Is anyone familiar with the Blue Snowball usb condensor mic? If so how does it sound for home recording?

Hmmmmmm..... perhaps nobody knows of it;)

I have never heard of it myself. Did you buy it? If so, let us know what ya think of it.  :wave:

Yes, I bought it and I like it. Its a USB Condensor microphone. The only issue is noise...it is very sensitive to background noise. It will pick up everything. The thing I like about it is it has a 3 position switch on the back of it. The #1 position is a cardioid pickup pattern and reduces the amount of background noise and is good for close up work and has a good proximity effect. #2 position is a a cardioide -10 decibal pickup which is good for loud stuff and the #3 is a omnidirectional pickup and is very sensitive. The #3 has a bright airy sound and seems to be a good fit for acoustical performances where someone is playing a guitar and singing...like you my dear(Bluestainedshoes) and you cant beat the price...99.00.

Well, maybe I'll take your word for it then.

My one and only experience with a condenser mic is that last sub I did (you know... the one where I BLOCKED you??? haha) ..... and I wasn't at all satisfied with the sound I got from it. Or, maybe I should say, the sound IT got from ME? So, that kind of soured me on the thought of using a condenser mic. Maybe, perhaps, I just had the settings and volumes all wrong. (most likely)

I'll check into that one though, and like I said, maybe take your word for it. I kinda like the name of it anyhow.  :whistle:

Do you play guitar? If so, I'd like to hear you sub something acoustic:)
(please?)
