Please consider getting a dynamic microphone for your average zoom meeting/streamer/podcaster/video chat needs. Unless you sound treat your room with foam, sound dampening, etc a condenser mic is going to pickup every single background noise. Condenser mics are terrible if you have not treated the room or have any kind of background noise at all. Dynamic mics have natural noise cancelation built in, offer the same sound quality.

I have had multiple yeti, snowballs, etc across the last 20 years and they were amazing and still are amazing mics, but a usb dynamic microphone's quality has come up to the standard of condenser mics but have the improved ability of natural sound cancelation without having to soundproof and treat your room. If you need a condenser mic you probably know, but if you don't know then you will probably want a dynamic mic and will be much happier with one.

I've personally given away so many people the CAD U1 for recording a podcast with me since it's just so cheap and works. They don't even need to wear headphones where zoom meetings with people with a blue yeti end up with technical issues, feedback and etc.

I still love condenser mics and have multiple, but the average person needs a modern usb dynamic mic.

Blue Yeti should be removed from the title.

If everyone started listing "Clone product XXX, just like real product YYY" on Slickdeals, then Slickdeals will become unless.

"Orange oPhone, just like Apple iPhone. Not junk, this knockoff Orange oPhone is meant to compete with a real Apple iPhone."

Some of this is true and some is absolutely false. Many of Behringers clones sound identical. I'm okay with clones of synths from dead inventors. They shouldn't cost thousands 40 years later. Behringer let's average people have $10K of audio equipment. I totally understand the ethics concerns on newer clones.

I use a c1 through a tube preamp and scarlet solo for zoom calls. Nothing fancy, but am by far the best sounding person on org calls.

I have this mic and like it a lot. It feels like a high quality piece of equipment. The only minor complaint I have about it is that it has a strange chemically smell coming out of the grill that can become unpleasant after extended use. I contacted Behringer support about it, and they said that they had no other reports of this, so maybe it is just mine. I was hoping the smell would go away after being out of the packaging for a while, but I've had it for some time now, and it's still there.
Was it your breath?

I guess it could be, except that I smell it only when using this microphone.

Just note the standard price for these is $45, no the inflated "retail" price of $109. Still probably a good bang for your buck mic, it's just not $78 off as SD might lead you to believe.

Just received mine, and at 0 gain and no postprocessing it is LOUD and CRYSTAL CLEAR plugged straight to PC, with zero problem with plosives without a pop filter. My gaming PC has a Noctua iPPC-3000RPM fan AND EVGA CLC 280MM at full blast in the background and using the cardioid pattern the mic does not pick up the noise at all. No discernible difference against the Yeti in YouTube comparative tests. It's also not too heavy for an $8 mic boom arm.

Have you use try Tic Tac Freshmint Breath Mints? Works wonders for me when I had to wear those masks during the pandemic.

This one has boom arm + pop filter + other accessories for $9.99 + free overnight Prime shipping. My old one from 2 years ago also included a shock mount; you might find a similar set for around $10 if you set price limits on Amazon.

Thanks for "like blue yeti" in the title - you set off a bunch of deal alerts for people who couldn't care less about this mic
Yea boo me. Downvoted to oblivion because the original title was keyword spamming - and now has been changed when it made it to front page 🤣
