Blue Microphones Yeti Pro Vs Spark Digital

I bought my Rycote Shock Mount USM to support my Blue Spark Digital Studio Condenser USB/Lightning Microphone for PC/Mac/iPad. It's adjustable universal locking system securely holds my microphone so I can permanently leave it stand mounted. The Hytrel thermoplastic it is made from allows me to adjust and lock to any vertical, horizontal or angled position without fear of slippage from the weight of the microphone.

For its price, the Blue Yeti far surpasses other microphones in its category. This microphone is easy to use and ready to go, simply plug the USB into your computer and start recording! You will be amazed by the quality of this microphone and its ease of use. I absolutely recommend this microphone for those who are looking for fast and easy quality audio recording. This mic is best used for podcasts, youtube videos, and can even be used for budget friendly music recording!

I've owned the Blue Yeti Microphone for years. The Pro Version is even better.

The Blue Yeti it’s a best USB Microphone.

After research, I decided to go with the Blue Yeti mic instead of the Blue Yeti Pro as problems associated with the Yeti Pro's gain/USB functionality appeared common. The Blue Yeti provides straightforward, clear performance, and is a great addition to a home studio.

I decided to purchase a Blue Yeti Pro mic as I was making a music video for a school project and needed a relatively easy to use mic to record decent quality recordings. I decided to go with the Blue Yeti Pro from all the positive reviews given on it so far. It was recommended that I buy the Pro version of this mic over the normal one as there is a difference in sample rates. Basically, this mic is considered better for recording acoustic instruments. The Blue Yeti Pro is VERY easy to use. Plug it in and off you go! For a usb microphone the sensitivity in which it picks up noises is also really good. Every time I take in a breath, the Blue Yeti Pro records me doing it! A little embarrassing, but goes to show the great recording capabilities of this mic. The build quality of this mic is exceptional and is securely packaged in the box. I even had a little bit of trouble better the mic out of the moulded Styrofoam! Having the four recording settings is really handy and Blue makes sure you know which one is which with a well written concise manual talking about the settings. The only possible downside of this microphone is the issue of the low gain settings that many buyers may complain about. However, on the mac it is an easy fix. All you have to do is to click 'go' in the toolbar at the top of the screen, click on 'utilities' and find a application called 'Audio MIDI Setup'. Make sure the mic is connected to the mac before opening it up. Click on 'BLUE USB Audio 2.0' and turn the input and output settings up to the very right so that the values should be at 1. With that adjustment, the microphone should have more gain, so you don't have to turn the gain knob up all the way in a desperate bid for more gain. The Blue Yeti Pro is also a fairly bulky, heavy mic. But since I don't move it around much, for me at least, this is not an issue.

Purchased this microphone after using the Blue Yeti for a bit over a year. They are both excellent performers but the Yeti Pro has just a bit more crispness which makes it an outstanding microphone for Karaoke. Having both the USB and XLR enables me to use it at home and out when performing. overall just a great piece of equipment

Excellent for my Blue Yeti microphone! Easy to install.

Integrates well with Blue Boom & Blue Yeti. Well constructed, unobtrusive.

Very substantial stand. Holds my Blue Yeti, steady!
