WHAT’S IN THE BOX

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

DIMENSIONS

FEATURES

• The Iconic and Iconic Blue Broadcast Sound
  Record the iconic Blue broadcast sound with an extraordinary level of presence and precision, making it ideal for use in podcasting, YouTube productions, game streaming, Skype chats, and voice-over work.

• Several Different Pickup Patterns
  While the cardioid pattern is ideal for recording and streaming, the omnidirectional pattern will make you feel as though you are “in the room” when participating in conference calls.

• Monitoring with No Delay or Latency
  You may make sure that you sound fantastic before you perform live by using the built-in headphone output and volume control to carefully listen to your recordings in real-time and adjust the volume as necessary.

• Controls located on board
  You should be able to quickly alter the level of your headphones, mute your microphone, and change the pickup pattern so that you can focus on your performance.

• Streaming and Professional Recording Services
  Your podcast, video, or gaming stream is deserving of the production value you can give it. When you use Yeti Nano, your voice will always come through strong and unmistakably.

• Both Space-Saving and Stunning in Appearance
  Yeti Nano is small enough to fit on any desktop and attractive enough to look good on camera, offering a professional streaming aesthetic while occupying very little screen space.

• App for Blue Sherpa as a Companion
  Yeti Nano gives you extensive control over your sound, allowing you to fine- tune it. Directly from your desktop, you may adjust the gain of your microphone, the level of your headphones, your monitoring preferences, and the pickup pattern you want.

• On both Mac and PC, Plug ‘N Play is available.
  You can get started recording right away on both a Mac and a PC because there is no need for additional drivers.

• Several Different Pickup Patterns
  Yeti Nano provides you with flexibility by offering two different modes for its pickup pattern, allowing you to record a single source or many sources at the same time, depending on your recording needs. To choose the design that works best for your undertaking, you need only hit the button labeled “pattern selection.”

• The Cardioid Rhythm
  Ideal for single-host podcasts, game streaming, Skype calls, vocal performances, voiceovers, and instrument recordings. In cardioid mode, the microphone only picks up the sounds that are directly in front of it, which results in a sound that is fuller and more robust.

• In every direction at once
  Record or transmit sound from all directions evenly using the microphone. When you want to have a conference call with numerous participants in the same room, or when you want to have a multi-person interview on a podcast, the optimum time to use omnidirectional mode is in those situations.

• Lovely as seen on camera
  Yeti Nano has a diverse range of color selections that can be matched to the aesthetic of your on-camera presentation.
