Blue Snowflake USB Mic: Unboxing and Review

2011-02-14
what's going on Internet Jonathan here with TLD and today I'm reviewing the blue snowflake portable USB microphone which comes a nice shiny blue snowflake e-box in which you get to snowflake itself the user's manual and wait for wait for BAM you get the USB cable itself in a hidden compartment thus showing off the fact that it is portable so when you're done with it you can throw it in your bag keep it nice and clean which I really dig about this mic it's actually a really cool design not only can you adjust the angle or the microphone but you can actually rotate it 360 degrees to best suit your needs it has a nice brushed aluminum look to it so even though it's plug-and-play it's going to work with PC or Mac it's going to look a little bit cooler next to your MacBook Pro or your iMac because it does retain that Mac aluminum Eskil look as far as the polar pattern goes this is a cardioid USB microphone so this is actually perfect for those of you guys doing skype webcast I know a lot of you guys are doing live streams on Ustream vocal and things like that this will be a huge upgrade instead of just using your built-in iSight or webcam mic it's going to enhance the audio and let me jump over to an example to show you guys exactly how it sounds so I jumped over to the iSight camera on my iMac what you guys are hearing right now is actually the blue snowflake audio being recorded so the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog just so you guys can get a little idea of how it sounds let's go to jump over to the internal mic on the iMac and compare that to this now we're back to the internal microphone on the iMac the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog hopefully you guys can hear the difference between the iMac and the snowflake so you guys heard how it sounds there's a huge difference to my ears hopefully you guys noticed as well probably the best thing about the snowflake is how cheap it is you can actually pick this up for 40 bucks no shipping no text on Amazon I'll post that link down below over on me for 40 bucks you can't go wrong it's plug and play works PC or Mac it looks good sounds good I want to thank Hilary from Blue Microphones for sending this out for review really appreciate it hopefully you guys watched and enjoyed this maybe you guys were looking for a nice USB microphone didn't really want to spend a lot to break the bank this is 40 bucks you can't really beat it for that price and again I will post that link down below if you guys want to pick it up thank you as always for watching feel free to subscribe if you haven't already make sure to check out our two latest videos all the links down below and I will catch you guys later you
