Not sure if I should leave this slider down lower and control the volume output more with the volume knob on the Yeti or vice versa. The speakers slider doesn’t seem to do anything but the microphone slider seems to control the output of the Yeti as far as using the Yeti with the headphones plugged in. If I double click that and go to “levels” I see a speakers slider setting and a microphone slider setting.

If I go to sound settings in windows and then Sound Control Panel, under the Playback tab it shows my Yeti as “speakers”.

I’m confused about Windows 10 settings as well. Not sure if anything else can be done about this and if the computer fans are related to that swirly sound we hear on test video playback.ĥ. I just bought a longer 6 ft cord so I could put the mic on the opposite end of the desk away from the computer, but it is a loud gaming computer and it still seems to be able to pick up the fan noise. Originally we had the mic close to the computer cause that’s as far as the supplied cord would let it go on the desk. I’m not sure if it’s just the mic picking up the computer fans or what. It’s hard to describe what we are hearing. When I do test videos of me talking in the mic, I often hear a whirl/swirly type sound in the background whenever I’m talking. Looks like they are treated independently and you can have different filters for each one, so I guess it would help to know which one I’m ultimately supposed to be using.Ĥ. Now, what’s confusing is going back to the whole mic/auxillary vs Audio Input Capture thing. I’m honestly not sure what settings are best for these but I’ve used what I’ve seen on the videos. I currently have noise suppression, noise gate, and compressor. I engaged some of the audio filters per a lot of videos I’ve watched. So I’m not sure what proper protocol is here.ģ. 2) I can leave monitor off and increase the gain knob on the yeti and then I can hear my voice come through as I’m playing media.but then I feel like the gain is TOO high and it’s picking up the fan noises from my gaming computer. However this gives my voice an echo effect as if I’m talking down in a pipe/tunnel. The only way I can seem to hear myself is either 1) engaging the Monitor Only option. However, if I go to record a video of me talking over a piece of media, say something playing on YouTube, I can’t really hear myself. If I’m not playing any media, I can generally monitor myself with the headphones plugged into the Yeti, even with the gain all the way down on the yeti knob.

Are you even supposed to have both Audio Input and Mic/Auxiliary set your microphone? I notice when I’m speaking into the mic, the audio meters for both Audio Input and Mic/Auxiliary are moving.īut when I go to advanced audio properties, it looks like volume and monitoring levels can be set independently for each one, so that’s why I’m confused if I should only be using one or the other to capture the audio from the Yeti?Ģ.

But in the OBS settings I have the mic/auxiliary selection set to my Blue Yeti as well. I have my Audio Input capture Source set to my Blue Yeti. I bought a Blue Yeti mic for my son for his birthday, and I have my headphones plugged into the mic so I can direct monitor.ġ. Can you please help a newbie to OBS out? I’ve watched all kinds of videos and I’ve played around with all kinds of settings but I’m still about to pull my hair out trying to find good mic recording settings for OBS.
