  • Abstract:  Nessie is certainly one of the most visually striking USB microphones on the market, yet its aesthetics aren't without functional purpose. Designed as a desktop cardioid condenser microphone with incorporated stand and a variety of useful physical feature...

  • If you need a microphone that works in a variety of settings that all involve a horizontal surface to set the mic on, Nessie has excellent sound quality at a very good price. This is a very good mic for someone who might be interested in recording with...

  • Sports a stylish look, Preprocessing makes it easier to record decent quality spoken word audio
  • Audio is captured too quietly, with a lack of onboard gain controls, Builtin pop filter really doesn't work
  • To its credit, Nessie's automatic EQ and other settings do work. Normally, when I record using the Blue Yeti, I need to post-process my audio with various filters to get the sound I'm after, particularly for voiceovers and podcasting. Nessie's captured a...

  • Cool design, great sound, acts as a complete audio package, sensibly priced
  • Adjustment arm is a little too easily moved
  • For us, the Blue Nessie has been perfect. If you're a videomaker, singer or podcaster, then we think it's going to be an elegant and sensibly-priced solution for you too. At £99, we think it offers a massive amount of functionality. If your PC has...
