Does the mute button mute the computer's input audio signal or does it just mute the microphone itself from sending audio to the computer?

The button does NOT mute audio input on your PC! The button turns on/off the mic's integrated sound card to bypass your PC's sound card. With the button off, the mic is still active and listening through your PC's sound card. With the button on (LED is red), the mic's input signal is boosted and clarity is theoretically improved. There is no way to mute the mic without disabling ALL of your PC's audio input devices, thereby muting all input signals to your PC.

Does the base supply phantom power?

The USB connection powers the microphone. If you have any further questions please contact us at 800-644-9525.

Many gooseneck microphones cost $20-$30. this ecs microphone costs $60. what are the advantages of this microphone - over the cheaper ones?

Our WordSentry USB is made entirely of high quality metal for extreme stability and durability. The microphone itself is unidirectional for superior recording quality as opposed to the omnidirectional microphone most cheaper, plastic microphones contain.

seems like a lot of trouble just to adjust the volume. Why isn't there a volume control on the mic?

Hi Peachygirl, full volume control is on the device you plug this microphone into.
