Feels like cheap plastic but works perfectly.

This works really great the sound quality is great and the gain knob it really useful

Quality is great, phantom power works, it's really wonderful!

Its been working well and connects instantly to my PC!

Well, after caring for it well and giving it no reason not to work, it of course stopped working for me

This was the best work-around I could hope for

Plugged direct into windows and controlled via ustream.tv software interface - this worked well, (although we needed a little more gain - obtainable by using better software - cubase, garage band etc), as an interim setup before we could get a more pro level interface for more than one mic etc.

For windows 7 users install can be a pain, but the trick pointed to elsewhere (not searching for drivers) worked great.

However, that is not really an issue because the product works great

It turns out that while the Icicle works, the gain or inbound audio-level is far too quiet to be of practical use most of the time, unless I happen to be sitting hunched over my desk yelling into the mic

My only complaint is that there's not a good way to cut phantom power so that I could try other mics, but unplugging it from the USB worked pretty well

Your mic should now be showing up under “Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Sound” in the recording tab as “USB Audio Device”In a followup email, the support tech added: "Yes, there’s some glitch in Windows 7 specifically that causes the Icicle sometimes to be recognized as a multi-channel device instead of a single channel device, and that causes the firmware to malfunction because it’s looking for more than one channel of audio for some reason."Anyhow, after using the little pre-amp knob to boost the input, the microphone has worked great.

This works well as advertised

Overall, great product, cheap, works on both Mac and PC.I don't know about Linux, as I have never really used it.

Piece o' garbage.
