In the world of streaming mics, there may be no more well-known company than Blue Microphones. If you’ve watched more than a handful of Twitch streams, you’ve likely seen their wildly popular and bullet-shaped Blue Yeti or the more recent Blue Yeti Nano. I’m reviewing the Blue Ember (See it at Amazon), which is a microphone also intended for streamers and gamers, but one that’s quite a departure in several ways. It’s small, thin, and purpose-driven with only a single recording pattern, but, most importantly, it drops USB support in favor of a more sophisticated XLR connection. At $99, is it worth becoming your next mic?
