I did buy a Samson to try before returning it and getting the Yeti, but the Samson had a bad cardiod switch that seemed to be shorting out and sending static through the output. My plugging it into the computer was merely a troubleshooting step to compare results, but it definitely should produce monitoring sound straight from the mic headphone jack. But since upgrading to Windows 10 it has been an absol. What I’m getting from Yeti support is that the mic was built specifically to remove live sound delay because you’re plugging the headphones into the mic itself, not through the computer. I purchased a second hand Yeti Blue Microphone a few years back that worked effortlessly in Windows 7. When I hit Record in Audacity, with the settings you see in my screenshot and the headphones plugged directly into the Yeti, no sound comes through the headphones at all. For some reason, when I record sound through the Yeti on the Sound Recorder or any other sound app, it sounds really poor. What I mean is that I’m doing a voiceover, so at the moment I don’t have any rhythm or guide tracks. I have a Blue Yeti X microphone, and I am running Windows 11 on a HP Pavillion with an Intel Core i7. Try switching Audacity > Devices > Recording between stereo and mono. You should be using the cardioid pattern for the Yeti and I think that produces a mono show. Yet, I’m not hearing anything for playback when I record. Everything is completely disabled except for Blue Yeti. Attached are screenshots of my audio driver settings. Select Search automatically for updated driver software. Your Blue Mic driver might have a yellow exclamation mark. If you have a customized machine, please contact the manufacturer for driver updates. Their recommendation is to disable Software Playthrough, but when I do I get nothing. This updates the sound drivers on your computer. After it all comes back up again and settles down (and Skype is still gone), start Audacity, make sure Edit > Preferences > Devices are set for Yeti Record and Play, and Record > Overdub is selected, not Playthrough. But then, even when plugged directly into the Blue Yeti for output, I get a 1/2 second delay. After you do that, close Audacity and restart the machine from power off. Close Skype – really close it, not just put it to sleep. Windows has a nasty habit of unpredictably scrambling USB audio services. The pass through the computer is what causes the delays.Ĭonveniently enough, the download Blue instructions resist copy and would so remove completely any USB audio devices except the Yeti. About 3 days ago its volume intake dipped so low when I booted up that discord wasn’t picking me up at all and when I tried audacity it was hardly making noticeable sounds. It has worked perfectly fine with no problems at all. This suggests that you will never be able to reduce live sound delay. So I have had my blue yeti since November of 2017. I’m discouraged that you seem to need to control the Yeti headphone mix by using Windows controls and not knobs on the microphone. At the beginning you said you couldn’t hear yourself when you recorded and that suggests you can’t hear the rhythm or guide track while you overdub. I’m not hearing anything for playback when I record.
