Featuring Blue's innovative tri-capsule array, the Yeti lets you record with four unique patterns-- stereo, cardioid, omnidirectional, and bidirectional--offering you recording possibilities that usually require multiple microphones. Informed by Blue's illustrious studio legacy, Yeti delivers dramatic, professional sound for podcasting, voiceover, Skype/VoIP, game streaming, vocals and instruments. There are no drivers to install--simply plug the Yeti into your PC or Mac, load up your favorite recording software, and record something amazing. GETTING STARTED WITH YETI After unpacking your Yeti, rotate the microphone 180 degrees so that the Blue logo and headphone volume control are facing you. Tighten the set-screws on the left and right of the base after adjusting the microphone to your desired angle. Connect Yeti to your computer with the supplied USB cable--the LED just above the Blue logo will glow red, indicating power has reached the mic. Yeti is a side-address microphone, which means you should speak, sing, and play into the side of the microphone with the Blue logo facing the sound source, not the top of the microphone. Now you can start recording and streaming in stunning audio quality. 2 SOFTWARE SETUP Whatever your favorite software is--Audacity, Garageband, iMovie, Ableton, Skype, you name it--Yeti will produce amazing results. Simply plug the mic into your Mac or PC, select Yeti as your recording input within your selected software, and start recording--no drivers required. It's that easy.
