![]() ![]() The Ember's off-axis rejection is also very good once you get past 90 degrees off-axis, at which point there's already 12.8dB of rejection. An output impedance of 40Ω is specified, which is ideally suited to typical mic preamp input impedances. We're told that its sensitivity is 12mV/Pa and that the maximum SPL before significant distortion sets in is 132dB. The self-noise figure is 19dB (A‑weighted), which is more than quiet enough for its intended close-miking applications. We're told that the frequency response is 38Hz to 20kHz (☓dB) but the manual has no frequency response graph to show whether or not the mic has any presence peak. There are no pad or low-frequency roll-off switches - while they're desirable features, their omission isn't critical and obviously helps keep the cost down. Still, for vocals or close speech a pop shield is recommended, and if floor vibrations are an issue you might want to look at a shockmount (such as the Blue S3) rather than the included rigid stand adaptor. ![]() I prefer this arrangement, but mention it here for clarity since I've seen some forum posts criticising the Ember for being a proper 'grown-up' studio microphone rather than a USB mic!Īlthough the Ember is inexpensive, it exudes a clean sound quality and offers excellent off-axis rejection. While most recording enthusiasts will be familiar with the analogue XLR connection, podcasters will want to note that there isn't a USB connection - you will need an audio interface with an XLR mic input that can provide standard 48V phantom power, and to provide your own XLR mic cable. Housed in a very modern-looking metal enclosure, it measures just 219 x 38.26 x 31.91mm, feels reassuringly solid, weighing in at 0.38kg, and ships in a foam-lined cardboard box (there's no storage pouch included). ![]() And lastly, it gives a personal touch to each mug and the owner using it.Designed with both podcasters and home-studio owners on tighter budgets in mind, Blue's Ember is a transformerless, fixed‑cardioid‑response, side-address, back-electret capacitor microphone. It also allows the user to associate their specific temperature to their color, so they don't accidentally drink out of a mug that is not set to their perfect temperature. We've seen that many people have multiple mugs in their household and being able to pick up the empty mug and or press the power button to see that it is their custom color helps our coffee/tea drinkers know which mug is theirs. Ĭustom LED Color: Primarily, the Custom LED is there to know which Ember Mug belongs to who. If you're seeing any LED lights or sequence of LED lights other than the ones listed, please send a short video to. SOLID BLUE - When a user selects to update the Ember's firmware via the Ember App, the Ember will show a solid blue light while it is updating the firmwareīLINKING YELLOW GREEN - After pressing the power button for about 8-10 seconds, the Ember will flash yellow to indicate it is being reset. After the Ember's power button is pressed for 5-7 seconds, the Ember will pulse blue to indicate it is in pair mode. SOLID WHITE - Target temperature has been reached and the beverage is ready to be enjoyed! PULSING WHITE - Once hot liquids are poured in the Ember, the Ember will pulse white as it works to reach your set temperature. PULSING RED - Ember is charging on the plugged in charging coaster (Ember must be empty) SOLID RED - Ember has low battery and will be unable to maintain the set temperature. Attached you'll find a list of what each LED color means if displayed on the Ember Mug. ![]()
