The editors didn't like
Plastic knobs detract a little bit of quality from the rest of the Yeti
Mounting screws from the included base to the microphone could be all-metal
Abstract: Now If you’re going to buy one nice mic, why not make it one heck of a mic? I mean, if you have one really nice mic that reproduced sound better than you thought was possible, you wouldn’t want to use any other, right? That’s how the Yeti makes you fe...

Whether you're recording a podcast, an interview, or a concert, the Yeti's THX-certified sound quality, integrated gain control, and four recording modes (including stereo) make it a top choice for a USB microphone.
If you're looking for something subtle and portable, the Yeti is not for you. Plus, the wobbly plastic knobs make us wary about durability.
The Yeti is one of the richest sounding, sonically flexible USB microphones money can buy, but its large size makes it inconvenient for portable applications. Read full review
Sharp, clear recording in all four settings. Stereo setting yields dizzingly dynamic results for podcasting. Bidirectional setting yields audio more intimate than an afternoon in Victoria's Secret.
Gain, headphone volume, and patternselect switches on the mike's body are awkwardly placed — makes them hard to get at when the mike's in its stand. Using hefty mike for field work probably not a wise idea.
Great design, solid and quality construction, Affordable, Great audio quality, Multiple pickup patterns, No drivers required, works on iPad
Requires a boom arm or it's in the way, Very sensible to shocks and pops

Abstract: As someone who has recorded and produced almost 700 podcasts I've seen a lot of microphones which suggest they are fit for this purpose, and while they all work and do a good job, what podcasters need is a great job.The two microphones I've been testing f...
Abstract: The prospect of “getting into audio” is a daunting one. After sifting through loads of conflicting information on gear and best practices, even the most basic setups for podcasters and musicians starts costing, and quickly. Hence, the rise of the plug-and...
