(London, UK – July 4, 2013) – Blue Microphones, a leading innovator in microphone technology and design, announces the availability of Nessie (www.bluemic.com/Nessie), the solution for fearless recording that instantly delivers studio-enhanced sound 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 to produce expertly finished sound, without the need for additional mixing or editing.  Nessie, MSRP £99 is available immediately in-store at Apple and online at Apple.com and will be coming soon to Amazon and Dixons and other authorised Blue retailers worldwide.

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

“We are excited to release Nessie and introduce people to fearless recording with this brand new category of adaptive USB microphones. Nessie not only captures the professional-quality recording you’ve come to know from Blue, but adds the next step of adaptive studio processing to automatically give you improved recordings,” said John Maier, CEO of Blue Microphones. “We understand that not everyone has the tools, time, or engineering know-how to get the best recording results. So we designed Nessie to expertly apply the most common, professional techniques instantly, allowing you to concentrate on creating, not recording.”

Nessie employs a single custom-tuned condenser capsule with a cardioid pattern. Nessie’s three flexible recording modes are optimised 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, which is critical for eliminating distracting delay, while headphone volume and instant mute are located directly on the microphone. For optimal positioning, Nessie’s head adjusts with serpentine flexibility. 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.

Nessie, MSRP £99, is available immediately in-store at Apple and online at Apple.com and will be coming soon to Amazon and Dixons and other authorised Blue retailers worldwide. For more information, visit www.bluemic.com/Nessie.
