But the speaker is talking into a less sensitive part of the microphone. In this situation the Yeti’s mic capsule (the part sensitive to sound) is pointing directly at the keyboard. The Blue Yeti should not be used as an Front Address microphone.
Now you understand from which direction the Blue Yeti accepts sound it can explain how a computer keyboard can appear loud if the Yeti is mistakenly used as a front address mic. You should also know that if you have chosen the correct mode or pattern, you should be speaking into the side that includes the “Blue” logo. The Blue logo indicates the front of your Blue Yeti microphone. A side-address microphone accepts sound from the side, or at 90° to its long axis. However, the Blue Yeti is a “side-address microphone”. These are “ front address microphones ”, where the speaker, singer, or instrument face the top or end of the microphone. Or maybe concerts where the singer holds a vocal mic just in front of their mouth. You’ve probably watched plenty of TV news where the reporter uses a handheld microphone. Whether you have left the Yeti on the included desktop stand, or attached it to a mic stand, you should understand how to angle the mic. So, in this section, I’ll explain the correct way to speak into your microphone. In do that, you can avoid picking up the sound of your keyboard while clearly picking up the sound of your voice.ĬARDIOID MIC PATTERN: The best microphone polar pattern for most streaming, podcasting, vlogging, singing, or recording a voiceover.Īlthough the Blue Yeti USB microphone is simple to use, you do need to understand that not all microphones work and are used in the same way. Cardioid Pattern: The symbol representing it and the typical area of sensitivity on a Blue Yetiīy choosing the Yeti’s cardioid pattern you can control the direction from which sound is picked up. Sound from the sides is partly rejected and sound from the rear of the microphone is mostly rejected. The reason you would use the cardioid pattern is that it makes the microphone pick up sound mainly from directly in front of the mic. This is the pattern you should use for streaming, podcasting, vlogging, singing, or recording a voiceover. The microphone pattern that you will probably find to be the most useful will be Cardioid. Your Blue Yeti has several modes or polar patterns that determine from which direction the mic will accept sound. The correct recording mode for streaming, podcasting, and vlogging Use a suspension boom mic arm stand with shock mount.Isolate your keyboard and Yeti from the desktop.The correct mouth to microphone distance.Correct positioning of the Yeti to minimum keyboard noise.The correct recording mode for streaming, podcasting, and vlogging.
