Four-capsule condenser array

The Blue Yeti X uses a custom four-capsule condenser array to capture broadcast-quality audio with greater focus and clarity. It is built for gamers, streamers, podcasters and YouTube creators who need professional-level sound on PC or Mac. The microphone connects via USB for immediate plug-and-play operation without an audio interface.

11-segment LED metering

High-res LED metering with 11 segments lets you visualise your voice level at a glance so you can adjust gain before clipping occurs. The multi-function smart knob controls headphone volume, mic gain, blend and mute for real-time monitoring. Four pickup patterns — cardioid, omni, bi-directional and stereo — give flexibility for solo or group recording.

USB 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0 compatibility

The microphone works with USB 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0 ports on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10 as well as macOS 10.10 or higher. Blue VO!CE broadcast vocal effects require the Logitech G HUB or Blue Sherpa software, which must be downloaded separately. Buyers who need XLR connectivity or hardware DSP without a computer should consider a different solution.

How can I confirm the Blue Yeti X is picking up my voice at the right level once I plug it in?

The 11-segment high-res LED meter on the microphone shows your voice level in real time so you can see instantly if it is too high or too low.
