Fundamentals of Digital Audio Episode 3 Blue Snowball

Note - I'm not so bullish on the Snowball now that I've used it for a year. I sold it and bought an MXL 990.

I review my podcasting rig. I am hoping to create a series of user reviews (as opposed to trade publication reviews). Please send me a review of your rig at digiaudio.podcast@gmail.com.


My rig consists of the new Blue Snowball Usb Microphone, a Powerbook and a 250gb LaCie FireWire hard drive.

Snowball Pros:

  • Fantastic Sound perhaps best of class for a usb mic
  • Plug it in and it works (Mac annd PC) no extra drivers needed
  • Reasonable price ($139 retail

Cons:

  • Can't be integrated with a mixer (it's usb)
  • usb cable and mic stand are not included
