Review on Blue Snowball Condenser Microphone Cardioid by Jhalak Mehra ᠌

Has some pros Let me tell you right now, I'm not a sound expert. Therefore, the opinion, rather, of a simple user who needed to voice several videos. The Blue Snowball iCE USB Microphone was selected based on reviews on related resources. Of the requirements, there was only a clear voice without distortion, a small (relative to an entry-level microphone) price and acceptable quality of the product itself. Before that, I used a lavalier wireless microphone (dynamic). Compared to this - the earth and the sky. By the way, Blue Snowball iCE USB is a capacitor type (which is recommended by knowledgeable people). I am satisfied with the purchase. The recorded sound completely suits me and covers the needs with a margin. I think it's a great entry level choice. And another clarification - a plug-n-play microphone. No driver installations, special software, etc. not required. Connected, opened any application (be it a messenger or a recorder) and work! The goods arrived the next day. Well packaged. There are no complaints about the quality of delivery and packaging. The microphone itself is very nice. The only thing - it is, of course, desktop, quite large. It is mounted on a folding tripod (only the legs fold, the rod itself is not telescopic). On the table is very solid and stable. To the sound, I repeat, there are no complaints at all. For dubbing videos or streams, as well as communication via instant messengers, an excellent choice in terms of price / quality ratio. Cons: Perhaps, as a small drawback, this is a poorly visible indicator (red) of work. But I think that it is rather the white color of the microphone that contributes. But this, after all, is more of a nitpick than a flaw.
