Customer Ratings & Reviews

I picked up a Blue Yeti for some not-really-professional demo stuff we need to do at work (I work at a place that makes Web videos from time to time, and while we always hire a pro to do the final recording, it's useful to have a decent mic to record VO for our demo work for clients as we make progress on a project). I'm recording in a small (10' x 10') office, with drywall and furniture, so it's *far* from an ideal environment, but the Yeti is *shockingly* echoey, regardless of the mic pickup pattern. I've gone as far as to make a "cave" around the Yeti with a winter coat so it's nestled in a thick down coat with only about a 8" "window" facing me as I record, but I can't discern any difference between that and no baffling at all. I see videos online of people recording on the Yeti, doing podcasts and so on, with no special equipment, in a "normal" room, and it sounds nothing like the echo I'm getting here. Even with the gain way down and me speaking about 1 cm from the mic, it still sounds like a bathroom stall. How can I first diagnose if this is normal, and second, do something about it without building a whole recording studio just to accommodate one microphone? Mac OS X and Audacity, if it helps. I'm pretty new to all of this.

Kind of hard to use. I tried to connect to my phone and it messed up the volume on my phone.

Not really doing much more than a cheaper mic! I hate that the Best Buy guy sold me this.

This is better than a cheap microphone, but I would recommend purchasing a better one for another $100 or so.

It looks really good. Hard to choose between black and white. Widh i ordered tge one with the filter since its not available separately.

Not a plug and play microphone. Was a lot more complicated than I thought it was going to be.

expensive and extremely fragile, good sound quality

Mike came highly recommended, i didn't find it particularly well built, usb plug is very flimsy.

I’ve had it for a month been using it almost everyday for school. It’s worked fine until now. It only lasted one month! Not worth the money spent. The volume automatically jumps around then it shuts off. This happens while on google meets, twitch, or playing online with friends. Definitely would not recommend.

Good value the sound is not the greatest but works

Produces good sound and has many features to customize it's use.

was good for about two days then it starts making a weird noise randomly throughout the videos we create.

Worked well for what it was bought for. Bought to game with

Recorded using ADR stages in the film industry for about 8 years, 10 years or so ago. I thought consumer grade tech would have come up to speed a little more than this product delivered even though it was one of the more pricey options. For those looking for standard digital media VO this will work well enough. But my sense is you could have at least the quality for a much better price.

This is a decent mic for podcasting. The headphone jack is a nice addition

Decent microphone. Mid grade. You get what you pay for.

Doesn’t connect without a computer plug in. Need to adjust the sound. More of an advanced microphone. Great quality but difficult for beginners.

Bought 2 and 1 had Trouble Working !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i mean it's alright but the down side it pick's up every noise

the plastic piece inside which connects the cord broke easily,
