Blue Mics Debuts Nessie Adaptive USB Mic

Blue Microphones has announced Nessie (www.bluemic.com/Nessie), the solution for desktop recording of vocals, instruments, voiceovers and more. Nessie adapts in real time, applying professional studio processing, combined with a built-in pop filter and internal shockmount.

Nessie’s key features and internal processing are designed to combat the most common pitfalls of recording. The built-in pop filter and shockmount reduce harsh plosives and disruptive rumbling and vibrations, while the processing, including EQ, de-esser and level control, automatically smoothes and refines your audio in real time.

Nessie employs a single custom-tuned condenser capsule with a cardioid pattern. Its three recording modes are optimized for richer vocals, more detailed instruments or an option for raw audio for manual post-production editing. Nessie features a zero-latency headphone output for direct monitoring, while headphone volume and instant mute are located directly on the microphone. Nessie is plug-and-play compatible via USB with both PC and Mac with driverless installation. For mobile recording, connect to iPad using Apple’s camera adapters (30-pin to USB or Lighting to USB), sold separately.
