AKG Perception 120 USB

HI!

1. Does anyone have any info about this microphone?
2. How is the monitoring, the latency?
3. Is it ok to use with an onboard audio card?
4. How does the (real-time) amplifying work?

My Hardware
Motherboard: North Bridge Intel Cantiga PM45
Audio-Card: Conexant high definition SmartAudio 221

Thanks

Hi,

don't know too much about it than it appears to be very cheap. I think with every USB mic you have to rely on the DAW software monitoring for the monitoring purposes, so with just a onboard sound card it easily goes wrong with latency issues..

Yes, I am looking for something not expensive. And I found an alternitive: Shure's got 2 microphones PG42USB, PG27USB and a XLR to USB adapter: X2U

LINKS: Better Late Than Never: Shure USB Microphones | eQuixotic

Shure - Microphones - PG42USB Side Address Condenser Microphone

They promise Zero Latency and direct monitoring. Does anyone have any other info?

Thanks
