I will figure out order # information or whatever you might need over the weekend. I managed to find a different mini-usb cable and the problem persists. Let me know so that we can get your Yeti back to recording! Thanks! Would it be possible to see if you can contact this person for the proof of purchase? It would help me see if you are under our manufacturer’s 2 year warranty… in case we need to test your microphone here at our headquarters. Would you be able to try a different USB cable to see if the problem persists?Īlso, I know that you mentioned that you received this Yeti microphone as a gift.

If I can hear what you’re hearing, I may be able to pinpoint what specifically is going on here. Set all of your levels to 50% - both on the microphone itself, and also within the Control Panel/System Preferences of your operating system. Would it be possible to send me an audio sample of what you’re experiencing? An mp3 would be preferable if possible. The mic sounds great when I plug it in to either computer, but when I open up the recording software, a ringing starts in my headphones. In all of these scenarios, I have had the same problem. I have used three different recording programs: windows audio recorder, audacity, and garageband. I have used two different computers (mac and pc) and had the same ringing noise. Not only is it distracting, but it makes the recording very poor.

However, when I open an audio recording program or start recording, there is a very evident ringing sound I cannot get rid of. When I plug the Yeti into my computer, I can hear myself through the headphones and it sounds fantastic. In case anyone is interested the following is my present conversation with a support person: It is looking more like I may just get a new microphone. More than that, I would like to use the microphone for other functions as well, and the noise is distracting enough during the actual recording I don't want it. I have tried some software fixes and they have hurt the quality of the rest of the audio. Don't abbreviate or gloss over any of the numbers. Post a WAV sound clip so we can hear it before we ride off in all directions.Īlso forward the machine type, operating system, Audacity version, etc. Flynwill got the problem to vanish, but he took his device apart to do it.

That and at least one wall-powered hub inserted wall power noise instead of computer noise.Īs I posted under a different thread, if you change anything, the problem will change, but it never goes away. The wall-powered hub idea only works for some performers because many hubs don't offer good isolation between the wall power and the computer power. There is no permanent cure that we found short of taking the Yeti apart which would void the warrantee. Could you describe it as "frying mosquitoes?
