JBuds Talk USB Microphone Black

The JBuds Talk USB Microphone Black is a USB condenser microphone built for calls, podcasts, gaming, ASMR, and voiceover work, with no drivers or additional software required. It ships in a single black colorway.

The microphone uses three condenser capsules and switches between four pickup patterns: cardioid, omnidirectional, stereo, and bidirectional. Cardioid focuses on a single speaker directly in front of the mic, omnidirectional picks up sound evenly from all directions, stereo captures a wider left-right image for music or ambient recording, and bidirectional picks up two sources facing each other, useful for face-to-face interviews.

Physical controls on the microphone body include a volume dial, a gain dial, and a quick mute button, so levels and muting can be adjusted directly on the microphone during a call or recording session. A 3.5mm input lets the speaker monitor their own mic feed in real time through headphones. Built-in LED lighting is included on the microphone body.

Audio is captured at a 96kHz sample rate and 24 bit depth.

The microphone connects over USB using an included USB-A to USB-C cable and is plug and play with no driver installation needed.

The microphone body weighs 215 grams and measures 5.31 inches long, 2.76 inches wide, and 2.09 inches tall. A 5/8 inch threaded input is included for mounting on a separate stand or boom arm.

Includes: JBuds Talk Microphone, 5/8 inch mounting input, a USB-A to USB-C cable, and a JLab 2 year limited warranty.
