Blue Snowball Microphone Vs Cardiod

I realise this is not what it was designed to do...but I use this screw to mount my Blue Snowball microphone to my GlideGear TMP-50 Teleprompter. The arm that holds the smartphone clips on the teleprompter already has a small threaded portion at the tip, so adding this screw was easy. The shaft is the exact length I needed to go through the arm. It screws perfectly into an Auray adapter. Now my microphone is mounted right in front of me (and out of the shot) and I'm getting much better audio!

well It works very well to support my blue snowball microphone. not so many things bad about it all good things its sturdy best weight and even works for some small video recorder's... its an all out great mic stand...

With Youtube videogame commentaries become more and more popular, the Blue Snowball microphone has become the golden standard alongside the Hauppauge HD PVR.

The cable allowed me to move our Blue Snowball Condenser Microphone far enough away from the computer to make an online kenpo karate class audible, and instruction possible. Inexpensive, did its job, it was exactly what we needed.

I was sketchy about B&H when I looked up ''Blue Snowball'', $39.99 sounded like a sketchy price for a microphone, but after I placed my order, it shipped a few hours after ordering, I don't trust DHL after my phone case was in transit FOREVER they claimed it as ''LOST''. With this microphone though, it arrived in 4 days after shipping. I am a variety streamer and I was looking for a new microphone. Someone recommended BLUE MICROPHONES, so I looked for the cheapest microphone, and Blue Snowball was my only option since the YETI was $100. This microphone has worked ever since I got it all setup and has been working since. Great customer service helping me get the microphone setup.

The Blue Snowball Microphone is easy to use, just plug and record. I have used it for mostly voice overs, which records great! I haven't really had any issues that I can think of.

Need a Microphone for podcasting? Voice overs? or even something to record that song you've been working on for the past 10 years? Then look no further. The Blue Snowball Microphone is for you. Set up was a breeze. I was able to set up the Snowball within 7 mins and begin to use it the moment after. On setting 1 I recorded some voice overs to test the quality of the audio to see If this infamous Snowball was all it was cracked up to be. I was shocked and Impressed! The audio the Snowball had captured was crisp and clear with no unwanted noise in the background. So here's the verdict. Pro's: Clear Audio, Easy to setup/use, Multiple audio functions, Sturdy build. Con's: The only con I have found for the Snowball is that there is no On and Off switch so you have to unplug the little guy every time you want it off. Whether or not you're a professional or a beginner the Blue Snowball Microphone will be sure to be a purchase that you won't regret.

This microphone picks up almost any sound you can throw at it in an environment. It does have a cardiod pickup pattern so sounds behind it aren't going to be very noticeable, but any sound within its pattern is extremely clear and well defined, and the patttern even though it's cardiod is still somewhat wide. If you need something within an extremely directional pickup you might want to get a mic with a super cardiod pattern, but otherwise this mic is a fantastic piece of equipment.

I bought the Blue Snowball for online V.O. work, and in 3 weeks I've made $1000. 'Nuf said!

... the Blue snowball works great .I use this to record accoustic guitar directly to my computer and am very satisfied !
