Logitech SNOWBALL ICE Repair

The SNOWBALL ICE is a compact USB plug-and-play condenser microphone designed for streaming, podcasting, and voice recording. It offers a cardioid pickup pattern optimized for single-person vocal capture and straightforward computer compatibility without extra drivers. The unit uses durable materials — a metal grille over the capsule and a weighted base — for stable desktop use. Key features include USB bus power, simple setup, and broad Windows/macOS support.

The Logitech SNOWBALL ICE can be identified by the model number (M/N A00145). The model label is on the housing and the USB cable connects at the rear/base. This label lists the model (M/N), part (P/N), and serial (S/N) numbers.

Diagnose by checking OS input selection and levels, swapping USB ports and cable, testing the microphone on another computer, and inspecting the USB connector and cable for physical damage.
