Only unfortunate thing was that it did not come with any cables. I understand it not coming with an XLR cable, even though I'd like for it to :p, but it did not even have a USB-c power cable! :(. Thankfully, I have a ton of those from other devices (i.e. smartphones), and those did the job just fine.
