Customer Ratings & Reviews

The quality of this mic is impeccable, however it picks up literally everything. If you are looking to use this as a microphone for your computer to stream or do anything other than have short conversations or voice commands then a boom arm is mandatory. The stand it comes with picks up every tap, touch, bump, mouse click, or keyboard stroke that you make. I turned the mic onto cardiod and the gain all the way down and it still picks up my mouse clicks. I have gotten it down to a minimum with some third party programs, but it is still there. This microphone is excellent for recording your voice or sounds that you need for editing, however it might pick up more than you would like.

This mic is a life saver when it comes to voice recordings with no studio resources. Just plug it in and you’re ready to go. Excellent for virtual meetings, podcasting and voice recordings. The response of this mic tends to be a little hot, so be sure to be in an isolated soace or try to look for good acoustics areas to set up your mic with your computer, laptop, smartphone or tablet.

Very happy with the quality of this mic. Use it for skype and a regular podcast recording. Simple installation. Perfect sound quality.

Solid microphone, very ergonomic and just he right weight to it which makes it feel sturdy, and high quality. I like how you can change the setting to have different types pf output for your voice.

It's an old design but it works for entry level. I needed an upgrade to the mic on my SteelSeries headset and this does well enough. You can toggle the recording pattern based on your needs, so it works for interviews, solo-recording, and for meetings. The input can be adjusted with Logitech G HUB (this software isn't so terrible anymore). It comes with presets that I didn't find helpful, and the EQ is pretty basic. Signal cleanup has a lot of options though it doesn't explain everything clearly. I ended up using only the de-esser and de-popper and rely on the Steel Series Sonar software for noise reduction, noise gate, compressor, and EQ. The stand is sturdy, but not really that great. I ended up getting an arm for it. The mic was on sale when I got it and I had Best Buy bucks, so it was worth it, but there may be better entry level mics at this point. Paired

I saw good reviews and bought one when it was on sale. They are big and heavy so don't plan on moving it around much. The sound quality and features are nice. Overall 4 out of 5 stars.

Its a good mic for the price but i wish you are given a software key with the purchase on top of once you get the software its not that easy to use but over all a good product.

Good mic for a good price. Works well when I stream. Audio is clear. Easy to use. Pretty.

I purchased this mic for a recording project I was doing for an online class. It works great for what I needed it for. The mic. is clear and make my voice sound really professional, while I'm recording into my laptop.

Had trouble with the USB port, employee helped trade-in for a new one no problem. Now it works perfectly and completes my setup nicely!

I like the microphone. I gave it a 3 star because the first one I bought maybe 2 months ago was unusable after the port fell out. The 2nd is going fine and I still like it. I got insurance this time.

I got this to do mostly podcasts and voice recordings. It is easy to set up and worked without any driver installs. All you have to do is plug it in and select the Yeti as microphone in your recording software. I didn't realize I had to set the speaker to the yeti also to get the monitoring right. Adjusting the volume and sensitivity settings are not really straight forward and take some time to optimize using the OSX sound settings. There are a lot of factors you have to consider, like backgrund noise, vibration of the mic on the table, objects around the mic reflecting sounds, distance from the mic, volume of your own voice, etc. Not really specific to this mic, but nevertheless something you have to do to get the recordings right. The settings the vendor suggested didn't really work for me and I found the documentation a little scarce in that regard. Also, it does not come with any recording software, so you are on your own there. I went with Audacity for sound-only, still looking for the right screen casting software. I like the solid build quality, but it is fairly large and definitely not something I would have sitting on my desk in front of me all the time. So I set it up when I need it and store it off my desk otherwise. I'm overall happy with it, but it didn't really blow me away upon first use. It took quite some time to get set up right, so I didn't experience the initial "wow, this is so much better than the built-in mic".

The Mic quality is very good and worth the buy, its best to buy this with some sort of sound proofing in you're area of use because the Mic does pick up quite literally everything, the mic is also compatible with most ligtech softwares which allows for major customization, even without the software the mic is really good with the 4 adjustable modes, there was only one major backlash when buying the product which lead me to buying a new cord, which was only 7$ but basically the cord was very loose, and when reading other reviews it seems like this is very common with this mic, but other than the one cord problem the mic is really good

Great sound, solid build. My only complaint might be that it's a bit bigger and heavier than I expected and comes with no pop/wind screen filter. That would be a nice and cheap extra. The headphone option is a nice plus as are the adjustable microphone pickup patterns available with the flick of a switch.

The Blue Yeti is definitely an awesome mic. HOWEVER, because it is so bulky, it's hard to find a good boom arm that'll fit it. The Yeti definitely has points in the versatility field because it has so many settings for audio capture (Omni, Stereo, Cardioid, Bi-Directional). But it was just too bulky for my taste, and some of the dials feel cheap, though overall the Yeti feels sturdy and made of quality materials. They just skimped on the volume knob I suppose. I'd recommend this mic if you can find it at a cheap price ( I got mine on sale for $99. Normal price is $150 I believe.) If you're looking for a different mic, I'd recommend the AT2020+ USB because it's much lighter, fits a variety of mounts, and can be had for just about the same price as the Yeti ($150). Though the AT2020 is more limited in features, I doubt you'll be using all of the settings of the Yeti anyway.

The Yeti microphones are an absolute joy to have in our studio. They really enhance the level of sound on our videos. However, they are rather large. The setup is easy enough, and the instructions have words and pictures (helpful for some folks that seemingly can't read). If you follow the pictures, you're golden. I bought two of these thinking I would need more than one for the setup we chose. We didn't. We just needed one, based on the mode that allows one microphone for two people having an interview. Great product all around, just wish it was a little lighter.

Overall a great USB microphone for creators and those looking for better quality audio on zoom calls and webinars. The build quality is great, and the microphone is a well-designed addition to my setup. The Yeti Blue Microphone is easy to use straight out of the box, and can be configured further using the Logitech G Hub software. I am experiencing a bug with the software across all of my devices where it shows the microphone being stuck in the setup process, but the configuration works regardless. I have noticed the audio feels a bit thin/hollow, but the quality you get out of this microphone really depends on how far away you are from it. For best results, try to position it 6-8 inches from your face, and speak into the front of the microphone, not the top.

hook up is easy. this is fairly large as far as peripherals on desktop. I use mine as mic but speakers as direct connect from monitor to pc (and this occasionally causes problems because the yeti "speaker" setting tries to take primary in some applications). will likely try to swap that connection and see if it resolves the issue. pickup is good so I don't have to yell to be heard in my meetings anymore

Decent microphone for its being a lower price point. The only thing I wouldn’t liked better quality of was the swivel to adjust the mic. The knob wouldn’t stay very tight so the mic just ended up being laid flat instead of standing up or at an angle. Other than that the mic itself recorded great, good sounds quality and super easy to use and get set up to my laptop.

Very solid microphone works very well and the settings are easy to understand. It’s a little tall and may not be the best if you’re recording yourself as the microphone will be shown a lot in the frame and the switches are very stiff. But the buildquality is fantastic
