Street: $99 / MSRP: $189 Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone
Description
USB-powered mic with two capsules and three operational modes: omnidirectional, cardioid, and cardioid with -10dB pad. The mic has built-in A-to-D converters, and outputs digital audio via the USB port at 44.1 kHz, 16 bits.
SoundOnSound
the omnidirectional pattern behaves more like a wide cardioid at most frequencies and the sound picked up at the rear is much duller than the sound picked up at the front.
As of July, 2009, BLUE has sold over 300,000 of the Snowball microphone.
