USB Microphone Delivers Portable, High Definition Sound to Your Computer
HAUPPAUGE, NY – Mar. 17, 2016 – Samson, an industry pioneer in computer audio products, today announces Go Mic Connect, the newest addition to the Go Mic family of portable USB microphones, available before its release to the general public through Indiegogo. Go Mic Connect attaches to your computer monitor, TV or sits on your desk to create superior digital communication and computer recordings in even the noisiest office and mobile recording environments thanks to Samson’s Sound Deck software, equipped with Focused Pattern Technology™ and Digital Noise Reduction. Continuous, repetitive ambient noise is effectively removed from the microphone input, providing cleaner audio for podcasting, gaming, and voice over internet communication. Samson Go Mic Connect is available on Indiegogo at various pledge levels, starting at an Early Bird special price of $40 for a unit.

“We started the Go Mic family nearly eight years ago with a simple idea: to provide passionate creators with a portable device that delivered superior, clean audio,” says Sean Meagher, Samson Director of Marketing. “Today, the Samson Go Mic Connect continues the evolution of our portable USB microphones and advances the category of digital recording.”
Paired with Samson’s groundbreaking Focused Pattern Technology™, the Go Mic Connect allows users to target the microphone’s pickup field, focusing on a desired sound source directly in front of the microphone. Users can adjust the width of the focused pattern to significantly reduce sound originating from outside the set area. The Go Mic Connect also provides Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) filters to improve speech recognition. This makes the microphone ideal for setting priority in large conferences in addition to providing cleaner audio for mobile podcasters, gamers and creators.
The extremely compact Go Mic Connect features an adjustable clip which allows it to be top-mounted on your TV or computer monitor without blocking the internal or external web cam. Users can also plug external speakers into the microphone’s headphone output for voice over IP (VoIP), activating Echo Erase technology to eliminate any unwanted feedback.
The Focused Pattern Technology™/Samson Sound Deck software is compatible with Mac and Windows. The Go Mic Connect can also be used as a standard USB microphone for tablets and smartphones. A USB cable and protective pouch are included.
Go Mic Connect launches on Indiegogo starting at $40 for the first 50 Early Bird units available and will begin shipping late April 2016.
