DISC Blue Yeti Pro Studio

Full Description

High-resolution audio fidelity

The Blue Yeti Pro Studio is a premium-quality, versatile studio system designed for recording everything from vocals to instruments. The Yeti Pro Studio microphone is unique in that it features a built-in headphone amplifier that allows you to directly monitor your microphone signal, eliminating the need for an external audio interface. The wide frequency range (20Hz – 20 kHz) ensures you capture every nuance from the source audio in detailed high-resolution, for studio-quality recordings.

The built-in headphone amplifier also boasts an impressive frequency response so you can hear every subtlety while you record. The high-resolution sample rate ranging up to 24-bit/192kHz provides four times more detail than the standard CD resolution. The Yeti Pro also features individual controls for both headphone volume and microphone sensitivity for added convenience.

Capture a variety of sources

The Blue Yeti Pro Studio features three varying pickup patterns that allow you to accommodate a range of recording applications including everything from vocals and instruments to podcasts and voiceovers. The Cardioid mode is ideal for vocal performances, voice-overs, podcasts and instruments, recording sound sources that are placed directly in front of the microphone for a rich and full-bodied sound. The Omnidirectional mode allows you to pick up sound from all around the mic; this is ideal for use as a room/ambience microphone. The Stereo Mode used both the left and right channel to capture a natural and realistic sound image, ideal for recording instruments such as acoustic guitars or choirs. Additionally, the Bidirectional pattern records from the front and rear of the microphone, ideal for recording a duet or an interview between two people.

Handcrafted templates by Grammy award-winning engineers

The Yeti Pro Studio system features a range of custom templates that are handcrafted by Grammy award-winning audio engineers, featuring everything you need for voice, instrument and multi-track recording applications. These specially designed templates minimise the time you spend tweaking parameters and controls to get the sound you require. This allows you to give your vocal takes and instrument recording the pro engineer treatment.
