<![CDATA[USB Microphone]]>After the release of the voice module(s), I think it’s time to pick up a microphone

Can anyone recommend one?

What should I be looking for, something with an on board sound card?

@strawberry-3-141 , @ronny3050 & @alexyak - What are you guys using?

@Mitchfarino
This is what I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IR8R7WQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It works absolutely fantastic.

Mine just came in today… looking forward to some sort of voice control ;)

It’s literally the same one sold by different vendors.

@ronny3050 @d3r - It’s £11 in the UK, bit of a difference to the US price

Woah that’s expensive compared to the amazon.com one. I’m in Canada and ordered mine from amazon us because it had a guaranteed delivered of 2 weeks after purchase. Mine cost about $5.
Edit: I think the one sold by freedi on amazon us ships worldwide. It ships from hong kong.

Is this the same one?

This is the exact one you guys shared - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kinobo-Microphone-Desktop-Recognition-Software/dp/B00IR8R7WQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1471042843&sr=8-1&keywords=Kinobo+-+USB+2.0+Mini+Microphone

Or this will allow me to have the mic outside of the frame - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kobwa-Desktop-Studio-Microphone-Keyring/dp/B00LHNP5GS/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1471043655&sr=8-5&keywords=USB+2.0+Mini+Microphone

This. Amazon used this mic in their guide to the alexa pi as well.
I ordered mine last week hasn’t arrived yet.

It picks my voice throughout the room and it works very well (at least with the module I am working with). I am very happy with it and I don’t remember any false positives in regards to voice recognition till now. Also note that it is buried very deep inside the frame.

I thought it was going to be something bigger!

What’s it like for picking up sound from within the frame?
