Yeti Usb Microphones

The Blue Yeti it’s a best USB 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 researched a lot of microphones before settling on the Samson Q2U. The main thing I'm using it for is to speak with people over Discord and Zoom (I built my PC and it does not have a built-in mic). I did also try it on a MacBook Pro and it worked easily. I would have loved a Shure SM7B, but the price is too much to justify its purchase for what I'm needing a mic for. Regardless, I am more than satisfied with the sound quality of the Q2U for the price range. Build quality is beyond what I would expect in this price range. Audio quality is no different. Voice playback is warm and has a good range; not tinny at all, which is the main worry I have with less expensive microphones. I was comparing it mostly with the Blue Yeti and a few Audio Technica's that were around $100, but decided to go with the Q2U instead due to the complaints about Blue Yeti online (despite its popularity), the price of the Q2U, and the fact that the Q2U has both USB and XLR jacks. That feature alone sets this mic apart from most of its competition, including the Yeti. I will probably purchase a quality boom arm so the microphone is not sitting on the desk between the keyboard and myself, but for not this kit works just fine.

Love the Yeti USB mic, & the $$$ I saved from buying it at B & H... 1/3 off the list price !!!

I have not try it yet

its the yeti... not much to add to the info that's already out there. it does all the things, and it's one of the all-around nicest USB mics in the ~$100 price range.

The Yeti USB Microphone is easy to use, it plugs right into the USB port of your computer, you press a button and you're ready to go! I used it on a three-way Skype conversation for a podcast and the sound quality was great. It's definitely a great tool for capturing high quality audio.

I use the Yeti for screencast voiceover work, and it rocks. It is the quietest USB mic I have tested, and the tone and clarity of the recordings that it produces are amazing. At first, I thought that I didn't like the loosness of the volume and gain knobs, but it actually makes sense that they have some play to reduce finger noise when adjusting on the fly. The mic, while big (very big and heavy, but not too heavy without the desktop stand attached), fits nicely into my Rode SM2 Shockmount. It won't go all of the way in, but I wouldn't want it to as that would obscure the knobs. I just curl the USB cord underneath it and set it in there and it works out well. Is this a stage-ready solution? No, because the Yeti is not actually attached to the mount, but it's perfect for stationary desktop boom-arm applications. All in all, I'd say BUY THIS MIC !!! You probably won't find a better deal than B&H offers either (at least, I couldn't).

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.

Whether you're looking to record yourself playing instruments, singing, or podcasts, the Yeti offers the best bang-for-your-buck when it comes to USB microphones. Using the microphone couldn't be more simple; just plug in the USB cable, open recording software of your choice, and in minutes you'll be recording some surprisingly clear and crisp audio. On the topic of audio quality, one must mention the top-notch audio recording capabilities of the microphone. The Yeti uses a three-capsule design which allow for a wide array of recording patterns. The audio comes out well-balanced, picks up bass well, and produces most frequencies with excellent clarity. With that said, do not expect it to be able to record CD quality audio, but for a USB mic, it sure has just about every other beat. The only con I can really think of is the Yeti's size, which might make it difficult to transport. With that said, the Yeti is very well built and features a rugged metal body and stand.
