I think that answers it. the sound quality on these are pretty awesome. I bought a friend a "Audio-Technica AT2020", and the sound quality is astounding]]>Nov 10th 2009 7:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/
Of course, if you already have an XLR mic you like, Blue also makes the Icicle, an XLR-to-USB adaptor. I looked into all of it as I set up my rig for podcasting/interviews, and this company offered a lot of options.]]>Nov 10th 2009 7:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 7:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 8:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 9:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/
It's the same damn thing. The power for the preamp electronics either comes from phantom or it comes from the USB. It doesn't affect the signal quality at all.]]>Dec 16th 2009 12:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/
I'm interested in this new 'no latency direct headphone output', because I do get some comments from people I'm interviewing that they're getting an 'echo' (delay) as we speak if they're monitoring in headphones, obviously the latency rearing its ugly head. All of it can be avoided, of course - if you have your mics, your mixer, a monitoring system and a headphone distribution amp, but that's just not always possible - you show up with your laptop and the USB mics and off you go. The direct monitoring would be convenient.]]>Nov 10th 2009 7:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 8:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 8:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 8:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 9:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Granted, there are many cheaper mics of good quality, but it's not terrible, like Blue et al.]]>Nov 10th 2009 10:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 9:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 9:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 10:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 10:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 10th 2009 11:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.gap-system.org/~history/Curvepics/Cardioid/Cardioid1.gif]]>Nov 11th 2009 4:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/Nov 11th 2009 8:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/10/yeti-usb-condenser-mic-gets-certified-by-thx-fellow-yetis/
