Blue Snowball iCE v Samson Meteor USB Microphone Head To Head Blue Snowball iCE v Samson Meteor USB Microphone Head To Head. Which one is best? Watch the video, see and hear the differences between them, then listen to the raw, unedited recordings and compare all the features at http://bit.ly/1QV7MC8 Follow these links to quickly find these microphones in your local Amazon site Samson Meteor Mic http://geni.us/LLv Blue Snowball iCE http://geni.us/2Vb7 This is the third video in my series of head to head comparisons of the most popular USB microphones on the market. In this one I compare two of the most striking and funkiest looking contenders: The Blue Snowball iCE Microphone and the Samson Meteor Mic. These two microphones are similarly priced condenser microphones, but very different looking mics, both are unconventional in appearance. The Blue Snowball and the Samson Meteor Mic are both huge sellers, and althought they look different they have lots of similarities Both are large diaphragm condenser mics, and both have a cardioid pickup pattern. This means they are directional and record from only one side of the microphone, rejecting sound from the side and rear, making them a good choice for a home recording studio situation. They have a similar recording resolution of 16-bit 44.1kHz (the Meteor Mic can also record at 48kHz), they both have a stated frequency response of 20Hz-20kHz, and each microphone has a built in desktop stand. But what about the differences? As you watch the video you can hear the difference between the two, and I also point out the key features of each. The Samson Meteor USB Mic boasts one of the largest condenser diaphragms (25mm) of any USB microphone available for superior recording quality. It also has a headphone port which is extremely useful for direct monitoring, and will give you zero latency when you are recording voiceovers. The legs fold in to the mic to make it a very neat, self-contained, portable microphone, though you can also attach it easily to a standard microphone stand if you wish. The Blue Snowball iCE is an almost iconic design, there is no other microphone quite like it, and it is also a self-contained unit, though perhaps not quite as neat and petite as the Meteor. It does not have any headphone port, so is just a recording microphone. The question is which sounds best? In my opinion the Snowball has the better recording quality, but the Meteor is better featured with the headphone port. So which one do you prefer? Do comment below. If you want to know what any of the technical terms I have used mean, then you might want to look at this page where I have explained in detail about microphone types and specs: http://bit.ly/21NET6g I hope this video and my web resources help you to choose the ideal USB microphone for you. The Meteor or the Snowball would certainly look very handsome in any home recording studio.

Which is the best budget USB studio condenser microphone? Watch this video, see and hear the differences between them, then listen to the raw, unedited recordings and compare all the features at http://bit.ly/1QV7MC8 Follow these links to quickly find these microphones in your local Amazon site CAD U37 http://geni.us/1vMl Samson C01U Pro http://geni.us/1AM6 Behringer C-1U http://geni.us/3IyM Hopefully this will help if you are trying to choose between these popular budget priced USB mics and decide which one is the best. The Samson C01U Pro, the Behringer C-1U and the CAD Audio U37 are all similar looking large diaphragm USB studio condenser microphones. All three microphones are plug and play studio USB condenser microphones. They are all available at a similar price point, and all are hugely popular best selling microphones. So how do you choose which one to buy? The best way to decide is watch the video, then go and listen to the raw recordings of each mic, so you can directly compare them. I have uploaded full uncompressed recordings of each mic at http://bit.ly/1QV7MC8 To help you further, here is a rundown of each microphones key features: The Samson C01U Pro USB Microphone with Headphone Amp is the newest version of the Samson C01U which was introduced in 2005, and was world’s first USB microphone. The new improved pro version is less noisy than the original, and has a headphone port so you can now direct monitor (listen to yourself while recording without latency). The C01U Pro is a large diaphragm condenser mic with supercardioid pickup pattern which makes it ideal for a home studio as it only records sound from the front of the mic. It comes with a neat little tripod desktop stand with a swivel mount that can be connected to standard microphone stand too. It doesn’t come with any software but you can purchase for $3 noise reduction software with EQ etc via the Samson site. It has a recording resolution of 16-bit, 44.1/48kHz and a smooth, flat frequency response of 20Hz–20kHz. The C01U Pro is a plug and play microphone with a standard USB lead and is easy to set up and use straight from the box. The CAD Audio U37 USB Studio Condenser Mic is a large diaphragm condenser recording microphone with supercardioid pickup pattern so. It does not have a headphone output - you cannot direct monitor what you are recording. You have to listen to recording results on your existing computer speakers or via computer heaphone port. This might lead to some latency. It comes with a tripod desktop stand and has a recording resolution of 16 bit, 48kHz. It has a smooth extended frequency response of 20Hz - 20kHz. This microphone also has a -10dB Pad, and a roll off switch to reduce the proximity effect. It is a plug and play mic which connects directly to your computer via a mini USB lead. I found that the U37 very sensitive, it was necessary to turn the levels down so as not to get clipping, and I thought the recording quality was better with the -10dB pad switched on. Finally, the Behringer C-1U Studio Condenser Microphone is a large diaphragm condenser microphone with a standard cardioid pickup pattern. It is a recording microphone only, it has no headphone output. It does include podcasting/audio editing software in the box (Tracktion) plus there are ASIO drivers available for windows to help reduce latency when recording. This mic only comes with a swivel stand mount so you will need to purchase a stand. It has a ruler-flat frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz and according to the Behringer site it can handle extreme dynamics, all the way up to 136 dB. It is easy to connect to any computer using the standard USB lead. I found the recording quality of the Behringer mic was good, but it was very quiet and I had to really turn up the levels and get close to the mic to get anything like a decent signal. If you want to know what any of the technical terms related to microphones mean, then you might want to look at this page where I have explained in detail what about microphone spec sheets and the jargon you might find here: http://bit.ly/21NET6g I hope this video and my web resources help you to choose the ideal budget mini USB microphone for you.

Basil Fawlty is back. 35 years after he last prowled the Reception area of Fawlty Towers, John Cleese’s legendary comedy creation has returned to our screens for Specsavers. In Fawlty Car, it’s clear the present-day Basil hasn’t lost his notorious ability to self-destruct spectacularly when events conspire against him. Throw in a should’ve gone to Specsavers twist (Fawlty eyesight?) and you have an irresistible comedy cocktail leading to inevitably calamitous results.
