Re: First Blue Yeti Microphone Test

it sounded very very nice, a little "proximity" 
effect toward the beginning which is typical but 
you moved away. Stereo image, excellent, 
including quite a nice "low rumble," probably 
from traffic outside? :) very nice highs, and as 
I said, the imaging is excellent.
THANKS! sounds like mine, and am actually 
impressed by the lack of "humnmnmnmnmnmn" which 
characterized my experience with my yeti at first 
on a wooden tabletop, but fortunately that's gone!

Which did you use? 44,100Hz 16 bit? or higher?

I hope to have the rumble sorted soon, could have been a number of 
things, possibly even the Train Station next door but I'd say more than 
likely the computer was resonating through the wooden desktop.


I also hadn't tweaked anything or perhaps a better way of putting it was 
that I didn't know how to tweak the Blue Yeti at that time so yep, a 
little clipping in places but very impressed if I dare say so myself 
given that I only had the thing for around 10 minutes.


I just used 44.1KHZ Stereo FLac, ain't that good enough? 

As soon as all the filters and stuff arrive I'll go for another test drive.

I honestly don’t know the answer to that question, the Microphone itself would 
be I should think given the various patterns that can be used but the output of 
the computer is just plain stereo and can’t be changed as far as I know.

Perhaps someone else here might have more knowledge on this point than I do as 
I’m setting up for the first time.

it does sound "binaural," and it is quite phase 
sensitive, which matters to me! many "stereo" 
microphones are not as phase sensitive as they 
should be with each other, if you know what I mean. :)

Well thanks and all I can say is that - with the Pop Filter applied - it sounds
