Today we rereview the Blue Snowball to answer if it is still worth it in 2021. It offers a nasally sound with bad off axis coloration on the cardioid mode, and a over boosted harsh top end on the omni directional polar pattern. The A/D conversion is limited to 16bit 44.1kHz and it offers no headphone jack for 0 latency monitoring or computer playback.
