Works well. It is slightly lighter than expected, but the quality of the sound is excellent.

Great USB audio interface! I also own the Shure X2U and they perform just about the same...I wish I would have known that before I spent way more on the X2U.
 
4 Star Rating  "Simple plug and play that just worked - period."2009-09-24

I bought the Blue Icicle because I had to quickly record some trumpet lines and I didn't have an interface. Well, actually, I did pick up an open box unit that didn't work because they couldn't provide me with the external power supply, so I took it back and got the Icicle as a quick fix that would get me where I needed to go in a timely manner.

Hardware: iMac, dual core 2.0 GHz processor and 4 GB or RAM. OS 10.5.8.
Software: Garage Band.
Mic: Shure SM57.

Pros. For recording trumpet with an SM57 it was perfect. Clear sound, low noise, LOTS of signal. With the gain a little over half way on the Icicle and about 58% in Garage Band I got hot horn lines with gain to spare. Any hotter and they would have started clipping, so it definitely gave enough signal to get the job done.

Cons. The gain knob has no dial or indicators for how far you have turned it - it has to be done by feel making it almost impossible to duplicate your settings exactly. This could be improved with a knob with an arrow and a marked dial so you can see where it's set. It also feels a bit cheap - it's lightweight and feels almost fragile. Treated with care it's fine, but I doubt it would take much abuse before it would break and I have been ultra careful with it because it feels so lightweight and cheap. I also used it as recommended in the accompanying literature and didn't plug it directly into the back of the mic - I used it with a mic cable.

For what I needed it was perfect - simple plug and play that got good sound into my computer, and it worked well in a pinch. I just wish it was a little higher quality in terms of construction. A bit heavier and a better dial for the analog gain, and I would have rated it a full 5 stars but as it is, I can at best give it 4.

Though this micpreamp has several weaknesses, I give this 5 stars because it's just perfect for what I do.

I've been finding ways to record vocal in convenient way with good quality. Everyone told me I'm suppose to get audio interface for good vocal recording, but audio interfaces always ended up with frustration.

I won't say long. Icicle preamp is better than any of built in preamp of audio interfaces I owned, including NI's Audio Kontrol 1, Edirol UA4FX, Fast Track Pro, and Tapco Link. It's even better than somewhat expensive M-Audio Tampa preamp.

Preamps in AK1 and TAMPA were pretty good, but Blue Icicle is a lot better than them in terms of gain and noise. Sound quality of Icicle is as good as those, if not, better. One might laugh at me saying this because of Icicle's price which almost is four times lower than those gears, but I am darn serious.

After seeing several reviews of Icicle, I was going to return this, but once I used it, I don't think I want to return it anymore.

This preamp is way beyond my expectation.

However, like I mentioned above, it has weaknesses so this might not be a solution for many people

1) it has no headphone jack for direct monitoring
2) no asio driver
3) only one input
4) does not look strong so always be careful

If you are a person like me who just to need to record vocal conveniently using easy software like cool edit or audacity, you won't regret.


Also, there are other usb micpreamp from CEntrance and Shure. I heard quality of theirs is better than Icicle. They also have asio driver and headphone jack for direct monitoring so you might also want to check them out too.


For those who want to listen to how this preamp sounds like,
I'll post songs recorded through this preamp with Nady's Spc 15 condenser mic (costs about 35 bucks) on discussion forum

Shipping: Ordered on a Sunday of Week 1. Placed in box on a Friday of Week 2. Received it Wednesday of Week 3. Whoever's responsible for shipping (Amazon or Blue) took their sweet time to drop it in this 8"x5" box.

Product: Currently testing the converter with a Shure PG58. Gain is incredibly low and a annoying tone when recording. I do believe the product is in working condition; too bad I have to figure out how to edit the hardware properly.

We've only had the Blue Icicle 1 week, but my daughter loves it, and is working with it every day.

How good is it ? My daughter is 18, and turned down $25,000 a year in scholarship money to Pepperdine's Music program as a coluratura soprano. Her voice is so perfectly re-produced using a Shure 57 and the Icicle, that I can not tell when she sings and when she plays it back through the computer, an off-the-shelf Dell, using a pair of $30 JBL computer speakers for sound.

The icicle is really good.

Now they can replace the old TV commercial, from "Is it live, or is it Memorex ?"
to "Is it live, or is it Blue ?"
