Review on USB Stereo Sound Card Adapter for Microphones and Headphones - Antlion Audio, Compatible with PCs, PS4, and USB-Ready Devices, Type-A USB to 3.5mm Audio and Mic Jacks by Richard Basque

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible/choppy sound on Mac OS X with Zoom

This device didn't work properly with Zoom - I suspect some kind of bitrate mismatch. It worked fine in many other contexts, but maybe something in the zoom setup is causing the problem. After opening for about 10 seconds, the sound becomes very intermittent, glitchy and unrecognizable. I replaced it with SoundBlaster and everything is fine. I strongly suspect that the device is ignoring some settings and simply returning an audio stream with the wrong bitrate, which is causing the mismatch.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Upgradable
