According to our studio microphone expert
The TIE TUR 88 Supernova Usb is a condenser microphone and is used in the studio for recording podcasts and live streams. Thanks to the built-in sound card you immediately start streaming or singing. You do not need an external sound card that converts the analog signal and sends it to your computer. Due to the omnidirectional directional characteristic you register the sound of a group of speakers. The microphone is now all around sensitive and therefore absorbs the sound from all sides. Connect headphones and listen to your voice recordings. That way you can immediately hear how it sounds.

The microphone is truly plug and play. It is very easy to use and fine-tune because of the settings on the mic itself. I did have to delve into the icons and different shooting modes myself. The description that came with it offered no help whatsoever.
The only thing you have to pay attention to is that your PC does not immediately recognize the microphone as such. After all, you don't connect it to your sound card. You will have to add the device in the settings of Windows itself. You also have to adjust the recording volume yourself in the advanced sound settings. I found out because in testing I got feedback that I still sounded soft with the volume on the mic turned up all the way. Seemed strange to me for a product of about 80 euros.
I personally like the design of the device. It's also not in the way because you don't have to point it to be perfectly intelligible (microphone continues along the side.
The only real downside is that the mic stays on, even if you turn off the PC. So it's best to mute the mic (button on the front) when you turn off the PC or remove the plug. It is nice that the mic remembers what the settings are and also switches on muted when you put the plug back in the device.
All in all I am very satisfied with this microphone and my fellow gamers think the quality is really good.
