Product Description
An omni boundary microphone that is ideal for teleconferencing & desktop computer use
Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for meetings, teleconferencing, and desktop computer use, Audio-Technica's affordable ATR97 offers the convenience of a high-quality monaural, omnidirectional pickup in a single, easy to position microphone. The mic's professional condenser circuitry ensures excellent sound quality, while its on/off switch gives you a convenient method for conserving batteries. (The mic's internal preamplifier uses a single LR44 battery, included). An omnidirectional pickup pattern is receptive to all sounds in a room, rejecting nothing but still level-sensitive (sound sources closest to the mic will be louder than those further away). The ATR97 comes with a fixed, 4.9-foot (1.5 meter) cable cables terminated with a minijack .125-inch plug. It comes with a .25-inch adapter for use with compatible gear. What's in the Box
Microphone, 1 battery, a mic cable, a .25-inch adapter, and a user's manual.

 Great Quality if it used with Preamp July 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
While some people complain about this mic, to me if it is connected with Mic Preamp with enough phantom power it really shines much better than using the battery that comes with it.
I purchased two of it for stereo recording connected directly via TCC TC-720 Stereo Microphone/RIAA Phono Pre-Amp, Preamp (Preamplifier) and interconnect the Preamp output to the Line-In in the PC sound card(not to Mic-In) which provide a very good quality capture from all directions but you'll have to record in a quiet room to avoid recording unwanted sounds.
Anyway, with these combo you won't be disappointed . . .
Highly Recommended.
 Not worth the money June 9, 2008
I tried this microphone out and it really wasn't worth the money. It recorded with less clarity than uni-directional microphones. And while that is the point of a uni-directional microphone (to dampen out background noise) this seemed to be creating some interferance of its own. I'm sending mine back.
 Did not meet our needs March 10, 2008

I purchasd two of these microphones to record conversations during data gathering meetings using a computer. I was using tools such as Camtasia and Audacity. The mics did not pick up enough of the conversation to be useful. I tried four different computers with the same result, they did not meet our requirements. I purchased a more expensive Sony ECM-F01 and it works as described - great! So I am stuck with two mics that don't perform.
Poor quality for this brand name March 1, 2008
This mic is surprisingly poor quality for a brand name like Audio-Technica. The sound is distant and thin and basically makes the mic unusable for a speakerphone.
Doesn't behave like an omnidirectional mic February 9, 2008
I managed to get sound into my PC only when the recording settings are set close to max. Even then the mic had to be fairly close to my face to record my voice audibly. Definitely not what you'd expect from an 'Omnidirectional Condenser Boundary Microphone'.. a waste of money.
