" ...  Now I have to order a cable in order to use it, and I am not sure what kind of cable to buy.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I recommend the microphone itself but DO NOT ORDER THE MODEL WITH A CABLE. ... The Shure cable that came with this microphone got stuck in my interface (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 2nd gen) the first time I plugged it in. ... The cable is low quality too and adds noise to recordings.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Cords are too short otherwise great product  ...  "
comment
" ...  At first I thought I just had a crappy cable and bought a couple of Pig Hogs but that didn't fix the issue.  ...  "
