Snowball Microphone has USB cable. I need to plug it into a mini plug.

What kind of adapter do I need to purchase in order to plug my snow ball microphone into a mini jack recorder.

Not possible, I'm afraid - a USB microphone contains it's own "soundcard" so can only be used with a computer.

Based on the comments of kittuskattus
I think you need some type of Mini USB extender to make your ball microphone more usable.

This 25 cm extender might do.

Hi brothertruffle880
I was thinking  if recording yourself talking is your main goal you can use your Snowball Microphone USB with windows 7. Windows 7 has an inbuilt sound recorder
