Blue Microphones Snowflake
MSRP: $80 Cardioid Condenser Microphone
Description
Based on the design of the Blue Snowball, which was Blue’s first USB microphone, the Snowflake is smaller, more portable, and more convenient: the microphone has an integrated case that doubles as a mic stand, capable of hanging from the top of a laptop screen or standing on a desktop. The included USB cable fits inside the case.
The Snowball is a good deal bigger and offers an omnidirectional pickup pattern (as well as two cardioid modes). This is not true of the Snowflake, possibly making the Snowflake less-well suited to interviews. The single-element design is intended for telephony (Skype), voiceover, narration, and voice recognition — basically anything that involves one speaker in relatively close proximity to the microphone.
Blue has not released any product details yet, but you can see Blue founder Skipper Wise show off a prototype Snowflake at the Fall 2007 AES show; see the video link in the sidebar.
