Know before you buy
No, both devices are plug-and-play. You can simply connect them to your computer's USB ports and they will be recognized immediately by your operating system.
For a solo podcast, you should use the cardioid pattern. It focuses on sound directly in front of the microphone while rejecting noise from the sides and back, ensuring your voice is the primary focus.
Yes, the Blue Yeti features a 3.5mm headphone jack on the bottom. By plugging your headphones directly into the mic, you can monitor your audio with zero latency.
The StreamCam Plus includes a versatile mounting system that fits most monitors, but it also features a standard 1/4-inch thread mount, allowing you to attach it to most camera tripods or boom arms.
Blue VO!CE is a suite of broadcast vocal effects that allows you to apply real-time filters, compression, and noise reduction to your voice. It helps you refine your sound quality and add professional polish to your streams or recordings without needing external hardware.
Because the Yeti is a sensitive condenser microphone, it can pick up vibrations from your desk if you use the included desktop stand. If you notice unwanted noise, mounting the microphone on a boom arm with a shock mount is the most effective way to isolate it.
