Blue Yeti Blackout

The Blue Yeti is a great microphone, it has very good sound and is solidly built. The microphone has a high sensitivity and a good dynamic range / frequency spectrum. The sound is very natural and free of distortions. The microphone also has a good signal/noise ratio, the recordings have little noise. A good feature is the headphone input which allows monitoring without delay / echo. What I also like is that the Blue Yeti has four different types of shooting modes, depending on the application. This makes it very versatile in use. The cordioid mode is ideal for voice-overs, but it also has a mode for a more spacious recording pattern. It is actually four microphones in 1. In my opinion a very professional microphone for an affordable price.

Nice design, but a bit large in size. Many sound options to control the sound and it stands very firmly on the desk. Very sensitive to detail, I had to change the USB port to get less vibration from my PC.

It installs very quickly and communicates very well with other programs like Audacity and OBS. Since it is a popular item, there are many tips & tricks on youtube on how to get the best out of it.
