Blue Microphones launches Yeti USB microphone

Blue Microphones announces the option of Yeti, a versatile plug-and-play USB microphone that offers studio-quality audio for recording music, podcasting, gaming and more. Yeti may be the world’s most celebrated USB microphone, and may be the flagship model in Blue’s considerable type of award-winning USB products.

Yeti features three of Blue’s premium condenser capsules for the best quality, most versatile audio recording capabilities. Yeti is made upon the same Blue technology that powers the world’s most elite studios and artists and offers studio-quality sound for just about any project-from music, vocals, and podcasting to gaming, YouTube videos, voice-overs, Skype and more. Getting started off with Yeti is really as simple as unboxing the mic and plugging it straight into any Mac or PC, no drivers needed.

For superior results in virtually any situation, Yeti provides four different recording patterns-Cardioid: records sound sources that are directly in front of the microphone, ideal for podcasts, game streaming, vocal performances, voice-overs and instruments; Omnidirectional: records 360 degrees around the mic for capturing a multi-person podcast or band practice; Bi-Directional: records from both front and rear of the microphone-good for recording a duet or a two-person interview; and Stereo: records separate left and right audio.

Yeti features a built-in headphone jack for zero-latency monitoring so that you can hear precisely how your recording sounds without the distracting delay. Direct controls offer easy adjustment of headphone volume, pattern selection, instant mute, and microphone sensitivity (gain). Yeti also includes a standard thread for mounting to traditional mic stands or desktop boom and includes an adjustable desktop stand.

At present, Yeti is merely on Amazon India in the colours - Midnight Blue, Grey, Silver, Platinum and Whiteout at Rs. 12,495.
