Amazon is offering its AmazonBasics Portable USB Condenser Microphone for $9.59. Shipping is free for Prime members or in orders over $25. Regularly $15 or so, it has slowly been dropping over the last few months and is now at the Amazon low. Today’s deal is slightly more than $1 below our previous mention. It features a 16-bit/48kHz recording resolution, an omnidirectional pick-up pattern (great for picking up sound from all directions), a travel case and a 1-year warranty. Rated 4+ stars from over 75% of the reviewers. More details below.

While it includes a 5-foot USB cable, you can get some extra reach with the basic Monoprice cables. The 10 footer is under $5 Prime shipped. However, if you’re looking to seriously upgrade your Mac’s recording quality, consider something like the $40 Blue Snowflake.
