Legendary Features
The legend of the Yeti continues with the most advanced and versatile multi-pattern USB microphone roaming the wild today. The Yeti Pro features tools and recording capabilities usually requiring multiple microphones and devices, all with the simplicity of a plug-and-play USB microphone.
Desktop or Studio, the Possibilities Are Endless
You can quickly select from each of Yeti Pro's four pattern settings (stereo, cardioid, omnidirectional, bidirectional) by simply rotating the pattern selector knob. The chart below shows each pattern's symbol, sound source direction, and suggested recording applications.
Like Having Four Mics in One
The Yeti Pro is like having four mics in one, thanks to its built-in pattern selector. Choose between four polar pattern settings for any home recording application. Select Stereo for capturing a realistic, two-channel stereo image. Cardiod is the most commonly used mode for basic recording and is useful in almost any situation, such as recording vocals, a podcast, voiceover work, and more. Omnidirectional mode is perfect for recording a group of musicians playing at the same time, or recording a conversation between multiple parties around a room such as a conference call. Choose Bidirectional for individual instruments, or for recording an interview with two or more guests.
Its versatile application along with simple plug-and-play functionality makes the Yeti Pro the only desktop microphone you'll ever need.
Stand and Cables Included
The Yeti Pro features a custom base, including a threaded mic stand mount with cable management. A USB cable and a stereo XLR breakout cable are also included in the box.

What Critics Are Saying About the Yeti Pro
"We loved the original Yeti -- especially as a terrific addition to any podcaster's arsenal. For the sequel, Blue Microphones made a great mic even better."
--MacLife
"... the results are quiet, clear audio recordings without the hiss associated with cheaper mics."
--The New York Times
"... if you seek a professional sound or are recording audio--voice or instrumental--that needs the best possible reproduction, then the Yeti Pro is a splendid choice and its ability to also interface with XLR audio equipment makes it a must-have for any digital roadie too."
--Ask Dave Taylor

I'm blown away
I'm a musician and singer/songwriter who has recorded in home studios of varying quality and price for years. I currently have a Pro Tools setup on my main music computer but I bought the Yeti Pro because I wanted an easy, portable solution to use with Garageband on my laptop in order to record parts with other musicians on various songs. I have to confess I was skeptical about the quality of a USB mic, but after using it tonight, I may not ever go back to my analog mics. I recorded vocals and acoustic guitar directly from the mic to my laptop with no preamp and the sound is crisp, clear, and brilliant, and captures the nuance in my vocal performance as well over the complete spectrum.* It's also heavy and solid feeling, and gorgeous to boot. If you don't need a professional recording, this mic is probably pricey and not necessary. But for professional podcasters and particularly recording musicians, I can't recommend this mic more, and it's a steal at this price.

Almost Perfect.
This is the best USB mic ever made. The quality is outstanding. Some people say it doesn't sound any different then the orginal Yeti, and I thought that too when I first used it. But then I went to my Mic settings (on Win 7) and I found out the mic was being limited to 48Hz 16 Bit ! I quickly changed it to 96Hz 24 Bit and the difference hit me. It sounds perfect, the exact way my voice sounds. The only thing I don't like is that you need other software for it to work. So I can't just bring it to all my frinds' house and just plug it in to use it. But it is an exceptional mic. If you have the money I highly recommend it.
UPDATE - 10/31/12
I've had this microphone for about 18 months now, and I couldn't be happier with it. I have noticed a lot of negative reviews complaining about a "gain" issue. Blue recognized this problem and offered replacements. That was a while ago, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with it today. My mic works wonders when the gain is at...
This is a fantastic microphone
A lot of people might look at the price of this microphone and get put off, but they'd make a mistake in doing so. If you are a musician, podcaster, or simply looking for great quality for your vocals, instruments, or whatever sound you want captured, the Blue Yeti Pro will more than do the job.
I'd like to start out by saying the sound quality on this microphone is simply amazing. It easily dwarfs any other USB mic before it, and can even compete with some professional condenser studio mics made by Neumann or Rodes. It's hard to believe this mic is an improvement from the original Yeti, but it is, and by at least 4 times, based on my personal estimation. For $250 this mic can't be beat. You get features in this mic you'd need at least 5 mics for. Oh, and did I mention it's also an audio interface that plays back at a 24-bit, 192khz sampling rate through the headphone port? And it sounds much better than it would on your laptop headphone port. This mic is fantastic and I...
