Blue Snowball Usb Microphone, Questions about the mic Options

[GreyHope]

Hey, I'm curious to know if anyone knows anything about Blue's Snowball USB mic...it was recommended to me by my guitar teacher to use for desktop recording. He said I didn't need an interface with it becuase it connects directly to the computer via USB.

thx

Hey guys, I've used both Blue's Snowball and Samson's C01U and prefer the Snowball, it crisper and clearer. It also makes vocals sound really warm and full. I've only used it once for brass (trumpet) and it sounded fantastic. I'm currently studying audio engineering at NYU and so I've used alot of traditional mics and I have to say that the Snowball stacks up nicely to many of those mics. I don't know about problems with Logic, but I've used it with Digital Performer, Cubase, and ProTools with out any problems. My younger brother uses one for podcasting, which I heard it's really good for.

Hope this helps...
Mike
