The Blue Yeti is notorious for being the go to option for voice broadcasting if a condenser mic with cardioid (among other patterns) functionality is what you need

This is a fancier version of the popular Blue Yeti amateur-quality USB microphone with a much higher price tag ($170 vs $110)

and it still works, but these upgrades make the Yeti X ready for this next level of technology in podcasting, gaming, streaming, etc

On the new Apple Silicon M1-based Macs, the Yeti X straight up does not work with Logitech's software (Whether G Hub or Blue Sherpa)

The line has established itself over a decade of use by people sharing their voice on the internet and beyond, the Yeti X commemorates this history by enhancing the Yeti with improvements including levels monitoring and 24 bit audio

which sounds almost as good as the yeti anyways.12/19/2020 Edit - the Yeti X does not work with the new late 2020 Mackbook Pro running Big Sur.

The Blue Yeti is like the default podcasting microphone for people who want something good and easy to use, without having to mess with audio interfaces or anything that requires special knowledge to use

The Yeti X is very adjustable through the 'Blue Voice' software in the Logitech G HUB

I have a PC with 8 fans sitting next to me, and the Yeti X does a great job of ignoring them all

but I wanted wanted to see if the Yeti X would make a noticeable improvement

The Blue Yeti X is worth only $160

I happened to see that the Yeti X was available and decided to give it a go

I'm not sure the sound quality is any better than the classic Yeti, but my experience has been marred by issues with software and cabling.

Yeti has also ignored my inquiries and requests for warranty.

Google BROKEN USB PORT YETI

The sound quality is top notch, just as good as my old yeti or even better

so i said "to heck with it."long story short, the blue yeti x isnt THAT different honestly, if the blue yeti is an 8/10, then the blue yeti x is a 9/10 in terms of sound quality.the hardware you can get for the x is very convenient, but i doubt many people will touch it for quality control

Once again thank you blue yeti for making another great mic

The Yeti X changed the design so all the knobs are now accessible through

Like the Blackout, the Yeti X is very

I was told Blue Yeti was good by a friend and thank god they told me!

It works as a native USB audio device, but you lose all the audio processing that makes the Yeti X worth more than the classic Yeti

It's better engineered in some ways than even the solid classic Blue Yeti

This Blue Yeti X blows any mic out there in the market asway

Overall, the Blue Yeti X is an improvement over the Blue Yeti Blackout edition, but skip it as a Mac user

n’t understand the fuss about USB A port while most people still have devices with USB A ports
