The Blue Mics Yeti is the most advanced and versatile multi-pattern USB Microphone available anywhere. Combining three capsules and four different pattern settings, the Yeti is the ultimate tool for creating amazing recordings, directly to your computer. THX Certified for exceptional sound and performance, the Yeti can capture anything with a clarity & ease unheard of in a USB microphone. The ultimate professional USB Microphone The Yeti features Blue's innovative triple capsule array, allowing for recording in stereo or your choice of three unique patterns, including cardioid, omnidirectional, and bidirectional, giving you recording capabilities usually requiring multiple microphones. The Yeti utilizes a high quality analog-to-digital converter to send incredible audio fidelity directly into your computer, a built-in headphone amplifier for zero-latency monitoring, and simple controls for headphone volume, pattern selection, instant mute, and microphone gain located directly on the microphone. The Yeti's exceptional performance and fidelity have earned it the distinction of being the first THX Certified Microphone, a validation of Yeti's incredibly low distortion, high fidelity, and balanced frequency response. 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. Yeti Microphone Features Proprietary Tri-Capsule Array Three premium 14mm, tuned condenser capsules Mic gain control Four polar patterns: Stereo Cardioid Omni Bidirectional Mute button Master Volume control Zero-latency headphone output with amplifier and volume control USB mini jack Standard threaded stand mount You can quickly select from each of Yeti's four pattern settings (stereo, cardioid, omnidirectional, bidirectional) by simply rotating the pattern selector knob. Stereo The Stereo mode is great for capturing a realistic stereo image. To start, point the microphone at the sound source that you want to record (the 'front' of the microphone is the side of the microphone with the Blue Microphones Logo). Depending on the instrument and/or sound that you want to achieve, place the grill of the microphone anywhere from 2 inches to several feet in front of the sound source. By centering the sound source, you will get equal amounts of signal in both the left and right channels. If you want a little more of the signal in the right channel, move the sound source a little to the right side of the mic (as if one is behind the microphone), and if you want a little more of the signal in the left channel, move the sound source to the left (as if you are behind the microphone). Alternatively, you can record everything as centered as possible, and easily adjust the position when you're mixing the recording. If you want the sound in the right or left channel only, you should try using the cardioid, bidirectional or the omnidirectional setting, and use your software to hard-pan the sound to the left or the right. Cardioid Cardioid is the most commonly used mode and can be useful in most any situation. If you are recording vocals, a podcast, or a voiceover, cardioid is likely your best choice. When recording in cardioid, sound directly in front of the microphone is picked up while the sound at the rear and sides of the microphone is not picked up. Therefore, you will want to arrange the source directly in front of the microphone. Cardioid will deliver the most direct, rich sound, but will not offer as much airiness or presence as the other recording modes. Omnidirectional<

Acoustic Magic Voice Tracker Array Microphone The Acoustic Magic Voice Tracker Array Microphone provides users with a unique microphone that automatically locates and electronically steers towards the talker. Unlike traditional "fixed" microphones, users do not have to stay in one position while speaking; users are free to lean backwards, sideways or even move around without the fear of their voice being lost by the receiver. Not only ideal for individual use, the Acoustic Magic Voice is great for teleconferencing as the microphone rapidly steers to the individual participants. This easy to use microphone utilizes Location Dependent Squelch (LDSTM) to de-sensitize the microphone to sounds coming from pre-selected directions. A digital signal processor creates a listening beam that only focuses on the actual talker and spatially filters all other noises. The proprietary noise reduction algorithms filter out the background noise and reverberations to provide the listener on the other end with a clear and crisp sound, free of unwanted noise. Durable and reliable, this array microphone does not have any moving parts and requires no installation software; simply plug it into your computer's sound card and a wall outlet and begin teleconferencing or speaking with loved ones comfortably.

It is designed to work over a wide variety of applications from remote field recording to desktop/studio tracking. Each of the two low noise input channels has up to 48 dB of clean gain with signal present and clip LED indicators. Inputs can be either XLR balanced or 1/4-inch TRS.

The monitor mix is also routed to the 1/4-inch TRS balanced outputs. This lets you use the 1/4-inch outputs as either preamplifier outputs or as the monitor feed to your powered monitors. The USB interface is fully compliant with the USB 1.1 specification and uses USB adaptive mode for playback and USB asynchronous mode for record. It will work with the USB audio device drivers built into Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP/V ista and Apple OS9.1/OSX computers with native USB support. No special drivers are needed.
