Can I use an XLR to 3.5mm adapter to plug this into a computer microphone jack? Thanks!

If you want to go direct into the computer you'll get better results w/ a USB mic. Otherwise, as others have noted, you will need both adapters and some sort of pre-amplification. For the price of all that you can get a good USB mic that will go direct into the computer.

You should never do that, you need a preamplifier to boost the signal. Try a little audio mixer.

Absolutely! You'll need the right adapters which could be pricey. I think you might be more satisfied with a combination headphone microphone setup which would need no adapters. Depending on what you're trying to accomplish.

I don't see why you couldn't connect it if you have a 3.5 mm adapter, although I have never done that before. Not sure how it sounds when recording but to give you a suggestion, you might want to look for a different product because to me it doesn't seem like a good choice if you're trying to record a voice or something else. It's mostly good for live situations, like if you're plugging it into an amp to have a jam session. Hope this helps!

Dear Eric, Thank you for your question regarding our 3.5 mm cable. As long as your cable for your Microphone uses a 3.5mm jack, this cable will work. Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions. Thanks, BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

you would have to get an adapter from 1/8' (3.5mm) jack to XLR but that SHOULD work

Yes, an XLR cable is what it is designed to use, however, a USB cable is only to be used to connect the Mic interface to a computer and an XLR to USB cable will not work as a direct connection to/from the Mic.

No.... it's a microphone cable adapter from xlr to 1/4 inch.....and it didn't work great for that either....noisy...

You need a XLR to USB adapter, but I don't recommend using this mic for a computer.You are better off with a Blue Yeti mic: Blue Microphones Yeti USB Microphone - Silver

I have only used these microphones connected to a PA system through an XLR cable, but it also has a 1/4 inch output jack and you may be able to used a 1/4 inch male to 3.5 mm male adapter cable and plug it into the mic input on your computer. I have been able to use this setup with other wireless mics in the past to patch them into Skype, but haven't used it with this one. For PA use this mic is a great buy, decent quality, good range.

This adapter is to be connected to the audio output only. It will not work with a microphone. I use my adapter to connect 2 computers to one amplifier. Works great!

If you have the USB version technically you don't the card for anything if you have the analog one yes you can plug it using the 3-pin XLRM-type to standard 1/8" jack. Good Choice with the Audio-Tech, one of the best Mics in the market by the way.

This works with a xlr cable you need a usb.This mic uses power supplied thru cable...just a guess..no

It may not be optimal, but you could craft a combo of converter plugs and put it in the computer's mic or input jack. I've done something similar before, and if you aren't looking for perfect audiophile quality it should be fine.

Yes, a simple XLR cable into a preamp will do the trick. No other converters needed (as long as you have an audio interface of course).

Yes. We did that a few weeks ago. You do need the 1/4" to 1/8" adapter of course. But our unit had a lot of hum/hiss in it, rendering it unusable.I'm thinking that cabled versions (shielded cables) might be an option (saw them in Russia recently, ironically).But I decided this is awkward unless you have one mike per person, so I'm looking at sensitive microphones. Some seem to be able to cover large areas. For which a USB interface seems to be suggested, not plug in. Sound cards in PCs seem to not be adequate for good results, I've read - and experienced.

You are going to need a cord with on one side a female xlr and on the other side a 1/8" jack plug. If you can only find a cord with 1/4" jack plug you can use a reducing adapter to make it 1/8".

XLR to microphone and USB into Mac. Mine worked a little better (less laggy) when I used the USB 2.0 jack. In hindsight, I would've bought XLR - 1/8 in mini plug and used the mic input and it might have worked better.
