The C03U features dual 19mm internal shock mounted diaphragms with switchable omni, cardioid, and figure-8 pick-up patterns.

Like others, I purchased this microphone for Podcasting. And I am extremely happy with the Samson C03U. The audio quality is outstanding, the microphone is constructed like a tank (it weighs a pound, and has the same solid feel as a pro-quality camera like Nikon's D2X and D200), and it provides the simplicity of a direct digital connection.I originally considered Samson's similar C01U, but decided to spring for the C03U. The latter provides three selectable pickup patterns (whereas the C01U has a single fixed pattern), a selectable high-pass filter, and finally, a selectable 10 dB pad. The C01U provides neither of the latter, either.Bottom line, the Samson C03U provides outstanding audio quality, and is suitable for Podcasting and other recording uses. Buy it, you will not be disappointed!p.s. Samson's SP01 Shockmount (included in this bundle) is highly recommended as well, and provides isolation from vibrations and the like. Bear in mind that the SP01 fits both the C03U and the C01U (i.e. there is no SP03).

I do a lot of recording for my hobbies of online voice acting and singing, and this mic has been a godsend. It's recording capsule is good enough that even when I have the air-conditioner on, just a few feet behind it, it is not picked up, nor is the washing machine in the next room.

I've used this microphone for recording rap vocals. My place is small so no room to build a soundproof booth (or at least I don't know how to do it). At any rate, good enough for me to record tracks for listening and tweaking BEFORE I spend money to record in an expensive studio. This mic + garage band a mic stand and headphones = more successful studio sessions..
