Three Different Pattern Modes for Versatile Recording
Using Blue's proprietary dual-capsule technology, the Snowball can record a wide range of situations. Its multiple pattern capability makes it an ideal choice for recording music, podcasts, Skype conversations, and live chat. Depending on what kind of sound you are recording, you can choose from three distinct pattern modes:

  • Cardioid mode: Well-suited to podcasts, sung vocals, and other voice work, cardioid mode records sound sources that are directly in front of the microphone. It delivers a rich, full-bodied sound.
  • Cardioid mode with -10 dB PAD: The same as cardioid mode, except with a -10 dB attenuation that helps you capture louder sounds with higher fidelity.
  • Omnidirectional mode: Omnidirectional mode picks up sound equally from all directions. It is best used in situations when you want to capture the ambience of "being there"--like a live recording of a band's performance.
Innovative Design Makes Recording Easy
With a visual design inspired by classic recording equipment, the Snowball's stylish, retro aesthetic will complement any computer system. Its metal grille and white frame recall the look of old-timey microphones.

The Snowball comes with an adjustable tripod that lets you position the microphone in relation to the sound source, improving sound quality. It also features an LED indicator, which glows red when the microphone is powered.

Hassle-Free Setup
The Snowball requires no complicated drivers to operate; simply plug it into your computer's USB port with the included USB cable, calibrate the microphone with your operating system, and you're ready to record.

The microphone is compatible with Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP (Home and Professional), and Mac OS X (10.4.11 or higher), and requires a minimum of 64 MB of RAM.

The Snowball USB Microphone is backed by a two-year limited warranty.

What's in the Box

Color Name: Brushed Aluminum
Having worked with stage quality microphones before, I must say-this mic is amazing. Once you get past the weird shape of the thing, this mic has far exceeded my expectations. Sound quality using this mic is nearly perfect. It doesn't pick up much background noise, doesn't feedback when used in conjunction with my set of Bose desktop speakers, and has amazing vocal quality. The tabletop stand that ships with the unit is rather limited if you aren't sitting close to the mic, but the unit uses a standard sized threaded fitting, so I attached it to a standard boom stand. That completely addressed any microphone placement concerns I may have had. It's not cheap (about 2/3 of the price of a Shure SM58 microphone), but if you want a really good mic- buy the Snowball!

Everything about this Microphone is awesome. The voice sound, the look, and the multiple capture settings are top notch quality. I've been using it to talk to people over software such as Skype, Team Speak and Raid Call. My sound couldn't be clearer at this price.

The only two things I've found to be a little bit annoying would : the USB cable provided for the Black edition is Silver and everytime I restart my computer or bring it back from sleep the microphone volume always go back to the max value of 100 after changing it manually to a lower value (since the sound is really loud at 100 for other people).

But these two problems aren't anything that really affects the quality of the product so this is why I would totally recommend it to anyone who wants an awesome quality microphone for their personal use.

I only have good things to say about this product.
It was delivered on time, the item was delivered without a scratch and everything in the box is great.
I received a tripod, the USB cable and the wonderful microphone that goes with it, plus there is a guide delivered with it to tell you everything with the product, which is pretty neat when you like to be hands on like I do.

Now about the microphone in itself I have been amazed. I record acoustic songs and lyrics and the quality is definitely studio like. No background sound, just clear voice and instruments (and I have a PC so imagine the possibilities with a Mac).

I recommand this product, great tool and really hands on. You might want to buy a pop filter to optimize the capacity of this baby butb definitely worth it, especially for a quality like that to this price.

Sound quality and level are great for recording voice, there are 3 recordings modes, I only used #1
Easy to use in Ubuntu Linux, even if manual only mentions Windows and Mac.
Tripod is sturdy, telescopic (a couple of inches) and has a decent weight so microphone is stable. Microphone inclination is adjustable.

I would recommend this product to any non-professional looking for good quality recordings at a reasonable price.

I'm a newbie when it comes to recording, and this mic definitely met and exceeded my expectations. An audiophile friend of mine recommended it as a good mic for the price (as I didn't want to spend too much) and it worked out.

At first I was very skeptical about purchasing this. But I took a chance and was totally amazed with the results. I've always had problems with crappy microphones, giving feedback and low volume ETC. But this seals the deal. The volume is really nice! an it cuts back on all the background noise. It's like having a radio station at your computer desk. I use this for Live streaming on twitch, skype calls, an videos. Totally worth the buy!

I have a home music studio and teach piano, voice and accordion. This mic is perfect for recording during lessons as well as recitals. I like the options it has and find the quality sufficient for my needs.
