There’s some upgrades if you’re comparing the Yeti X against its predecessor, like the ability to record in 24bit, an extra condenser mic capsule, and the finer controls for adjusting noise reduction, compression and EQs through the Logitech G-Hub software.Īnd while that’s definitely helpful, and I’ll explain more in a bit, none of these options can have as big an impact as a shock mount, a boom arm, or a quick trip to Clark Rubber to get some foam for the walls.
I’m leading with the price because, ultimately, it’s the biggest factor that users have to consider. And there’s the cheaper Yeti Nano, which supports 24bit recording and the two most popular recording modes, cardioid and omnidirectional, from $149. Those cheaper options include the original Yeti for under $200, in practically any colour you want. The Yeti X in Australia retails from $289, placing it comfortably in the upper tier of the microphone market. But for that audience, the original Yeti is still a compelling option. Now, Blue has a sequel: the Blue Yeti X, a USB-only mic targeted at gamers looking to venture into streaming and bits of content creation. The Yeti has been enormously successful, paving the way for a generation of content creators looking for a plug-and-play USB microphone. Maybe it’s been in the foreground of a YouTube video, hovering somewhere on a Twitch stream, or maybe up alongside other desktop microphones at a convention somewhere. Chances are you’ve seen the Blue Yeti before.
