The Blue Yeti is a condenser mic, so it picks up a lot of background noise.
Going the dynamic mic route can end up costing a bit more, but worth it in my opinion. Unless you have a very quiet environment and don’t need to type on a keyboard or click a mouse while on calls.
- kstrauser 2y agoThat hasn't been my experience at all, especially when set for cardioid. I use to ask diligently about whether my coworkers could hear me type, or my kids yelling from another room, etc., and they couldn't. It does a surprisingly good job of not picking up the trucks leaving from fire department literally across the street from my house.
- sevg 2y agoI have a feeling this is likely due to noise suppression in the video call platform. Possibly Jitsi doesn’t do it as well as Zoom or Google Meet, so my experience on Jitsi was a night and day improvement switching from Blue Yeti (cardioid mode) to a dynamic mic.
- kstrauser 2y agoFair enough. Zoom seems to be alright at that.
