JBL Quantum Stream Talk

The JBL Quantum Stream Talk is a compact streaming microphone. The box contains a microphone that is attached to a table stand and a USB cable. I connect the microphone to my laptop or PC via the USB cable.

Design This is a compact streaming microphone with a sturdy base. This ensures that the Stream Talk stands firmly on the desk. I mute myself quickly with the mute button on the foot, so I mute myself with the push of a button. I cannot unscrew the Stream Talk and it cannot be used with a microphone arm. The USB C and 3.5 millimeter headphone output are located at the back of the base. This is especially useful when I place the microphone a little further away from me. If I move the microphone closer to myself, the cables are very present.

Recordings The Stream Talk records sound from the front and has a supercardioid recording pattern. This ensures that everything is recorded clearly and well during my streams. For example, you hear clicking sounds during the recording if I sit directly in front of the microphone with the controller. You hear this very softly, but it is noticeable. Also because the microphone is always on my desk, I hear unwanted sound in my recording if, for example, I put something on my desk.

JBL Quantum Engine The JBL Quantum Stream Studio gives me access to the JBL QuantumEngine software. With this software I personalize the recording sound of my streaming microphone. For example, I use the equalizer to perfect the recording sound. There is no noise reduction option with this microphone, which I think is a shame. The software is clear, making it easy to use this software.

Are you looking for a compact streaming microphone for a podcast or interview? Then choose the JBL Quantum Stream Talk.

Nice and compact device, but unfortunately too low for practical use. The microphone wasn't recognized by my PC (Windows 10).

I had been looking for a nice microphone for a while to appear more professional during online meetings and possibly record podcasts in the future. I haven't done the latter yet, but I have done the former. The audio is good, connecting to the computer consists of plugging in the USB cable and it is clear by a nice green light when the sound is on or off. Am happy with it
