so far, I have tried 3 of them, the NT3 mono, the NT4 stereo, and the one 
for the iPhone, (can't remember the model number).
the NT3 and NT4, are both very good, and can be used with either phantom 
power, or can take a standard PP3 battery, so are also good for field or 
out and about work, when phantom power may not be available.
the iPhone one, unless some adjustment needs to be made to it in it's app, 
(which at the time didn't seem very accessible, although that may be 
different now), was extremely disappointing.

hope that helps.

I have a Blue Snowball mic. Not sure how that differs from the yeti

-- it would be perfect for a conference table I guess, ideally, but it's
also good for personal use. I waas a little skeptical at first, but I even

Re: [all-audio] USB microphone

2021-12-31 Thread Brian Olesen
HI,
I have a huge collection of their microphones, and I love them.
They've even made a podcaster usb mic as well, but I think I'd prefer an
Audio Technica over Rode for that purpose.

2021-12-30 Thread Adrian Spratt
Hi  Howard,

Judging by the printed material that comes with the Blue Snowball, the company 
is connected to Logitech. "Blue" has nothing to do with the color. The one I 
bought is black.

Here's the Amazon page: 
https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Snowball-Microphone-Gloss-Black/dp/B002OO18NS

Many years ago, I had a ball-shaped mic that was very good for music.
It was at the beginning of the stereo era and it was only one mic, mono.  We 
didn't use it much for recording our band.  That was in about 1960.  Then I

Still have those Shures.

Re: [all-audio] USB microphone

2021-12-30 Thread JM Casey
Hello hello.
yes, it is a fat ball with a neat design that sits on a small tripod stand. It 
is a uSB connection (this is what Adrian asked for) with the jack located in 
the back of the device.

Well Tom, it's described as a snowball; I assume it's spherical: Does it have a 
stand; and what kind of connection does it have and where is it? Many years 
ago, I had a ball-shaped mic that was very good for music. It was at the 
beginning of the stereo era and it was only one mic, mono.  We didn't use it 
much for recording our band.  That was in about 1960.  Then I bought a pair of 
Shure D55s that we used quite a bit. Still have those Shures.

Re: [all-audio] USB microphone

2021-12-30 Thread Tom Kaufman
Howard:  I don't know that my description will be completely accurate, but here 
goes: the mic itself is shaped much like a ball; don't know what type of 
material it's made out of, but it'd be something (not that I ever would want to 
have to do it) but you could club someone over the head with that thing and put 
their lights out!  It has legs that unfold and set it up like a desk mic (don't 
know the dimensions) it is a USB mic; something that I have found out recently 
could be a "not-so-good thing if you plan to record music with it, due to the 
way it works with latency!  But if you're going to do voice chatting, it works 
very well in my opinion!  Now the model I have (and I really don't have a model 
number) but it has no buttons on it (I know that they make one (or maybe used 
to )that had either a button or switch that adjusted the volume of the mic.  
However, this one I have does not work in this way!  So I hope that my 
description gives you some idea of what this thing looks like and how it works!

Cool. I hope you find it satisfactory.
I must say it looks kind of good on my desk with its funky design. You'll
understand when you get it and put it on its little tripod stand.. it really
is ball shaped and oddly textured.

Hey.

I have a Blue Snowball mic. Not sure how that differs from the yeti exactly,
but it is omnidirectional and basically picks up everything in my apartment
-- it would be perfect for a conference table I guess, ideally, but it's
also good for personal use. I waas a little skeptical at first, but I even
use it for podcasting and it works well enough. It's probably all told one
of the better non-studio-quality mics I've used honestly.

Would someone please recommend a USB microphone for use on Zoom calls?
Thanks.

Thanks, everyone, for your suggestions. I went with JM's Blue Snowball, which 
looks most suitable for my needs.

Re: [all-audio] USB microphone

2021-12-27 Thread John Covici
I have found the akg lyrica very nice, and it has several modes, so
you can use it as a personal, mic, or front and back.  There are
several capsules in it and it has a stand, but you can unmount the mic
from the stand if you want.  I bought it from Sweetwater sound who are
very supportive.

The Blue Yeti  USB mic is great. It's a USB desk stand microphone.
