Now you have an easy way to maximize your voice power at your next party... or even home alone in front of a mirror. Just hook up Logitech's USB Microphone to your PlayStation 2, start up a karaoke game, and soon you'll be crooning like Sinatra in the comfort of your living room. With its high-quality construction, this durable microphone will last longer than your voice. And its fifteen foot cable makes it perfect for the trials of a busy gaming environment.
Make like Sammy Davis or Sammy Hagar with the Logitech karaoke microphone. Compatible with Sony PlayStation2 karaoke games, such as
Karaoke Revolution by Konami, the USB mic amplifies all your favorite songs while you sing along. The device includes a 15-foot cable, long enough to let you strut your stuff before passing it to a friend, and its durable construction ensures it will last through everything from Simon & Garfunkel ballads to AC/DC shriekfests. Unlike many karaoke mics, this unit accurately reproduces sound, so your voice doesn't sound tinny or remote. The mic hooks up to your PlayStation2 through its USB port.
1 Great for kids!
I've gone through 3 headsets so I decided to buy this microphone. It has been wonderful! We've had it for several months now and we've never had a problem with it. I'm planning on buying another one since we're using a headset when we play multiplayer games and my kids argue over who has to use the headset since we all hate it. I'll never buy another headset. These are also half the price of the headsets which makes it an added bonus.
2 Great....for a while.
I bought this mic for Karaoke Revolution,it worked great for about a week, then static and finally it totally died. I will not be buying another one of these.
3 This mike DIES very easily!
We love the Karaoke revolution games - but we are on mics 5 & 6 - these have lasted longer than our previous ones as we duct taped them when new in hopes that the static would stay away. But BRAND new for Xmas...and within 2 weeks nothing but static on one mic and the other isn't picking up anyone's voice any more. Sony's Singstar game comes with mics that are way more sturdy (they have held up fine) - but the game is no where near as fun as Konami's Karaoke games! I wish logitech would fix it so the mics would have more lasting power!
4 urgh!!
got this mic along w/ karaoke revolution 3 as a christmas gift. worked awesome. mic picked up my voice even when i was singing really low. we had the static not too long after and had assumed we were singing too close to the mic or that we had set it on sensitive. however on 12/27 (3 days of play), it died. i went to put my son down and when i came back, that was it. no forewarning. nothing. if anyone out there finds a good mic (i've yet to find out w/ usb ps2 compatibility) or headset, please let me know. thanks. other than that, it was fun while it lasted. but mic is a total letdown.
5 SOOOOO Disappointed
We love Karaoke Revolution games and were so excited to get our new hand held microphone. Amazingly we all scored platinums with this mic but that was only the first two days of playing. Like one of the other reviews it started with intermittent crackling then sound going out totally to now NOTHING. It's totally gone. I want to buy another, but after reading the reviews on the second and third purchases I refuse. Hopefully Logitech comes out with something more sturdy!! Don't waste your money, stick with the headset until something better comes along.
6 Mic Trouble
I first bought (yes I said `first') this item when I got the set of Karaoke Revolution disk. Boy did we have fun, then, at first it was just a little noise coming from the speakers. Than intermittent shorting out of the sound. Then nothing. This after just a few days.
Must admit Amazon was great in the way they handled the matter, they asked me to return the item, and sure enough shortly after a replacement came Boy did we have fun(of course we handled this new one with baby gloves), Did not help, within two weeks the same thing happened again, dead, kaput.
I had to buy another one (this time one that I saw in a store). So I am now on the third one within weeks. Other wise works pretty good (that is, when and while it works)
First two were very easy to go bad, hope I have better luck third time a round.
Will keep you up dated on how long this one works.
7 This is better than the headset!!
This microphone is so much better when used with Karaoke Revolution games. You don't have to keep adjusting the headset with each different player, you just pass the mic!! Mine worked great until my dog chewed it, so I'll be buying two more to go with the Karaoke Revolution 3 game!! This is an excellent price too! It costs $20 on Logitech's website.
8 Do Not Buy This!!
I purchased this for my daughter's birthday to go with the PS2 Karoke Revolution game she received. The michrophone quit working after about 30 minutes!! I contacted Logitech for a replacement, and it was a HASSLE!! I received the replacement about 2 weeks later. That microphone worked for 1 month before also breaking. Obviously, there are some design problems with this product. It was not used in any way except for the way it was intended to be used. VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!
9 Stinky
It broke both times. I returned it. You stand on teh cord once and it breaks. Amazon do you have a wireless one??? It would be nice. Get one!
10 Simply Perfect
If you play Karaoke Revolution or American Idol video games, then this mic is for you! You can say goodbye to all the problems with the headset, especially when more than a couple people are playing. You can just pass the mic instead waiting until every player gets adjusted using the headset mic. Plus, it fits everyone! Some players fit the headset perfectly but the ones who don't suffer. They get the mic right but not the earpiece, or the earpiece right and not the mic. It registers your voice accuately. This handheld is perfect!
11 Worth Every Penny
If you like Karaoke Revolution 1 or 2, don't stop to think -- just buy this mic. I absolutely promise you will see your scores soar!
I got mine a month before Karaoke Revolution 2 came out and I was very tired of having to hold the headset mic to my mouth to get it to register. I have a small head, so the size was correct, the prepackaged mic just wasn't good enough for music. I was so tired of singing the correct notes, yet seeing the indicator fly around the screen because of the poor mic. The handheld mic totally fixed this. From what I understand, this was very typical behavior as well. Also, my husband is 6'6 and he couldn't even begin have the headset mic anywhere near his ear and still have the mic near his mouth.
This handheld mic solves all those problems. Not only that, you get to look more like the characters in the game. Then you can give the mic that came with Karaoke Revolution 1 to some kids and let them use it for part of a Halloween costume! They'll think it's a great role-playing toy!
