We were really impressed by the tripod that came with it. The swivel adaptor has a standard microphone thread on one side and a “camera tripod” on the other side that connects to the bottom of the microphone. The ball joint lets you change the angle to suit your needs.The USB cable that comes with the mic has a USB-C plug that fits into the bottom of the mic. It’s at an angle, which is nice. On the bottom, there is a mute button in the middle, a headphone jack for monitoring direction, and a volume control for the headphones.

Where to get JLab Talk Go USB Microphone?
When you plug the JLab Talk GO into your computer, it’s very easy to start using it right away. You can connect the mic to a live program like Skype or to a digital audio workstation (DAW) to record audio. By pressing the bottom button once, you can turn the Talk GO on or off. If you press and hold it, you can switch between cardioid and omnidirectional recording. The cardioid polar pattern mostly picks up sound from where the JLab logo is, right in front of the mic capsules.
This kind of polar pattern works well for most types of recording, like making a podcast or recording vocals for a song. The omnidirectional polar pattern picks up sound from all directions, so you can talk into the mic from any side. This is useful if you want to record something like a meeting in a conference room.
Also, there’s a single button at the bottom that lets you do a lot. Holding down the mic’s mute button lets you switch between its two polar patterns, which are called “cardioid” and “omnidirectional.” A ring of LED lights at the bottom of the mic shows what polar pattern it is (green or blue, or red when muted). Also worth noting is that, unlike the Talk Pro, you can actually see the lights on this microphone.
