The Best Blue Yeti Settings 

Thank you very much! Yea the mic is honestly really good with some very easy settings tweaked! After that apply whatever filters you want to tailor it to your voice and boom! 😃

Sir, what's the mic that you're using in the video?

😂 look audio is a wild right Bud! just make sure to check that every now and then as windows likes to reset that stuff all the time!

Same. Back in 2016 my laptop mic was busted, so I just plugged a webcam in to use as a mic for about 8 months.

Im sure you aint the only one☠️

glad it was helpful for you Bud! :D

like any thing that is popular, it'll gather a group of people that will hate just to hate. I personal find that this mic works just fine as a solid starting mic and well into a career of gaming and streaming. It all comes down to how you have it set up, if you set it up wrong, no matter the mic, it'll sound bad. I think from my voice in this video you can hear that it's just fine :)

It's perfectly useful, but for the price (or lower) there are many better options, like the Neat Worker Bee 2, for instance.

You’re welcome Bud! 😃 just trying help others get the most of our their devices without needed to spend more money!

I'm glad they were helpful! :D

very much so! It's surprising just how necessary some tweaks are to this mic. it gives this mic a had rapport for those that aren't as tech savvy so hopefully this helps!

You are very welcome Bud! :D I'm glad this was helpful to you!

😂 I wasn’t sure what else to call it to make it make sense for the most amount of people 😂 I’m glad you got a kick outta it!

I feel that! I thought it was an end address mic for my first month of using it 😂 don’t worry we all makes mistakes here and there 😊

​@@PlentyAZach btw what mic are you using in this video that you're speaking in

absolutely bud! I'm glad this helped you out! :)

You are very welcome!! I’m glad this was helpful to you! 😃

I'm glad this helped you out Ike! :D

haha yea, I usually have my video flipped as it makes the most sense to me while filming and editing. The blue yeti and really any mic can be a real pain to dial in correctly. It takes a lot of trial and error to find the best side for your own voice. Even to this day I'm still playing around with different effects and settings as well. :)

@@PlentyAZach I still find that the Blue Yeti tends to easily push the treble compared to others microphone I've tested. Sometimes, i have difficult recognizing my voice on some videos, it sounds like a teenager who has been castrated xD

You are very welcome bud! :D

Is it actually better with this setting ?

I think that as far as mics go the yeti is a solid jumping in point but it does have a slightly mudder sound to it I've noticed. You might be able to EQ some of that away but at the end of the day it is an entry $100 mic and it's hard to compare that to like a $600 set up with xlr input and SM7B or equivalent. Just have to make the most of it!

@@PlentyAZach esactly. i changed my plan of attack. I am going to go for that madlib/lord quas sound instead

You are very welcome! :D

If your voice is still really load try lowering your volume inside the windows sound panel. If your voice is the same volume as the key board and clicks then you’ll need noise removal software. My latest video I published goes through every way to remove noises like that. Let me know what helps bud!

We've all been there bud no worries! :D happy creating!

You're welcome bud!

Glad it was helpful! :D Have a great one bud!

Don't worry bud! I've seen comments like this quite a bit so don't worry bud! :D

In theory it is best for it to be right in line with your mouth as that's how they do it in most studios for audio recording. the main reason I have it off to the side is for content like this and streaming, you generally don't want to block your face. So I find that if you put it slightly to the side and angle the front of the mic so it's still facing your head that it does just find for this type of content. Also at some point I read that angling it a bit like this can help with plosives and that air burst effect. though, a great pop filter will also solve that issue too. hope this helps! :)

You’re very welcome bud! 😃

You’re very welcome! 😃 I’m glad this was useful for you!

depends on what programs you are using. if OBS i have a video that details all of this. otherwise if you look up your program of choice + noise suppression, there should be something that helps you :)

I'd make sure you have the mic set in omnidirection pick up pattern. On the back with all the different polar pattern options you'd want to select the one that is just a perfect circle. From there make sure you have it set about an equal distance from everyone in the room and then go have fun!

Unfortunately the only real option with this is using noise removal tools. My latest video goes over all ways to remove noise within OBS as well as some none software tips so maybe you’ll find something useful in there. But noises are the hardest to avoid in any microphone.

@@PlentyAZach thank you for your response & help! I’ll take a look ☺️

I still have the rubber washers installed on there so it looks a bit cleaner but I just made sure i wasn't cross threading them and tightened them up haha

You are very welcome! :D

haha wish I could, other than having the mic close to your face and make sure you aren't clipping that about the most I can do without having the mic myself or playing with EQs and the sorts!

Sorry! I should make sure I add something to the title like "Not ASMR!" the tips can help for ASMR but it isn't done in that style!

@@PlentyAZach its no biggie :)

It might be that the sampling frequency of all of those devices aren't set to the same thing. In your windows sound panel make sure they ALL have either 44.1kHz or 48kHz make sure they are all the same and not a mix of both. having a mix can really cause issues with audio syncing and you get this laggy like quality out of it.

You’re welcome! 😊

Binh, are you recording in OBS or another software? Generally, when you hit record, I'd wait about 5 to 10 seconds before I start speaking to make sure everything is working and running. If it's not picking you up in say something like discord, it's possible that the input sensitivity is set up to high and needs to be lowered to properly pick you up. Otherwise I'll need a bit more information in order to help you out Bud :)

@@PlentyAZach thanks.

pretty far away. maybe around 3-5 feet. keep in mind that the further you are from the mic the louder all the surrounding audio will be. The more you increase the gain the more it will also increase all the unwanted sounds as well.

Don't worry Bradley, we've all been tehre hahah that's why I made this to help everyone out :D

I really like the InnoGear Microphone Arm Stand. They are around $50 USD but I've been using the same arm for like 2 years with no issues on all sorts of mics. To me that was the best arm for the price :)

You might be able to use a Ground Loop Noise Isolator like the ones that MPow makes. this pretty much killed all the noise I had in my system when recording!

@@PlentyAZach thanks for the info

Eduardo, I believe you can. I found this video here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NlOVDFCjTxw.html from "YourSixStudios" that I think could help you :D

It's possible that that USB is not able to support the bandwidth needed for a mic, you could try other USBs around your computer, or even get a PCI USB HUB and try that. Otherwise make sure you have any drivers for the mic of your usb controllers and see if that helps out. if none of that is working, it's possible that the mic has an issue and you'd have to take to the manufacturer about that one.

@@PlentyAZach well my computer is years & years old , i think thats why as u said Not able the support the bandwidth , but thank you

it can be yes. really any mic boom arm will support the blue yeti. I would just find one that fits your budget and go from there :)

You may have to go into your windows sound settings and turn down the gain inside of windows. Sometimes windows will default the digital gain to like +10db or something wild like that. turn the gain down to around 50% on the slider and then adjust your blue yeti gain and see where that gets you :)

@@PlentyAZach thanks, I suspected it had something to do with the software

It is the Lewitt LCT 440 Pure :) I love that microphone!

My gain is actually almost all the way down. depending on how loud you speak you may need to adjust it. I speak very loudly so I turn my gain very very low.

That is an LCT 440 Pure :)

When you go to the sound control panel, you should be able to right click inside any white spot in there, make sure that display disconnect and disabled devices is checked. If it's not in any of the recording spot now, you have a couple options. A: Try a different USB cable, make sure it has data transfer capabilities. B: try a different USB on your computer, could be an issue with that usb. C: check to see if there are any drivers for your mic, usbs, and your PC in general. D: if all else fails, you might have to contact their support as it could be an issue specifically with their mic.

I'd recommend setting it to 0dB and then going up or down from there depending on how loud or quite you are.
