I know, I know, I just told you about all the settings for having multiple people…Īnd yes, you can use those if you’d like but if you want top-notch quality for your podcast, have one microphone per person, just throwing it out there. Or if you have a few people, the ideal way is to have one microphone per person. This is perfect for one person recording a podcast. It makes the main part of the mic very sensitive to sound and tries to block any sound from being recorded from the other sides of the mic. This is THE setting that you should be using for your podcast. Not the best mode for podcasting, unless you’re trying to record music or specific sounds for your show.įinally, and most importantly, we have the cardioid setting. This uses the left and right sides of the mic to capture wide sounds. It works when there are a few people sitting around the mic, having a group discussion for their podcast.īut be careful, because with this setting the mic will pick up ALL sounds, including any background noise. This is when the Blue Yeti is recording sound from all sides. The next is the omni-directional setting. It’s great for interviews, or podcasts with two people that are sitting across from each other. This is when the Blue Yeti is picking up sounds on two sides of the mic, on opposite sides from the other. The first polar pattern is the bi-directional setting. (Making it even more worth it, by the way!) The Blue Yeti offers four different polar patterns so that your mic can be used for every situation. What are the polar patterns of the Blue Yeti and how can you use them? The Blue Yeti also offers many different polar patterns that you can choose from, depending on how many people you’re recording and where you’re recording.
When first using your Blue Yeti mic, I recommend starting with the gain as low as possible, where your voice is still easy to hear, but where you won’t be picking up excess noise.ĭo some test runs before you start your actual recording so that you can find the perfect setting.
So for example, if you have the gain set high, it means that it will pick up more (and sometimes unwanted) sounds, and if you have it low, not so much… The gain is the level at which your mic is recording. You can also get a special adapter for your iPhone or iPad that allows you to record directly there! 📱Īnother feature that is super helpful is that you can adjust the gain of your mic directly from the Blue Yeti. It requires no extra equipment, you can simply plug it right into your computer.

The Blue Yeti is great for podcasting, especially if you’re just starting out and don’t have the budget for a super expensive and highly professional mic at the beginning. Why is the Blue Yeti a good podcasting mic?
