Bench Blue Yeti microphone with frequency response test


I would like to bench the performance of the Blue Yeti microphone to make sure it's good enough for speaker frequency response measurement usage, so I compare it with the high performance microphone, AKG300B(with a amplifier) that I used before. The result is as below,


CK91/Unidirectional/AKG 300B

blue yeti microphone/Unidirectional


The result for the two microphone looks very similar. I measure them in the same room, same environment, same distance to the same speaker.

Conclusion: Blue Yeti microphone is a not bad choice and Blue Yeti microphone is definitely a alternative for my speaker testing usage. usb cable for microphone setup is also much more convenient.

By the way, when doing the recording with the unidirectional mode, The Blue logo indicates the front of the microphone. Otherwise, the result will be different apparently.
