Samson Sound Deck Software. Available as a paid download, the Samson Sound Deck Noise Cancellation Software brings noise cancellation technology for enhanced VoIP communication and computer recording to your UB1.

Last week Apple World Today took a look at the, a small ball-shaped USB microphone that did a surprisingly good job of capturing sound in our review. This week we're looking at an even smaller USB microphone from Samson -- the ($64.99 MSRP, available for $29.99 from Amazon affiliate link). Why would someone plug one of these into a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro when that device already has a built-in mic?

Well, the Go Mic Direct supposedly works with Samson's Sound Deck Software to provide noise cancellation, which is usually helpful if you're recording in a noisy environment. Design The design of the Go Mic Direct is actually quite interesting: the microphone itself is on a swivel mount on a tiny L-shaped stand with a push-out USB connector built into it. The connector is nicely protected in transit, although the entire mic can be placed in its padded 'jewel box' plastic case for extra protection. The entire thing is tiny. It's not going to take up much room in anyone's equipment bag, so it would be perfect for podcasting or interviews on the road.

There's a status LED on either side of the device, so it doesn't matter which way it's plugged in; you'll still be able to know if the Go Mic Direct is ready to go. The mic itself is made out of a solid piece of aluminum, with metal grilles on both sides -- silver on one side, black on the other. Let's see how this little guy worked. Function For my testing, I installed the Samson Sound Deck Software for Mac OS X () so I could get a feel for how well the noise cancellation worked.

The writeup of the app on the Samson website is a bit misleading, showing the Windows version and a full color interface with equalizers, etc. In actuality, I couldn't find the app anywhere until I looked in System Preferences.

I recorded two short 12-second messages, both with a dishwasher running in the background. Here's the initialrecording from a MacBook using its built-in microphone. Both recordings were run through Audacity to bring them to about the same volume. The raw MacBook recording was very loud with a lot of noise in the background, while the Go Mic Direct recording was much quieter, but with some noise still present. Listening to both through headphones, I felt that the sound quality of the Go Mic Direct was much better than what was achieved with the built-in mic.
