Descrizione
It might not hail from a loch, but the Blue Nessie is definitely worth a cryptozoological quest! This condenser microphone with USB connector might just be the first ever to 'listen' to the incoming signal, which is ideal for quick podcast recordings or desktop applications, for instance, as it does some of the work for you. It also allows people with limited audio-technological knowledge to manage the recording.
Blue Nessie: efficient and complete
The exterior of the Nessie looks like the monster itself, or at least what we imagine it looks like. A pop filter and shock mount have been integrated into the housing, so that a clean recording can be achieved. Nessie's Auto Mode lets you choose from various presets that let you accurately manage your recordings. You can compare these presets with the auto focus on a camera - the device homes in on the target and adjusts its settings accordingly for the best result. You can choose from presets for vocals, instruments (bag pipes?) or clean, unedited recordings.
On-board audio and USB
The Nessie features a latency-free headphone output, so that you can enjoy a direct playback option. Volume control and mute button are provided on the housing of the microphone itself. Audio is processed at a sample frequency of 48 kHz (16 bits) and via USB the microphone can be connected to PC and Mac computers in a plug-and-play fashion. Via the camera adapter by Apple, you can also connect an iPad. The Nessie by Blue Microphones features monstrously good adaptive settings, that make quick recordings super easy!
