Microphone Olympics Medalists Announced

Jump to Comments

Once again DT, you made this contest a hit. We should also thank Blue Microphones and The Joint Committee for sponsoring the contest and believing in the DT movement. Anyway, we had so many dope entries that after the winners, I will let you know all of the finalists/honorable mentions and those emcees will get prizes too, including a badge for your profile. First, the medalists…

For the male contest, the medalists are:

Gold (Blue Baby Bottle) - Stormin’ Norm. What can we say, this track stood out from the pack. Three of the four judges had it ranked #1. http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110975

Silver (Blue Snowball) - Hubus. Besides the skills, you can hear how much it means to him to be emceeing. http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110393

Bronze (Blue Snowflake) - LesBlesd. Both of his tracks deserve mention. The one with the newscopter was classic and the way he threw in rhymes while playing the part of the newscaster put a fresh spin on the contest. http://www.dopetracks.com/track/109497

For the female contest, the medalists are:

Gold (Blue Baby Bottle) - Sexy Shay - The combination of hip-hop and r&b work really well here. We were expecting to hear a nice r&b track, but Shay came through with an amazing overall track. http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110971

Silver (Blue Snowball) - Jay Cee Pretty - Makes the most of the DT recorder. http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110996

Bronze (Blue Snowflake) - Chi Girl 22 - Last minute entry, she brought the heat. http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110988

Also, there were several finalists and honorable mentions. Finalists include Momo Smitt, Nicatien, Proph Murph, SilvaTung, Krazy Flo, Drinkinstein, Kawana and Joystar. You will all receive a DT poster signed by Chali 2na. Honorable mentions include Prof, Don Da Dopeman, Mikie da grip BBC, 12 gage, KoKoKuMa, nycz most fly, word of mouth and dim. You will all receive a copy of the Dopetracks All-Stars Mixtape Volume One. Also, Jacino had a mentionable track, but unfortunately it was past the deadline.

  • [...] Microphone Olympics Medalists Announced [...]

  • Just want to say thanks to the sponsors & DT for doing the contest…I actually had planned on doing an r&b track but figured I add a verse to it which did work really well…props to all the other winners & finalists in the competition. Hey Blue, send it on home!!! Cant wait for the next contest!!!

  • ahahahahahahahahahah
    what the fuck ever!
    congrats to the winners but honestly what the fuck once again dope points prevail as the cause for the winnings..and dont tell me its wrong…did the judges listen to everyone on the damn sites entraints? or only a select few??? bullshit once agian

  • Dopetracks Who Is that “Fuck You” Person? Saying all the bullshit above about losing or what ever he calls it.. but put em in the open.. WHO is it? I know ya’ll can grab his ip, PINK can do anything lol

  • ^^^THE DEFINITION OF A SORE LOSER^^ HA HA ITS SAD REALLY SOOOOORRREEE LOOOOOSSSEEERR!!

  • before I say my thanks & congrats- whoever said in that comment below that this contest was bullshit and that dope points prevail again THATS NOT TRUE i had 12 dope points as of yesterday and only a little over 60 plays because I literally put my entry in at 11:55 pm on the day the contest ended to go along with the theme of my song but that proves that dope points has NOTHING to do with it, if DT said it would not be a factor in the contest overview they are not gonna lie! that is why I never worried I knew they would listen and see I put my heart into my verses and creativity into my lyrics.

    Having said that THANK YOU DT,BLUE MICROPHONES & THE JOINT COMMITEE for making this happen, contests like these are why this site is so awesome you guys are constantly giving back to us and giving us a platform into which to showcase our talent and it is much appreciated. Congrats to everyone else that won, SHAY I was going for the Gold but you did your thing so I cant be mad atcha good job. I will say this though, now that I got this mic ITS A WRAP lol thanks again for all the love to eryone lookout for some new ish coming soon that wil be alot more clear! one..

  • I can guarantee we listened to every entry and points had nothing to do with the winners/finalists/honorable mentions. I don’t why you’d think otherwise… check the #’s.

  • YO SHUT THE FUCK UP BUDDY!”fuck you” EVERYBODY PUT IN THEIR WORK AND LEFT WITH WHAT THEY DESERVED! AND DT OBVIOUSLY LISTENED TO ALL THE TRACKS, they had like a month or so to do it. I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY WHO GOT WHAT! STORM WAS ON TOPIC THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE TRACK, HUBUS REALLY BROUGHT THAT FIRE AND BLESD WAS FITTIN TO TAKE SUMN HOME FROM THE START. Thanks for the DOPE ASS COMPETITION DT! Next one is gonna be even better.

  • Itz OK DT I aint givin up!! Ima just come harder!! Thanx 4 tha Oppurtune Folkz an TJC 4 tha ill beats!! Im not sure if I get tha poster an a mixtape, or what? But let me know what I need 2 do 2 get a xxxl shirt 2 mobb!! HAHA I kno u hooked me up once but shirt be shrinkin! Can i buy 1??? let me know GOOSE!! CONGRATZ 2 ALL 6IX WINNERS……Put them mics 2 GOOD USE

  • I had been thinking of whether to say anything, pretty much all day, and the previous night.

    All I could say yesterday was, “I see” because I was so in shock from the results.

    I’m not going to go on like “fuck you” did, I don’t think dope points made the mark, but since my stuff is getting overlooked anyway, then it doesn’t matter if people think I am a sore loser too for commenting.

    But not everyone got what they deserved. I know people will normally feel like they got a raw deal when they don’t get notice for their work, but I feel I got the track to back it up.

    I listened to all the tracks that got notice, and they are all good, *THEY ARE ALL GOOD*
    But no way did my track fall below what they did, based on the criteria.

    No way. Stormin normin always does good stuff, and sexy shay did several creative vocal harmonies, like I did.
    Yeah, like I did. The others, what they did was good, but not better then what I did.
    I don’t care about the prizes, they can have the prizes, but to not even get acknowledged?

    I can’t believe my track was listened to carefully and then discarded.
    http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110444
    The comments on it had all been, that they liked it, even competing contestants.

    I know it is not hip hoppy happy,it is metaphysical, it was well done, it was creative and I utilized all the melodies in the High Jump beat.
    I do alternative, metaphysical stuff.

    So I am no even going to bother with these contests if they are done like THIS.

    Nyaituppi

  • got tha honorable mention

    hit me up show me love and i got you bak

    http://www.dopetracks.com/track/110973

    HUBUS THE MENACE
    DOPESPOT/PHATMOB ENTERTAINMENT
    CAT5 WEEK ONE WINNER YEAH ME!!!
    SEE YALL IN THE FINALS!!!

  • I am usually objective enough to say, I did’t do this as well as others.
    When I started here, I did that alot and deleted most of my stuff from then.

    I would hear Pius J, gripmane, Kastor, and i think stomin normin was here then, and say, yeah, that is pro, that is superior to what I had done.

    I would like to hear Pius, some more around here, but anyway, the stuff I do lately, and this track, I seem to get a few really genuine likes comments, I mean you can tell when someone really likes what you did, over someone looking to swap dope points. And those count more then dope points.
    My music, like blues or a track from RZA, it is not happy, but people that hear, it, it makes them feel happy, it makes me happy to hear stuff like that. It gives me power.

    But I know the majority are into light hip hop that makes them feel good, so my stuff routinely gets bypassed by the majority, and I don’t promote; send links to inboxs.

    That should not matter though for a judges contest, they got to overlook the majority consensus and hear each track! if they have to listen to each one ten times to hear it as it is, and not compare it to their popular happy hip hop, then otherwise it isn’t fair judging.

    It is not even my credit, the track just made itself and there is alot of stuff going on, as goose said, check the #’s. Maybe they should have.
    Because there is no way!

  • Why kiss their ass? Fuck them.

  • Hubus, your the George Bush of this contest.
    You must have stole that election.
    Because that is happy hop. LOL.
    Enjoy your mic

  • Because there is also such a thing as sour winners. I don’t see any of the other winners talking shit on those who feel they have been snuffed.
    We have a right to say when something isn’t fair.
    I suspect it is because your a bit insecure about your music, and were as stunned as I was, when you won.

  • true that i agree…i feel bad though for my bitterness but my bitterness is onyl because of the neglect i feel towards my muscic and the capacity of work that goes into it!!! so yea your right i agree!!!

  • HUBUS THE DREAM-SNATCHA

  • AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH…………………………………
    oh my god i havent laughed so fucking hard in my entire fucking life…ummmmmmmmm hubus buddy i’m on multiple websites, i got fans and i drop hot shit…i dont care if i sound like a little kid least i have some balls to say something…and i’m not dissing you nor any of the other winnres..for you to take any offence to what i said honeestly shows that i’ve won!!!! when you get angry at peoples freedom of speech and what there entitled to say which is there opinion then you become the one in the wrong bud bud!…so thanks for proving mytheory correct i win…you loose YAY!!! you just made yourself a total douche lmfao!!!!!….and for your record i “NEVER” write shit so understand why i’d be mad i’m one of the only legit freestylists on this website..i write a small bit,but 90% of my tracks i ever drop is freestyle! only a few writtens……and fo everyones information who i am is of know concern to anyone…..i’m happy for the winners even the ones who are bitching because i have a mind and an opinion and speaking what i think…like nyap said i aint goin kiss your ass cause you won fuck that i dont kiss noones ass EVER! so yea whatver……btw your talkin shit to the king of grime….thee KING!

  • Actually this doesn’t matter, it is an illusion, the idea of a contest, there is no way it could come out fair, because everyone has their own style, different bodies. That can’t be judged, one from another, as long as they do the track well. And most of them did.
    I don’t know why I would get caught up in thinking it did matter. My bad.
    I can’t fault Hubus for being a kiss ass, sour winner, company man, begging for a mic, when I am getting upset by the system.
    I am not retracting what I said on how it was likely judged, which is listen to each song once, back to back, not giving enough time to hear, but that doesn’t matter, because, if they were done well, then they all deserved mention.

    The biggest fLAW OF THESE, is someone has to lose for someone to win, and I don’t want to be on either side then,

    So I won’t fuck with them, I will just do my stuff well, and as it is in my profile.

  • My FreeStyles ARE HOT WITH ONLY 3 DOPES! BUT YEA I DONT CARE… IM ON AIR & GETTIN PLAY! YALL GET READY IM ABOUT 2 BLOW! & YEA MAKE IT A REAL TRACK VS TRACK BATTLE THEN I REALLY SHOW UP BUT I SEE YALL! & KEEP AT IT ONLY TIME WILL TELL! HOLLA!!!!

    September 13th, 2008 at 5:48 am

    “btw i aint a kid im 35″ who cares not me, stop acting like a kid
    nuff said!

  • hubus stop lying you know you loveme…you be going home dreaming about me and shit…like oh johnny rottenfuck love me AHAAHAHA silly faggot dicks are for chicks

  • congrats yall, youve officialy pimped your music for a mic and a crappy one at that…Personaly i would rather give my music away then to be given a bullshit mic as a gift.

  • well u didnt get shit for your music louder did u so u cant complain
    n dont say u didnt enter cos u did
    u jus a pure hatin faggot
    who really jus needs to fuck off
    cos no one forcing u to keep loggin in to this site
    that u hate so much NOBHEAD

  • Louder: “congrats yall, youve officialy pimped your music for a mic and a crappy one at that…Personaly i would rather give my music away then to be given a bullshit mic as a gift.”

    HAHAHA!! That’s the most retarded thing I ever heard. He would rather give his music away for free than get a $500 dollar microphone? What does that say? Either Louder is autistic - he surely isn’t ‘artistic’ and that shows a lot of love on his mother’s part for still having him Or B) Louder’s music is so bad he feels guilty about getting anything in return for it…

    Which one you think applies? There’s always C, Louder is getting frustrated that no one is showing him luv…

  • pure hatin faggot?

    And Kristi thought you guys could joke about being gay. But I knew alot of you are homophobics and really think it is wrong.

    I don’t get it, you guys talk about haters, and you’re full of luv?

    I don’t see that, you certainly don’t approve of differing views.

    Hubus, use your own name, not louder’s.

  • Everyone.. We need to take it down a notch. This is a competition and like Nyatuppi said.. the system is flawed because there will be 5 or 6 winners and a lot of people who lose. We’re all allowed to vent as well. Just so long as the venting does not get personal or bigoted. Let’s keep the best thing about DT the collaborations.. not the competitions.

    Peace

  • ok i aint speakin on this no more BUT
    jus let me say when I call someone a faggot its got nothin
    to do with em being gay
    my best friend recently came out as gay n he aint a faggot
    to me a faggot is a pussy ass who talks shit bout evryone else
    n cant back up his words wether that relates to chattin shit on here
    and not being able to bring a better track out than those that one
    or wether its someone chattin shit in the street to me then running away
    when i get close enough to crack em in the jaw
    so in no way are my views homophobic or biggoted like
    i said my best friend is gay n he aint no faggot

  • There seems to be some posts missing.

  • Oh, it is my browser setting.

    Silvatung.

    louder does some good shit, and you would hear that if you didn’t let your offense meter take over.

    Like I can say Hubus does good shit, even though he is a sour winner and company kiss ass man, and I don’t know what he said in his last post.

    There is louder and there is the person that posted as Louder, which is not exactly the same. And no password required.

    But he was just making the point that you guys jumped through the hoops for a mic, by submitting to a premeditated theme of “My microphone”

    I did too. And I won’t do it again, because I don’t like the idea of winning so another can lose.

  • this is hillarious, this gay little mumbling harry potter sounding bitch is mad cause hes a broke nothing and he wants that cheap bullshit little mic and hes mad cause he didnt win.. Lets be perfectly clear..I did not enter this bullshit contest and dont want some gay little bullshit mic.

    I rock a sure ksm32 cardoid condenser microphone with 48 volts of phantom power. The same mic they use on The Tonight show with jay leno. One of the best mics there is for any price.

    Nyaituppi thank your for your kind words i can see that your mind isnt clouded by jealousy and envy like all the other lames who are mad cause they werent borne with tallent. I see lots of people ridding the DT dick all the time..

    Let me ask all of you, what the fuck did dopetracks do for you? Take your music for free so they can exploit it in any way they see fit. Even the niggas on the mixtape, what the fuck did they get?

    Looks to me like they got lodging food and stoned for DT to get to record them and try to profit from them. We all want to be herd and DT takes advantage of that.

  • Hubus the dream snatcha
    September 17th, 2008 at 7:14 pm

  • I didn’t need a snowflake or a snowball to do this.

  • a snowball is when a chick blows u then spits the cum in your mouth with a french kiss. who would want one of those…well obiously some of you…you did compete for one.

  • I got a mic, it is actually a computer talking mic, not a singing mic, which is why it is so sensitive to Ps and breath. I have a regular vocal mic, but it actually doesn’t sound as good as the talking one.
    But I didn’t mind it on that track.
    I would like to get a high quality mic, but not through these circus contests.

    Hubus got the snowball, and probably gave one to get it too.

  • A Blue Snow Ball
    Hahaha!

  • yes hubus is like that, when i was new here he tried to blow me but when i didnt defend him when he was bullied by westex he spit my dick out. now he tries to act tuff to me on yahoo messenger but he just comes off over emotional, hes funny though deep down i like homo hubus and if i was gay lke him i would totaly let him blow me. But still no snowball for me…lmao !!!

  • for u hungry mcs with brains…

    DIY: Condenser microphone

  • AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ok that shits mad funny…snowballing for a snowball mic!!!! kinda glad i didnt win now lmfao!!!!……whens the next competition??????????cause i’m a coming full force this pitbull ready to bite grrrr!!!!!

  • I see too mutch enthusiasm, but lets not be a suckered yall. Dt says we having a battle then they tell usa to rap about Bikes? Another battle and we rapping about mics? Yall is seriously pupets to promotional gimmics.

    And seriously who won the hayabusa? Was it just a fraud?

  • The next competiton is blue themed to, but not blue mic, but blue smurf blow up doll.
    http://bluebuddies.com/gallery/Classic_Smurf_Toys/jpg/Smurfs_Toy_Blow_Up_Doll.jpg

    The track theme has to be, “what you would do with a blue smurf blow up doll”

    The other requirement is you have to be taller than the smurf doll, so anyone like goose is out on that.

  • How did this convo move to talking about a mic to talking about some bitch dat dont know how to swollow??…..If you dont like theses comps just dont pay any attention to it right???…..I think if you would of won your opinion would be changed….

    Now WHOS THE REAL HOMO’S LOL
    LOUDER KILL YOSELF WIT ALL THAT YAHOO SHIT YOU ARE NOT A FACTOR NOBODY CARES WHO YOU ARE OR WHAT YOU DO YOU GAT DAMN PINK WORM GO STAND IN THE SUN AND DRY OUT!!!!
    AND AS FAR AS DISSES EVERY LAST ONE OF MY DISSES HIT FRONT PAGE AND MAXED OUT AT TOP SPOT PUSSY!!!
    SO TALK WHAT YOU KNOW AND KNOW WHAT YOU TALK!!!!!
    BUS!

  • Really, this contest, there are no male and female categories.

    Because I can only afford to get one smurf blow up doll.

    So get those noggins bobbing on what you would do with a blue smurf blow up doll.

    And the winner will get one.

    The losers will have to hang out with Hubus for a day.

  • But here is some !!!REAL TALK!!!
    I just saw this movie [dvd] called; “The art of 16 Bars”

    I recommend people here see it, because it will remind people of some history and values.

    One of the points they make right away, rappers like KRS One, Kanye west, Method man, RZA, Busta Rhymes, Q-tip, Nas, Redman, and more is, how back in the eighties rappers were pretty much required to be original and unique.
    You couldn’t really follow some collective idea of what is dope, or bite on their ideas and expect people to respect your music.

    I know my stuff is unique, and people tell me it is, and even that I don’t belong here.
    Which is why I should be here.
    But that only says that this place is often catering to mainstream dope.

    Why not do a contest where there is no prices, just a contest where people could do the most original track they could do.

    Forget about the hip hop formulas and do anything they want.

  • But we can still have the blue blow up doll contest.

  • Like i said, WHO WON THE BUSA? WERE WE ALL SUCKERED? And hubus why u pumpin ya chest up little guy?
    poor lil hubus is gettin over emotional again. I could picture hubus crying mad with pellet gun sayin to himself “imma smoke theese niggas fuck theese niggas”.

    Calm down hubus its just a fuckin website little buddy.

  • funny that i makea post about the busa contest bein a sham then they post a winner. and who the fuck is Jpigg, he came from nowere and got lots of votes, i smell a fuckin RAT.

  • That was totally generic and simple and typical dope.

    Apparently why he won.

    He actually wrote about the HayaBusa 2008, like they said.

    In this blue mic contest, I did not, of course, actually write about a mic, that is way too trivial, I just named it, ‘My eyes are my mic’

    That is another way these contests are not fair, they pander to conformity and popular triviality,

    I always wanted to get a bike and flaunt it
    Gotta go fast but never crash on it
    Put some cash on it / then I mash on it
    Fly when I ride and I super gas on it
    The Hayabusa…2008
    They said they couldn’t make it better and they made it great
    So they raised the stakes, so there’s no mistake
    Gotta get one and dip son why would you wait?

    Verse 1
    GSX 1 3 0 0 R….also known as the Hayabusa bike ya’ll
    From Suzuki with a brand new kick
    A brand new Busa w/ some Japanese script
    Engine size increased….1340 cc
    A lil more power so it’s ridin like a beast
    It’s tearin up the streets
    Just like ya boy J. P.
    Gotta spend a lil cash nothin comes free
    and performance ain’t cheap
    New exhaust system, redesigned body so there ain’t much missin
    If you love to race then you don’t like to chase
    Why come in second you can come in first place
    MAke you look good when you pickin up a date
    Hop on the back and put your hands around the waist
    0-60 in 2.77 seconds
    Ride the open road when it beckons

    CHORUS

    Verse 2
    No competition
    Glides when it rides
    The 2008 Hayabusa that’s right
    Added new technology
    the drive mode selector
    3 different options which makes performance better
    Pick what you like
    Maybe like to tour
    Switch to the wide open high speed raw
    Top speed 185 what the stock breed
    More torque make you wanna stop then breathe
    There’s the orange with the black
    The gray with the black, the white with the silver if you don’t like that
    Try my favorite…The blue with the black
    Like a bruise but I’m cool on the bike if I cruise
    The best is solo, never comes in two’s
    And the Hayabusa’s number one breakin all the rules
    The brand new model with some brand new tools
    Anybody that passes on this is a fool

    CHORUS

  • I got to say baby blue bottle snowflake or snowball all sound mad homo to me Why didyalls play yaself rappin for that shit? Next thing u know DT is gonna get Promo money from tampax and yall gone be rappin about tampons.

    Why dont u dudes quit rappin and write jingles for advertising firms. THEY PAY ALOT BETTER !

    September 23rd, 2008 at 3:20 pm

    Thats whats up STORM!!! I STILL HAVENT RECORDED ON MINES YET! YOU GOT ME AMPED UP TO GO AHEAD AND USE IT!

  • Norm you say it has a natural reverb? Thats just a bad pickup pattern in a room with bad accoustics.
    A Studio Quality 48 Volt phantom powered condenser microphone uses whats called a cardiod pickup pattern to eliminate that “reverb” Thanks for telling us allhow bad that mic sucks.

    But on another note congrats on your victory. Oh and Norm you asked me to do a colabo, then never got back to me. What the deal is?

  • lmao, i just realized that they actualy sell that baby blue bottle mic for 500 bucks. For that kinda price it could be decent. For my money though i wouldnt buy no baby blue bottle mic, it looks lame and the name sounds gay. Could be good quality but bad marketing. I recomend sennheiser or shure microphones to anyone lookin for a real deal mic.

  • Okay louder now your starting to sound like a hater,Why are you still on the mic situation?
    You didnt win it so leave it alone bud,While your spending your money on a microphone 6-DT members just got one a piece for *FREE* Go write a song man dont b a hater all your life!

  • hey dr. doom, i say what the fuck i want. I dont need your aproval so do everyone a favor and shut the fuck up. Get some fuckin skills then u can join in the grown folk convo. I was simply stating first and foremost that I didnt ever realise that the bottle mic sells for 500 bucks. I was actualy stating that the worth of the microphone was far greater then i thought.

    I was also taking thetime to educate others that a quality mic isnt supposed to sound like that, what a polar pattern is and how it relates to sound quality. Also how there are MUTCH better companys making microphones who have been known for their quaility for over 35 fucking years.

    So yea like i said Dr Doom, shut your fuckin muoth when grown folks is talkin.

    I see lots of opinions from lots of niggas i could give to shits what they think. Truth be told only peeps i see on this forum thread with Real Skills is me and norm his skills is on point and his productions is always quality. And although i dont respect them hubus and dakid stripes are DECENT.

    And although i think Nyaituppi’s music sucks, i respect the man cause he seems like a good down to earth person who isnt afraid to be himself.

    Anyone else can suck a bag of dicks and STFU.

    Oh and everyone go peep my newpics, i got a new luger p95 so i thought i would take a pic with it and my smith and wesson 40 cal. Tell me that shit aint gangsta “MY NIGGAZ”. lmao

  • Anybody can buy a pistol but the point of buying one is to use it, We know you want do that “MY WIGGA”

  • You think we can rise above this trend that if someone has diverging views, that they are a hater?
    It is dismissive and collective group bullshit.

    Hater, Hataz!!!
    It is just constantly used as a shortcut to hearing another viewpoint.

    If you can see what kind of person someone is, then you can understand why they saw what they do, and not get offended.

    Like an example, Louder saying my music sucks, I can’t get offended by that, because I know he is into another vibe, the gangsta flow.

    I don’t like that style, because it is too easy to do. And I will do one just to show you all. I did have some on here before, but I deleted them all.

    It is like pop to jazz. It is much more commercial friendly then my stuff. The gangsta flow got so played out in the nineties, but instead of people being original they just went to the next trend.

    Which is this dance, happy hop geared towards selling products.

    DT does this shit to get sponsors. It is another business like proffesional sports.

    yo someone comin on here usin ma name and shithonestly what the fuck is up with that reveal yourself fuckface

    aint cool to jack someones id then talk shit with it

  • It was the nineties when rap began to be seen as marketable, which followed the obvious use in promoting products.

    So with the blue mics. Why is it that people haven’t really used them? The ones that received them, maybe a couple of them had used them once or so. What is up with that?

    I can barely talk people into using their blue mics, afraid they might sound like shit?

    I was looking at a rating for these mics and it states there are some flaws, even design flaws with them, other than how goofy they look.

    http://reviews.cnet.com/microphones/blue-microphones-snowflake-usb/4864-6469_7-33131110-1.html

    Cons:
    (1) Bug. Whenever you put the computer in sleep and later wake it up, the USB Snowflake will not come out of the sleep. You will have to unplug the microphone and replug it to make it work. I’m not entirely sure whether this is a problem with the microphone or the computer operating system, but I am familiar with external USB devices enough to know that this shouldn’t be the case. I use Vista. Other external USB devices all work fine in this respect. So I believe this is a bug. Regardless, this is quite annoying because I put my laptop in sleep frequently.

    (2) Sound quality is not as good as professional microphones used with a good sound card. The sound quality is right in the middle between microphones built in laptop computers and a decent headset, a handheld or studio microphone. I say this based on testing with actual recordings, not speculation. While the Snowflake is noticeably better than a built-in microphone, it is noticeably inferior to a good handheld microphone or a quality headset (such as those used in wireless microphone sets).

    (3) Noise level is higher than a good handheld microphone or good headset. Because of the distant placement in relation to the user, this microphone is clearly not as clean as the high-quality microphones I’ve used (and still use with my desktop system). This may not be a problem for noncritical recordings, but it is something to be remembered. Personally, I want to use it for voice recognition, which I believe is a much more challenging environment than casual recording. Based on my short experience, I am quite satisfied, but not without a bit of reservation because of the noise. I just hope the noise does not significantly impact the recognition accuracy. So far, it does not appear to be a series problem, but the higher noise level is obvious and I am concerned.

    (4) Picks up too much ambient noise. This microphone is supposed to be unidirectional, but its ability to reject ambient noises is clearly not as good as handhold microphones I’ve used. The Snowflake is really meant to be used in a relatively quiet room. I believe this microphone was designed with conflicting goals which forced compromises. When it comes to microphones, there are two very different types of uses. The first type is the recording of a single source from a single direction (such as an individual speaker’s voice), the second type is the recording of multiple sources from multiple directions (such as a conference room). These two types need very different types of microphones, namely unidirectional for the former and omnidirectional for the latter. I feel the maker of the Snowflake would like to have both type of buyers with a single design. Not a good idea. I think they should give an option of two different types to the Snowflake, either using a modular system or using a switch.

    (5) The joint of the microphone head is very loose, hardly able to hold a position firm. This makes you nervous all the time, and in fact do cause frequent adjustments. This is clearly an overlook and must be improved in the next iteration of this product (if there will be one). Nothing affects the user experience like unreliability.

    (6) There is no tightening nor adjustment mechanism for this thing to be clamped over the edge of the computer lid. It just loosely and barely hangs there. Not very stable, and easily falls off with any laptop movement. I eventually decided to place the microphone aside the computer. This works well (but does require a support surface), because thankfully the metal case can be flipped over to become a standing frame. Very convenient.

    (7) I wish they made the microphone head (the ball part) completely detachable from the box so that one can comfortably hold it in hand if needs to (for example, if you really need a low noise level for recording). With the current design, if you want to handhold this microphone, you can only hold it with the entire metal frame, which is not only heavy but too edgy and uncomfortable to hold for very long.

    (8) I feel the whole thing is a bit too heavy for its intended type of use. Is it possible to make it lighter without sacrificing the integrity? I don’t know. I kind of like the feel of its metal make, but still think lighter would be better.

  • I got a samson R31S for $40 dollars and i bet it sounds better than a blue mic, I already have done a few songs on it, but I am waiting for people to come back on them with their blue mics.

    I am a musician, we can’t sleep on this stuff, let’s make music!
