>>8777252Hating on the blue yeti is a meme by youtubers that buy expensive mics. The one legit criticism that company gets is that their shit is overpriced, but just buy used. But the microphones are perfectly serviceable, and you can make them sound good with proper microphone technique and setup.
I saw Tim Henson, expert guitar guy super duper awesome guitar player expert, speak towards the TOP of a fucking blue yeti like a retard when you have to speak in front of it. Good audio setup is a plus, but proper mic setup and technique is equal if not more important than setting up your expensive mic and mixer. Distance from the mic, room size, gain setting, taking clipping into account, noise gates, etc. What I WOULD post in capslock is that it's not acceptable for a professional to use a headset mic. That one I will say is fucking bad and not acceptable under any circumstance unless you stream exclusively for fun and nothing else. And even then it sounds like shit.
