  1. Christopher Adams

    -Very good sound quality -low noise thanks to the gain control, -control headphones with volume control (the microphone works as a USB sound card), -USB connection – no need to have a mixer / sound cards with xlr socket support as in a classic microphone Disadvantages ( after a few days of non-stop work) -With a full day of work, it can hang for a second or two, but in a moment it works.

    Maybe it results from a temporary increase in CPU load – large average microphone – 60mm practically impossible to buy a sponge / windscreen for this microphone – there is no anti-vibration basket on the market …

  2. Rachel Burke

    Dear gullible readers,

    Today, I’m here to shatter the illusions created by Christopher Adams about the Sony, ICD-UX570. Let me tell you, this so-called great microphone is nothing more than a horror story waiting to happen.

    Firstly, let’s talk about the very good sound quality. While it’s true that the mic delivers decent audio output, what Adams fails to mention is the terrifying hiss and static noise that plagues this product. It’s as if a thousand ghostly voices are whispering in your ear. The gain control does little to mitigate the issue; in fact, it seems to amplify it, leading me to believe that Sony may have unleashed some sinister entity into the microphone.

    Secondly, the control headphones with volume control feature is a blessing and a curse. On one hand, it’s convenient to adjust the audio levels without having to fiddle with a separate device. But on the other hand, the volume can suddenly spike to deafening levels, causing your ears to bleed and your eardrums to rupture. I swear, the first time I heard that loudspeaker-like sound, my heart stopped, convinced that a vengeful spirit had possessed my microphone.

    The USB connection is another double-edged sword. On one hand, it eliminates the need for additional equipment like mixers or sound cards. But on the other hand, it makes the mic vulnerable to hacking and virus attacks. I’ve heard reports of malevolent entities sneaking into people’s computers via the microphone, causing all sorts of havoc. You can’t even trust your own devices anymore; it’s like living in a horror movie.

    But the real nightmare begins with the disadvantages that Adams briefly touched upon. Yes, the mic can freeze up for a few seconds at a time, but what he didn’t mention is the way it feels when this happens. It’s as if the microphone has come alive and is staring right into your soul. You feel its unblinking gaze upon you, paralyzing you with fear. And that large average microphone? Don’t even get me started on that. I swear, it’s like a gaping maw waiting to swallow you whole.

    Lastly, the lack of a sponge or windscreen is truly unsettling. It’s as if Sony wants you to be vulnerable to outside forces. Without protection, every gust of wind becomes a terrifying whisper in your ear, and every cough or sneeze from the people around you sounds like a bloodcurdling scream. The absence of an anti-vibration basket is equally unsettling. It’s as if Sony is daring you to knock over your computer or recording equipment, causing everything to fall apart like in a horror movie scene.

    In short, I would highly advise against buying the Sony, ICD-UX570. It may appear harmless at first glance, but trust me, it’s a ticking time bomb waiting to unleash unspeakable horrors upon you. Stick to more conventional microphones, and for God’s sake, invest in some anti-vibration baskets and windscreens. Your sanity will thank you for it.

    Yours truly,

    [Your Name]
