Overview
Whether you're recording a guitar at your kitchen table or a complete band in the studio, the Snowball can capture it with detail unheard of before in a USB mic. The Snowball is a direct plug and play mic that connects to either a Mac or PC—no additional software is needed. And thanks to its dual capsule design and unique three-pattern switch, the Snowball can handle everything from soft vocals to podcasting to the loudest garage band.

Snowball records in 16bit/44Khz using Blue's superior quality condenser capsules.

With three pattern adjustments, the Snowball is ideal for variety of settings. Cardoid is great for vocals, voice over, podcasting, and internet communications. Cardioid with -10dB pad is ideal for instruments. And Omni is best for interviews, live recording and jam sessions.
