Today we’re looking at the new Blue Yeti X, a full featured entry level USB microphone. This iteration introduces Blue Vo!ce support which allows you to add real time processing to your yeti (if you’re using a Windows PC). The Yeti X has a bit more bass to it and a little grittier high end when compared to the original Blue Yeti, the Polar Pattern button is easy to unintentionally press while moving the microphone, and the multifunction dial on the front can be a bit clunky and a bit of a pain to use on the fly.
