Blue Microphones - Yeti Nano USB Condenser Microphone

This is a great quality mic for work applications, voice over and podcasting. Bought it due to a new environment of working from home. Works well with Teams and Zoom.

The directional works great, the TV behind the Yeti does not come through at all. Just me speaking into the Yeti. Compact, yet great sound.

Sounds great. I can use this with my iPad Pro. I just needed to get a USB adapter so I could connect it.

Use for streaming twitch and picks up great. Has setting for unidirectional or omnidirectional.

Using in a large room for audio for video conferencing, so for all testing gives clear audio for this large area.

First hearing about the Nano I was completely unsure but willing to give it a shot since my Blue Snowball has lasted me many years. Right out of the box this thing is ready to go and feels incredibly sturdy in the hand + the stand design is pretty neat. This comes with some features I’d like to point out, the ring in the middle of the mic is not only a volume slider (twisting it left or right) but also used as a MUTE or UNMUTE button by a really easy press. On the back is a flat button that you only really have to touch to change between omnidirectional (just you) and multidirectional (you + however many other voices) audio input. The whole mic itself can be positioned to be either tilted forward so much that it’s literally upside down or just keep it straight up! Pros: Compact Great input for single person use Great input for multi person use Simple cable management Sleek design Cons: Cable disconnects occasionally through simple movement My honest rating on this microphone is a solid 9/10 only reason I could not give it a 10 is because the cable coming loose sometimes can be real inconvenient when playing certain games.

The microphone is just the best choice for this price. The quality of sound is very high and clear and it gets setup immediately after connecting the usb cable. Build quality on the actual mic is super high, the body is metal made and it does NOT feel cheap at all. If you want to get the best out of this mic, buy a shock mount and an arm mount for it. I definitely recommend this .

My Blue Yeti recently kicked the bucket. I considered buying a new Yeti, but then saw the Yeti Nano. I use it for content creating and live streaming. I’ve only had it for a week, but the audio quality is just as good as the Yeti in my opinion. I’ve seen the complaints about no gain knob on the back and using an app on your computer instead, but honestly it isn’t a big deal for me. Most of my voice settings are set up in my DAW anyways. It is definitely smaller than the Yeti, and if you’re looking to save a few bucks, but still want Yeti quality then I would definitely recommend the Yeti Nano.
