Not happy with this device
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to continuously unplug the USB cord from the microphone and plug it back in because it says no microphone signal it's not on the end of my PC it's in the microphone

Good quality, straightforward and easy to use.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to set up, sound quality is great, only requires a USB cord to power. Plugged it into a Macbook Pro and ran through Logic X with no problems (remember to chance input settings in Logic). Only possible downside is that it's possibly too big for on the go recording (stands almost a foot tall and is a bit heavy) but if it's just living on your desk this is an excellent choice for the price.

Great pro mic at an affordable price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do you want to sound like a professional? This is the mic to have - rich sound, multiple options - cardioid , stereo, omnidirectional or bi-directional for interviews, all of which are selected by a simple switch. It has an excellent silent-mute button (to cover your cough or clearing your throat with no clicks or on-off pops). Easily the best thing for podcasts, narrations, voice -overs and video recording. It also looks fantastic. I bought a mic stand for my Blue Yeti and also a spider shock mount along with foam cover and pop filter. The spider shock mount will definitely remove any electrical 'hum' you might get if you put the mic on the same desk as a PC - although you can always sit the mic on some dampening material or similar but the shock mount is the right way to do it ;) A great microphone and a bargain for the price too.

Sadly no.

It’s the second yeti microphone that has done this to me.

BLUE YETI MICROPHONE-
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Blue Yeti microphone is a game-changer for anyone seeking professional-grade audio recording and streaming capabilities. Whether you're a podcaster, a musician, or a content creator, this versatile and feature-packed microphone offers exceptional sound quality and ease of use that sets it apart from other USB microphones on the market. First and foremost, the audio quality of the Blue Yeti is outstanding. With its tri-capsule array, this microphone captures crystal-clear vocals and instruments with remarkable accuracy and depth. The ability to switch between four different polar patterns (cardioid, stereo, omnidirectional, and bidirectional) allows for versatile recording options, catering to a wide range of recording scenarios. Whether you're recording solo vocals, interviews, or group discussions, the Blue Yeti delivers consistent and professional results every time. Another standout feature of the Blue Yeti is its impressive build quality and design. The microphone feels solid and well-constructed, with a hefty weight that ensures stability during recording sessions. The adjustable stand allows for easy positioning and customization, ensuring optimal microphone placement for capturing the best sound. Additionally, the microphone features handy controls on the front, including a headphone volume knob, microphone gain control, and a mute button, providing convenient access to essential functions without the need to navigate software settings. Setting up the Blue Yeti is a breeze. With its plug-and-play USB connectivity, this microphone is compatible with both Mac and PC systems, eliminating the need for additional drivers or complex configurations. Simply connect the microphone to your computer, select it as the input device, and you're ready to go. This simplicity is especially beneficial for beginners or those who want to start recording without any technical hurdles. The Blue Yeti also offers excellent versatility when it comes to connectivity options. In addition to the USB connection, the microphone features a headphone output for real-time monitoring, allowing you to hear your recordings with zero latency. This feature is particularly useful for podcasters and musicians who require immediate feedback while recording. The microphone also includes a standard threaded mount, making it compatible with various boom arms and microphone stands for added flexibility and convenience. One minor drawback of the Blue Yeti is its sensitivity to background noise. While the microphone excels at capturing clear and detailed audio, it can also pick up ambient noise or vibrations, especially when using the omnidirectional pattern. However, this can be mitigated by adjusting the microphone gain and using pop filters or shock mounts to reduce unwanted noise. Overall, the Blue Yeti microphone is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to elevate their audio game. Its exceptional sound quality, versatility, and user-friendly design make it a go-to option for podcasters, streamers, musicians, and content creators. While it may be slightly sensitive to background noise, its performance and feature set more than make up for this minor drawback. With the Blue Yeti, you can confidently capture studio-quality sound and take your recordings to the next level.

Good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this to do mostly podcasts and voice recordings. It is easy to set up and worked without any driver installs. All you have to do is plug it in and select the Yeti as microphone in your recording software. I didn't realize I had to set the speaker to the yeti also to get the monitoring right. Adjusting the volume and sensitivity settings are not really straight forward and take some time to optimize using the OSX sound settings. There are a lot of factors you have to consider, like backgrund noise, vibration of the mic on the table, objects around the mic reflecting sounds, distance from the mic, volume of your own voice, etc. Not really specific to this mic, but nevertheless something you have to do to get the recordings right. The settings the vendor suggested didn't really work for me and I found the documentation a little scarce in that regard. Also, it does not come with any recording software, so you are on your own there. I went with Audacity for sound-only, still looking for the right screen casting software. I like the solid build quality, but it is fairly large and definitely not something I would have sitting on my desk in front of me all the time. So I set it up when I need it and store it off my desk otherwise. I'm overall happy with it, but it didn't really blow me away upon first use. It took quite some time to get set up right, so I didn't experience the initial "wow, this is so much better than the built-in mic".

GREAT Mic for Twitch and Youtube
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great high quality USB mic fro anyone wanting to get into Twitch or the YouTube world. This is one of the most common mics you see in the live streaming community due to the quality and ease of use you get for the price. Some recommendations i would make is to get a good Suspension Boom Scissor Arm Stand that will connect to desk and a pop filter.

Whiteout is beautiful and great entry-level mic
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.White-out is gorgeous, nice to have software support but also physical buttons. Yeti mics used to not have any native software controls but now they are recognized inside Ghub so if you want to do things like equalizing via that, you can (or whatever other audio software you are using). The physical buttons are also great though because you can make adjustments on the fly without having to navigate to software. That makes it pretty versatile for a lot of different use cases. Some people are experts and doing some serious audio work, others just want a nice mic for their zoom meetings. I'm in the latter category. I do think there are better mics out there for audio experts but for the price, this is an awesome mic for someone who just wants to sound better than everyone else in their meeting or want some good controls for things like background nosie.

Looking for a Great Desk Mic, look no further...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most people probably don't need a professional quality desk mic, but the sound quality produced by the Yeti is absolutely astonishing. The moment I logged into Teamspeak or Skype, people were able to instantly tell that I got a new microphone. Everything that I recorded test wise was crisp and clear, and the device is super easy to set up. If you're looking for something that will give you fantastic quality (Like professional grade stuff) for your streams, VOIP calls, podcasts, youtube videos, or various other recordings, without breaking the bank, then this is the mic for you

Solid, versatile, great value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a good mic with USB for laptop use for recording voice-over narration. Confirming widespread positive reviews, the Yeti Pro more than foots the bill for a variety of situations. While some may quibble with the unit's weight and may question its portability, I take into account the fact that the Yeti has several directional patterns (omni, cardioid, etc.) that can substitute for several mics that use only a single pattern -- not to mention that it can connect directly with my laptop. In sum, the feel of solidity, natural sounding results, versatility, connectivity and affordable price make the Yeti Pro a highly-recommended choice for my recording needs.

Very Good Microphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one very sensitive microphone. It offers the ability to record sound in all directions or from just the front. It works really well with Adobe Audition. Very easy setup. Mute button is very handy. You can connect your headphones directly into the microphone and hear yourself while recording. While using the front directional only, the microphone did not record the airplanes out side passing over nor did it pick up the loud clicking noise form a hard drive across the room. All things I was worried about during a recording, but true to its directional recording it did pick them up. Switch to full circle recording and it got both sounds.

Yeti Blue USB
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Blue Microphone is very easy to use right out of the box. My system was able to sync with it very quickly and I was able to download drivers based on the recommendations of my system. I practiced with it to learn how better adapt the mic with my voice and the acoustics of my environment. I liked the ability to shape my voice over my other microphone. I was surprised that the cost of the microphone is so low compared to some other units. I give this one two thumbs up.

Good, versatile mic
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Blue Yeti is definitely an awesome mic. HOWEVER, because it is so bulky, it's hard to find a good boom arm that'll fit it. The Yeti definitely has points in the versatility field because it has so many settings for audio capture (Omni, Stereo, Cardioid, Bi-Directional). But it was just too bulky for my taste, and some of the dials feel cheap, though overall the Yeti feels sturdy and made of quality materials. They just skimped on the volume knob I suppose. I'd recommend this mic if you can find it at a cheap price ( I got mine on sale for $99. Normal price is $150 I believe.) If you're looking for a different mic, I'd recommend the AT2020+ USB because it's much lighter, fits a variety of mounts, and can be had for just about the same price as the Yeti ($150). Though the AT2020 is more limited in features, I doubt you'll be using all of the settings of the Yeti anyway.

Does what they say it does
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, this microphone makes my high pitched man voice sound deeper than other mics I've used in the past. Just for that reason it gets 5 stars. I actually enjoyed hearing my recorded voice for the first time ever. As for the quality of the sound, it produces a crystal clear sound and the different settings let you record in different situations and environments. I have a parrot and a big dog, both of which take the sound of my voice as a signal to join in the chorus. Quite annoying when I'm on a phone call or trying to record a song or my trumpet. Both the voice and trumpet recording is flawless. The mic plays well with both my Mac and Virtual Windows PC. I also really like the headphone jack at the bottom which means I don't have to run a longer cable to my computer to connect my headphones. I couldn't think of anything bad to say about the mic except that it does stand just under 12 inches tall and it blocks my monitor, so I have to make the extreme effort to move the mic over a few inches. Overall, I really LOVE this microphone and as far as I'm concerned, it's worth every penny.

Excellent Mic
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this mic to have clear communications for the podcast that I host and it had to be the best purchase I've made for my show thus far. The mic is very simple to use, basically just plug it, select the settings depending on how you want to record and that's it. It has a head phone port for easy listening and the recordings are very clear. It does pick up background noise, but the recordings come out clear with very limited noise. Would definitely recommend this mic for anyone looking for a decent mic at a decent price.

Great Mic, love it. Has great settings
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great Mic. I love it. I mean I am not disappointed in any way. I live streamed and record with it as a trucker in my truck. It works great. Took me a few minutes to get used to the volume controls, but it works great, plug n play no fussing with downloading software. I play the guitar also and it comes in crystal clear. I only turn the volume just a bit like an eighth of a turn. This thing rocks. I kept the original foam packing to put it back when done. No static, crystal clear sound. I also use it with OBS for streaming, I mean I'm very happy with it. It is nice and balanced n of heavy duty weight.

Very versatile mic for any situation
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We needed a mic for two person podcasting and single person recording for a YouTube channel. The ability to adjust the pick-up pattern makes this mic a perfect choice for people that need microphones for different purposes, but want to save some money. It sounds great, and works without any software or installation. Using a OTG usb adapter, it even works with my Android phone.

This is a great mic for the novice streamer!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this microphone. its versatile, heavy, durable, and just feels over all like a quality product. If you use it correctly and use the right settings than this mic will be fine for even professional streamers. I stream on twitch and have over 20k followers and this is the microphone I choose to use! Worth every penny. Plug and play USB. No auxiliary and sound boards neccessary. Just as good as most XLR mics!!
