Setup Yeti Microphone With Audacity

The Blue Yeti it’s a best USB Microphone.

The Yeti is great. Plug and play compatibility with Audacity and Adobe Audition. I use it for amateur recording; mostly jam sessions so we can lay down multi layer tracks. The omni recording function is great for picking up multiple instruments. I'm using it Windows 7. It is a bit bulky, but for what I'm using it for that's not a problem.

Excellent boom arm. Works well with the Blue Yeti microphone. Quick and easy setup.

Bought this to use with my Yeticaster setup (Blue's Yeti microphone, compass tube-style broadcast boom arm, and Radius III Shockmount). Wasn't sure how the mount would work with my tube-style arm but was pleasantly surprised. Easy installation, robust & sturdy construction and ideally compliments my equipment in both form and function (see pictures). Love it!

Excellent for my Blue Yeti microphone! Easy to install.

The Blue Yeti Microphone is an excellent microphone for professional use!Most sites sell this for $150, but I got it for $ on B&H!...

I use the microphone to upload web based content on my websites and have found the Yeti Blue Microphone to perform very well. I recommend it to anyone thinking of purchasing something for doing podcast, audio sound bytes, etc. The price was great as well.

Great microphone for beginners. My wife and I were able to get a decent recording on our first try, using the Audacity DAW. I will mention that the mic is quite sensitive. We had to shut down all the in-operation electric devices in the room plus a fan that runs 24-7. The mic picks up everything in the nearby area! Plan to keep using it for our Christmas recording project. Nice job, Blue!!

I purchased this microphone to replace a Logitec headset that put clicks into Audacity tracks when recording podcasts. And am I glad I did: great sound, great look, and no clicks.
