Youtube channel and this is perfect for my voice overs and even recording my voice
for music. (I'm a creative goof, so I am recording food remixes to my favorite songs LOL)
I am sure there are better ones out there for music, but this mic is fabulous
for the person looking for an intro mic that does a fabulous job. I wasn't down to spend $100
on a microphone just to do voice overs. I don't have another mic to compare it to, but honestly
don't think I'll ever need one if this one lasts. I did buy a pop filter for this mic and do notice the difference
in recording quality. The distortion goes way down if I'm singing loudly into the mic with the pop filter.
In other words, buy it. It's affordable and does the job well.
**3 YEAR UPDATE*** May 2021
I bought myself some sound healing instruments for my birthday, and recorded them on this 3 year old Blue Snowball Mic yesterday using FCPX as the software. This mic is a CHAMP! It picks up the most minute sounds. In the 3 years I've had this mic, I've recorded hundreds of voice overs, meditations, karaoke sessions, yoga classes, and just started recording sound baths. I didn't think this mic would pick up the tuning fork, but HOLY WOW! The tuning fork sounds like a crystal singing bowl when recorded with this mic! It can pick up the imperceptible sound from the fork I cannot hear as the vibration slows. I also just moved and now live near a freeway and this mic even picks up the soft hum of the cars that echoes through my ceiling vent. THAT's how sensitive this mic is. I stand corrected from my initial review, this mic might be great for music recording if you need a budget friendly mic. This mic is so sensitive, I have to be careful not to swallow or breathe too loud, lol, because it picks that up, too. The video I posted is of a tuning fork 432 hz, and a tongue drum tuned to C. (Mind you, this is my first day playing the drum after a couple of hours)
