the longest time sound has been the biggest issue on our channel in particular I've tried lavalier microphones shock mounted microphones atop DSLR cameras of which you're listening to right now pretty much everything except for something like this the blue Yeti ultimate professional USB condenser microphone okay so this thing sounds pretty sweet and pretty much any mode that you set it in let me go and give you a tour while using the microphone itself in stereo mode as a voiceover to start off the Yeti boasts fantastic build quality the included stand is rigid padded and dynamic enough to allow the microphone itself to rotate over 270 degrees it can be removed from the stand altogether by simply unscrewing the pins on either side of the stand itself the front of the microphone features the blue brand logo a mute button which when pushed will mute the microphone ambient flashing and a volume knob for use with a headphone set the bottom of the device contains the USB port for use with the included USB cable support for a large microphone stand this one's currently fitted with the optional smaller microphone stand adapter and finally the headphone jack to be used in conjunction with the volume knob up front on the opposite side of the Eddy are two more knobs one for functionality and one for gain the gain is a very simple tool turning it up will generally increase microphone sensitivity too much sensitivity however can lead to unwanted background noise and Static the bottom knob allows for switching between the yetis four built-in sound modes stereo omnidirectional cardioid and bi-directional blue recommends the stereo preset which i'm using currently for instrumentals ensembles and other music related activities cardioid is preferable for radio talk show host voice overs and solo artists omnidirectional is ideal for conference calls and large audiences when people you know surround the microphone and lastly bi-directional mode is solely for the purpose of interviews duets and tag team projects here's a quick sample of each preset this is a test of the blue Yeti microphone in stereo mode this is a test of the blue Yeti microphone an omnidirectional mode this is a test of the blue Yeti microphone in cardioid mode this is a test of the blue Yeti microphone in bi-directional mode at fifty percent gain so that's it everyone for this video I love this blue Yeti microphone i think was a great investment for the studio and at only ninety nine dollars for this kind of sound you really can't beat that if you think that you can't beat it you have a product that's similar in price point and quality picture to listed in the comments below attached some links you know let people know about the other options that they have out there but in my personal opinion this blue Yeti is it's fabulous for what i paid for it and stay tuned because we will be taking advantage of this microphone in all of my future videos it will be featured and used a lot i expect so if you like the video be sure to give it a thumbs up if you didn't like it for whatever reason give it a thumbs down and let me know also in the comments why you didn't like it stay tuned for other videos like this other tech videos and other computer science ii videos i have the vlogs for the lenovo ideapad 100 s coming up very soon this is science to do thanks for learning with us
