    Blue Snowball iCE Condenser Microphone, Cardioid - White - 1974

    • I can record voiceovers with ease, not worrying about ambient noise making it into the recording
    • Cuts down on ambient noise well.
    • Be forwarned though that it is very sensitive, so watch those exterior ambient noises when recording
    • It picks up more ambient noise and you don't have a way to reduce the intake on the mic (like you do on the regular, non-Ice, Snowball, where you can switch it to -10db)
    • This microphone does a poor job of ignoring ambient noises, such as key strokes on a keyboard.
    • He says the sound is much better than what he was getting using his headset mic plus the Snowball does a better job of rejecting ambient noise
    • Summary: all in all, this microphone can pretty much float your boat in almost any aspect, it’s cheap price should not fool you as it’s quality definitely does not reflect the low price
    • My husband and best friend both mentioned that Blue Microphones were a very high quality product, as well as by looking at other reviews I was ready to make my order
    • I found that not to be the case for this instance as well as I've recorded multiple videos for Youtube and I love the quality of this microphone and i'll probably have this microphone for a long time
    • I like this mic a
    • and i relized my mic was as good as if i was recroding it on a potato, so i went out and bought this, thought it would be a rip
    • However that set up really never worked as I couldn't get the levels boosted enough to sound right.
    • Waste of money as it hasn’t worked yet
    • I use it to record as well as for voice chatting
    • my laptop won' t recognize it
