Sorry, let me explain: The software of this device is several years old. It feels a little bit like using Windows XP in 2025. I ordered myself the last time this deal came through, to then discover the restocking fee of B&H. Total fu*k up for me, but whatever makes you happy.

These are great if you know how to use a daw or Audacity (free). Relying on the device software to record may not be ideal, as stated.

But plug this in, load up audacity, and you're good to record anything from mics to synths to guitars.

Usb microphones like Yeti don't need an interface - they just plug into the usb of the PC.

What you may be asking is if there is a program on the PC to record multiple Yetis and the answer is Audacity or the DAW of your choice (I use Bitwig).

Is there an interface you would recommend to be able to record with 2 blue yeti usb mics?

Wow these prices really dropped out after covid. These are nice little boxes to set up for portable recording setups for less techy people imo

Kinda tempted to buy this for my work computer. Then I can hook up one of my condenser mics for video calls 😂

And add some reverb, to sound cool.

Another other recommendations? This looks cool but the comments out of the outdated software makes it unappealing

What software is outdated? Typically the software included with any low end interface is junk.

This is absolutely a great starter device, especially if you're trying to find your way around podcasting or any other computer-based audio things.

The software is significantly dated; as in around half a decade or more. Functionality is limited.

Yep.

And if you outgrow it, that's awesome - jump to something else (I jumped to a Mixcast 4 and I love it; wasn't at all overwhelming to get into for me). And if you hate it, you're out a small sum that is a low learning cost.

Just my nickel. It's easy to hate if you've outgrown stuff. There's plenty of room on the lawn, though.
