The Creative Live! Mic M3 is Creative's entry into the world of USB microphones and the company says it's an all-rounder, reaching out to the regular office worker as a conferencing mic, and to the aspiring streamer.

Inside the box, you get a 1.5-meter USB-A to micro-USB cable, a quick start guide, components for assembling a desk stand and a nifty magnetic pop filter. The first thing that struck me while unboxing it was how heavy the included base of the desk stand was; you could actually hurt someone with that thing if you tried. This is a good trait (not for hurting people) for the stability of your microphone.

As for the build of the microphone module itself, it's rather light in comparison. Though they're both made of plastic, it was only the microphone that felt that way. This leads to a very strange weight distribution when you've assembled the desk stand: It's incredibly bottom-heavy. Taking advantage of the heavy base, the desk stand allows the microphone module to tilt back or forward with a total sweep of 90 degrees, while allowing 360-degree rotation for precise angling and placement of the microphone.

The M3 also uses a 1/4-20 UNC thread, so it shares compatibility with tripods if you want another desk stand or mounting solution, though 3/8inch microphone arms are out.
