    • Very good upgrade from Yeti
I'm not an audiophile or even an advanced audio user. I had been using a Yeti to record voice audio for recordings computer software demonstrations I record for you tube and corporate posts. The Yeti works fine, especially when you post process it. But I wanted to improve my audio for live conference calls. So I did my normal 'watch a thousand online reviews' and try to decide what I wanted. A bit of background on my selecting an XLR mic. With a USB mic like the Yeti, you can't run it through any external processing before it hits the computer. So you get what's in the mic, and that's it. The challenge with condenser mics is that they pick up sounds in your neighbor's house. So I've always run a noise gate filter on post production of Yeti recordings. When I first started thinking about the Yeti for conference calls, I tried an opensource piece of software that put itself in the audio path on Windows, and provided noise gate, eq, and more. The problem with that was it took so much of system resources, my computer couldn't keep up with the audio and web conference (i.e. all glitchy). And it wasn't very stable either. So that's when I looked at external hardware that could be used to apply filters like a noise gate. That led me into XLR mics. I won't go into my journey to find the right piece of hardware for the external noise gate to usb into PC. That's a long one, and one I haven't been too happy with so far. I'm leaning back toward just using a very simple XLR to usb interface until things advance in the current other options. So that said, this mic does really well with its cardioid pattern, and I am able to adjust the gain t where ambient noise doesn't really become irritatingly apparent. But, this also requires the mic to be 2 to 4 inches from my mouth. That's ok for the most part, since it's so slim, it doesn't really distract when in frame with a video web conference. I had purchased a shock mount for it and that was quite a bit of hardware in the way of the video frame. But I found I don't need it. When on a boom from a tripod, with the included hard mount, I don't get any reverb or noise transfer into the mic I did with the Yeti and absolutely used a shock mount for that. So that was a pleasant surprise. No shock mount = less crap on screen. Second thing that surprised me was that it seems to have an integrated pop filter. You have to practically smack your lips on the screen before you'd need a pop filter. So again, slim mic, not taking up frame real estate. I believe this is why they add streamer application to their marketing for it. And I'd agree. Now, like any mic you can crank the gain and keep it out of frame, but with this type of mic, you will be needing a very specialized recording booth. The recommended use for and mic like this is 2 to 4 inches from your mouth. I've seen a lot of reviews of this mic where they say 'oh, the included mount is substandard and you NEED a shock mount', and the same sort of thing about a pop filter. To that, I say 'no, you don't' The mic generates a great reproduction of my voice and I am pleased with it right out of gate, with no processing. All that said, I've now caught the bug to improve everything, and have added some dedicated lighting to improve my video. While it's not impossible to light and keep this very slim mic in a spot that is acceptable without throwing a shadow on your face, I've decided to try out a hyper cardioid pencil mic that I can keep just out of frame. But I will definitely have this for my go to mic when doing voice over for my recordings. I'm sure I will still do post on it, but is light years ahead of the Yeti in voice quality, so way less post and better overall results. For $100 (plus any additional XLR stuff you need if you're just leaving USB mode) I think it's money well spent. I like this thing a lot and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to someone with similar needs as me. ... show more

    • Its great but.... not long lasting
This microphone does pick up sound very well and it is quality. The appearance is awesome but... it's a condenser microphone. Condenser microphones don't last as long as expected well in my experience. I purchased the microphone in early 2022 and 6 months later I started hearing this buzzing noise it was an annoying sound but anyway I had a warranty. I explained my issue to the manufacturer and provided a sample of the noise. They sent me a new one and not even 2 months I started hearing a similar buzzing noise... Mind you I got my audio interface replaced and purchased new cables before getting a mic replacement. ... show more

    • Great Mic
My previous mic was a 60$ condenser mic kit that came with all the goodies and that finally kicked the bucket after 2 years of jerry-rigging with ductape and determination to be cheap. I finally decided to get an actual condenser mic and found myself buying the Ember. And it was a great choice. The out of the box quality is unbeatable for the price and the only thing it is missing is a pop filter but even that isn't too required. Amazing mic, couldn't recommend more. Just don't falling into the trap of going full Blue branding and get the Compass arm. ... show more

    • Comparable to AT2020
I use this for playing music with others on-line via Jamkazam with a Motu M2 interface. Had been using an Audio-Technica AT2020. The two microphones are very similar in specs and sound quality, although the Blue Ember frequency response has a little drop off in the bass. Nonetheless, the Ember made my flute sound "warmer" than the AT2020. I like that, and really like the design of the Blue Ember. My only complaint is the mike stand adapter which comes with the Blue Ember. It does not permit full flexibility; had to use a boom arm as it would really only stand straight up on a desk stand. Both mikes are real values at their $100 price. ... show more

    • Good value for the money... to a point
The Blue Ember condenser is an impressively quiet mic for it's $99 price tag, and generally doesn't need a lot of processing to sound good. As far as the microphone itself, I don't have much to complain about, especially considering my dislike for other Blue prosumer microphones such as the Yeti. The shape and low profile makes it easy to place in difficult positions. However, there are two major things to be aware of. 1: It needs a shock mount in the worst way. The shock mount that Blue recommends costs as much as the microphone itself. If you don't have a shock mount, don't put this mic on a stand placed on a desk, or that easily conducts sounds. It's too small to fit inside of your typical cheap shock mount. It will just fall right through. While there are other shocks that have similar threads, they are generally not long enough. I tried a few. I really wish Blue had included a shock mount in the box. Even a small clamp-style one would be better than the clip it comes with now. 2. A pop shield is absolutely necessary. I would use a pop shield with any mic anyway, but this is just something to remember. Now that you've spent $99 on a mic, $99 on a shock mount, and let's say $30 and up on a good pop shield, you've gone into the territory of other budget-friendly mics that are perhaps just as good, if not better, but come in kits with this stuff already. The price of the mic is great, but when you factor the rest in, there are many more options to choose from. So, at this point, the Ember's big selling point is probably it's profile, and the fact that it doesn't have the typical cheap Chinese condenser microphone sound. ... show more

    • Good Build, Bad Sound
The sound quality is what you’d expect from a usb mic, and the cardioid does a shot job of reducing noise behind the microphone- and yes it’s angled correctly. The main positive though is that the build quality is solid and it’s a beautiful looking mic, but it doesn’t matter that much when a usb mic sounds better. ... show more
