    Blue Yeti stopped working today.
    « on: July 16, 2014, 04:51:56 PM »
    A couple of days ago my Blue Yeti stopped playing my voice when i talked, i tried fixing it by raising the volume on the microphone. It worked but there was a buzzing sound in the background. But this morning i played some Battlefield 4 and just randomly clicked the mute button on the yeti (to unmute it) just to check if it was working, when it was unmuted it worked just fine. but when i turned off the computer then left it for some time and then came back to play some more BF4 it simply did not work. I have searched the internet far and wide but have got no result. I would appreciate some help :)

    Computer specs:
    AMD FX 6100 six-core processor.
    Nvidia GeForce GTX760
    Windows 7 Home Premium

    You need to specify which Blue Yeti you have.
    This is a USB microphone -Right?
    So, what about using a ordinary microphone?

      I'm using the regular yeti (not the pro) with USB yes.
      I don't really have any other microphone :/

      At a retail electronic store you can get a pair of headphones with a microphone for under $20 in the USA. The sat would have the regular connectors for mic and phone plugs. This kind of mic is good for regular dictation. Good to have extra microphone for testing.
