and connecting it with your phone using bluetooth is really easy. The sound quality is good and I would recommend it for YouTubers, steamers, and podcasters.

The soundcard works reasonably well and would make this a good buy at the price were it not for the faulty headphone socket. I can live with sound in one ear. But it'll annoy me every time I use the thing.PS - Following my earlier comment I was contacted by the supplier's Customer Service Team who quickly resolved the issue to my total satisfaction. I have only very rarely experienced customer care that was so courteous, solicitous, comprehensive and efficient.The device now being fully functional and free of annoyances, I can acknowledge that it is rather better than I had originally supposed. Using the soundcard with a fairly lo-spec mini computer and Audacity, I made some test recordings which I compared with recordings made using the computer's built-in soundcard and a mid-range USB microphone. There is no doubt whatever that the Donner equipment produced discernibly superior results.Set-up is straightforward and operation of the device quite intuitive. The microphone is responsive and more than adequate for voice recordings. I very rapidly grew comfortable with it and confident about speaking in a normal voice.The supplied desktop tripod is basic but functional. It is not heavy and stable enough for the purposes of broadcasting or serious recording. But it would serve for casual use. All cables and connections are supplied and totally fit for purpose.Most impressive of all, however, is the after-sales service provided by the Customer Service Team. I would say that you can purchase this item with complete confidence, knowing how committed the supplier is to ensuring your complete satisfaction.

This is a really nice bit of kit. The box includes the main control board, a microphone, a small tripod, a USB-A to USB-C adapter, a USB-A to USB-C cable, the microphone cable, one 3.5mm audio cable and a manual.This is my first time using something like this and I found it very easy to set up and the manual helped me figure out what each button does. I am still getting used to the audio adjustment sliders but I am sure with a bit of practice I will get better at using them. I like the 8 pre-programed special effect buttons and I like that it has 4 extra special effect buttons, which allow me to add my own special effects.I really like that it is rechargeable. I haven't used it long enough to fully test the battery life, but the product description states it has a 4 to 6 hour battery life which I think is great if you have to record a remote podcast. It is fairly small so it doesn't take up too much space on my desk and it is also easily portable due to its compact size.The sound quality from the microphone is really good. I really like the gate button on the control board as it blocks out the unwanted background noises and it does a great job at doing so..There are two 6.35mm TS ports on the back of the control board which allows you to plug in two microphones if you want to do a podcast with someone else. You could also plug in a microphone into one port and an instrument into the other port, for example a guitar.I think it looks really nice and it works well. Overall I am very happy with the product and I would happily recommend it.

I'm not sure what I was expecting with this but I think I'm pleasantly surprised. It lets you mix multiple microphones so ideal for podcasts, but also features lots of other sound effects you can add. You can't use it for much beyond audio, but it's compact and easy to use - good value as well.

What an excellent starter kit this is for aspiring singers, podcasters and even content creators. I will say that it isn't the best bit of kit, but for £110, it really is good value, especially since everything comes in one bundle box, ready to set up and use. In this set you have a microphone and a control pad for sound effects and controlling sound settings. I personally did some test runs doing an interview for my university project and the audio quality was clear enough. I used adobe audition to record the audio but Audacity also works. I personally prefer Adobe Audition as it easily connects audio with video on premiere pro with ease importing of files.The audio doesn't sound HD like popular podcasts do, but it is still clear without crackling or background noise. The background noise reduction settings work well too and are also very efficient. You can always make the audio quality better by editing it directly in Audition/Audacity. I tend to use equaliser just to keep the audio levels consistent throughout. The product is well presented and works perfectly fine for amateur podcasters looking to set one up on a budget. Plenty of settings and good value audio quality. 5 stars!Thank you for reading my honest review, I hope you found it helpful! :)

4 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This podcast setup has almost everything you need to begin podcasting- it comes with a decent mic 🎤, mic stand, sound board interface, cables, adapters- the only thing you need is to connect your phone, tablet, or computer to record or stream/upload to your podcasting platform, such as YouTube, Rumble, Twitch, etc.The main interface gives you the ability to run a “show” similar to a radio 📻 call 📱 ☎️ in show- you connect your phone 📱 to one of the 3 inputs for phones 📱 on the back using the included cable (or a higher end cable if you have one) and you can answer and take calls ☎️ “on the air” and talk to them about whatever you want. Multiple phones 📱 will let you take up to 3 callers simultaneously.The interface has a mic 🎙 preamp, which lets you adjust the sound via a 3 band e.q. (Bass/Mid/Treble), along with a noise gate to help reduce background noise, add reverb, even auto tune singing. The included mic 🎤 isn’t super high end, but it sounds about as a good as a Blue Yeti, and is very usable. I don’t know if it’s suitable to record instruments like guitar 🎸 or drums 🥁, but for speech, it is decent.The interface lets you set your mic level, add background music by adding a device to one of the inputs, take callers or other guest speakers, and has several sound effects built into the board, like applause, laughter, screams, crying, explosions, and spaces for you to add your own sound effects to the custom preset buttons.The learning curve is a little high for people new to this, but there are several videos online of people demonstrating how to use this board, so it’s not super difficult to figure out. You also can see what this rig is capable of- and when properly setup, it really sounds decent. It might not be suitable for producing a big complicated show- but if you want to do a show like Joe Rogan, Lex Fridman, or game like PewDiePie, this rig will do it, and will give you very decent, listenable sound quality while doing it, along with the basic features you need.I hope this helps. Thanks for reading and liking.

I just started blogging and being very active on social media about a year or so ago. This setup had made the experience so awesome! The mixer was easy to set up and the sound output is clear and sounds really good. This setup makes my blog so professional sounding and I love how easy the mixer was to learn and use. I definitely have a lot of subscribers now and this setup was a big part in growing my channels! Definitely recommend it! It sounds amazing with my speakers and easily connected to them.

I use this set in our church media room. It was easy to connect to our streaming system. The sound quality is excellent, and the mixer is straightforward. The microphone is decent. This is just what we needed to elevate our Sunday streaming experience.

Okay, so I finally got around to checking out the Donner podcast interface. So far, it's a definite step up from the one I previously had. Plug it in, turn it on and fire away. I read the instructions, but actually learned more just by being hands on and with a bit of trial and error was able to start figuring it out. It was fun, up to a point, but I started noticing limitations with the enclosed microphone. First of all, I'm not a big fan of any mic that uses a micro jack or ¾ jack and I was really disappointed to see that the unit did not in fact have an XLR port. After all, they enclosed a condenser mic with a XLR plug. I tired the mic they sent, but it was so noisy that I had to turn it off. I mean seriously, the TV was on in the other room and it picked up the background noise better than it did my voice right in front of it. What I did was take one of my better condenser mics, run it through my current studio interface which also had phantom power, ran that out to the Donner and it was a day and night difference. I did like the tones of the Donner as far as adding depth and richness to the voice and once I added in a decent mic those qualities really come out. I will probably use this in conjunction with my midi keyboards to be able to expand the sound effects range and have better control over the interface. But for a start up podcast sound board, I would have to say this is a pretty good one to start with. And even if I don't ever do a podcast, this interface will be perfect for doing home videos or even an upscale karaoke show. So while I'm still learning, I'm very happy with the unit at this point and just like the other Donner products I have, this one is quality made like I've come to expect from them. Thank you.

The media could not be loaded.  Very capable and portable podcast and musical instrument console that would be perfect for mixing a couple of instruments with background music, doing voice overs, as a soundboard mixer for basic DJ work, or for creating podcasts.Comes with a basic equalizer for the mic, but not separate channels for modifying additional mics or instruments. You can have as many as two mics or musical instruments, plus an audio auxiliary in port and three outlets that work both in and out and can be attached to a variety of digital devices. There is also a speaker port, a headphone port, and a USB-C port that can either be used to charge the unit’s battery or for connecting directly to a computer. Additionally, the unit has Bluetooth, so you can stream music onto it and the volume on that channel is controlled with a console slider.The console has 8 programmed sound bites (applause, laughter, a scream, etc…) that can be played at the push of a button. There are also 4 open buttons that you can use for your own recorded elements — so you can have a little fun.I played around with it and recording a short clip with my first test (video audio attached). The reverb was a bit high, but that can be adjusted the next time around. For the test, all I had connected was the provided mic to the console, an MP3 player playing music connected by Bluetooth, a pair of iPhone headphones inserted into the console headphone jack, and the console connected to my iPad and recording on GarageBand. All needed cables and connectors are provided in the bundle.I’m sure a little testing and switching a few settings will greatly improve the sound quality and can be played with to get the sound you want.The console features AutoTune that can be set to one of 12 different musical keys, a Gate switch that is really effective at cutting background noise, a switch that cuts the music or sound effects as soon as you speak into the mic, and several settings that allow you to add a ton of reverb (which is probably most useful for musicians).The mic itself is high quality. It picks up sound in all directions, but gives the best response directly in front and in back of the mic. It would be perfect for a solo podcaster or for interviewing someone directly across from you and at about the same distance from the mic. The small folding mic tripod is sturdy and compact.This set would make a fantastic traveling podcasting kit or a nice step up for someone graduating from podcasting using just a tablet or smart phone.
