Excellent microphone thus far. Colleagues can hear me clearly on teams calls as I work from home. Only thing you have to be weary of is to check your volume so you dont blow up the eardrums of your recipients on calls. Item was easy to setup on my adjustable desk and has an arm that doesnt interfere with desk space usage.

Incredible microphone. I am a professional online teacher to thousands of students around the world and teach 3-6 webinar classes and conduct half a dozen or more Zoom meetings every single week for many years now...and this Yeti Blue microphone has me sounding better than anything else I've tried; including, $200 top of the line gaming headphones with boom mic used for teaching webinars for a year, $400 Plantronics business wireless Over the Ear headphone with mic that was my go-to gear for meetings for at least 10 years, and $300 ear buds with $150 Rode lapel mic used for meetings and webinars for over 6 months. This mic is incredibly flexible to adjust to any circumstances. With the gain turned way up, listeners could hear light footsteps on the stairs across the house (on the other side of the kitchen and dining rooms, around a corner and down a hallway, with my office door shut!) Needless to say, they have incredible sound sensitivity but also fantastic sound quality. On other mics my voice has always sounded high and a little nasally. Its always bothered me. But on the Blue Mic, I sound like a radio DJ and have excellent tone that my long time listeners say now sounds fantastic when listening to long lessons. When I turn the gain down and use some of the built in effects plus the noise cancelling built into Zoom, my audience can't hear my landscapers lawn mower right outside my office window which is so loud in person that I can't even hear my students talking back to me with my speaker at full volume. So I can't hear them at all due to the noise, but they can't hear anything but me. On any of my other gear, I have to mute the mic to keep them from hearing the noise, but simultaneously interrupting my ability to speak also. So the incredible sound quality, clarity and effects make noise canceling software even more effective. No matter how sensitive or noise filtering you want/need, this is a fantastic mic for the job. The multidirectional capability is also fantastic if interviewing or talking with a partner into the same mic. Having 4 mics in one and the ability to choose multiple recording patterns for one, two or even a room full of sound makes this mic incredibly versatile and removes the need to mic up multiple sources. The boom is the only item that I don't rave about because its just decent. It is a little hard to tighten and keep locked down if you move it around a lot. I move mine a LOT because I have a sitting and standing desk and switch back and forth throughout my day, causing me to relocate my mic several time a day depending on what I'm doing. Even after a year though, I can still crank down on the tighteners (albeit its gotten pretty hard recently) and it will stay put. The bottom line is, I LOVE this mic and I don't hesitate recommending it. Best mic I've ever owned.

Great plug and play with quality sound and look. Not only does this mic have great sound for the quality it looks great. I am a teacher and during these trying times of Covid my gaming den became my classroom. As I started to realize the difficulties of getting class engagement in an online setting I made the decision to look at the media my students (high school) were consuming by choice. After doing this I decided to make my class streams look more like a twitch stream. While much of this was achieved through software, a better sounding Mic was one of the essential hardware purchases I had to make (on my own dime of course). Once my new system for instruction was complete I noticed huge upticks in participation and engagement in class. It was a huge win for my students who surely received a better education during Covid through engagement and interest than they would have via the standard teacher sitting at their dining table with a Chromebook and zoom than most students were subjected to. *Insert "Modern problems call for modern solutions" meme here*
