I noticed that when you test the microphones you test them similar to how Bandrew from Podcastage tests mics (Getting further away from the mic, playing an instrument etc.) and I honestly wished more reviewers did that because it really shows how each microphone reacts to certain things. Great video btw, loved it!

Thank you for your video, it helped me and i've decided to buy this awesome RØDE NT-USB !

Thank you so much for this! My conclusion was the exact same as yours. I'm going to go with the Rode.

This is one of the best comparison videos I have seen. I also agree that the RODE is livelier and the clear winner for close recording spoken word projects. Thanks so much!

Excellent comparison demos. The guitar recording is where you can really hear the frequencies the yeti misses.

​@@nogocux I've been using the yeti for 4 years now, and I gotta say it does a fantastic job with the exception of mid EQ. With a bit of EQ tweaking, I was able to get a sound that other people can't tell is from a mere usb mic. when people ask what I recommend though, I go for audio technica or rode. I only got the yeti because 4 years ago it was cheaper.

Wrong... the common ear wants the sound to be extra-bright and extra-bass, when you hear a clean/warm sound you think there are missing frequencies... Noobie mistake.

It's a USB mic of course it's simple. For when you can't carry an XLR setup or you just don't need that stuff - voiceovers, basic recording of instruments. Interesting with the frequency response, I guess with the proximity effect you get the radio announcer sound. The Yeti isn't any better with frequency response, but is different.

OH SHIT!

Best review of these two. Really helped make my decision.

I went for the Yeti when I wanted an upgrade for my audio setup, and can't recommend it enough. However, I will say that it gets a lot more expensive when you add in things like shock mounts (even if you go for the awesome third party Auphonix mount), and pop filters.

I've been wanting to get the blue yeti for a looong time now, but this video has changed my mind completely and I have to thank you because the rode is exactly what I was looking for in terms of sounds from a microphone ! :D very clear, very sharp, perfectly accentuates the highs and mids without obscuring the lows, while the blue yeti sounded just a bit more "scuffed" in that aspect. Right now the blackout blue yeti and the rode are both at 134 euros so it's an easy choice :P Thanks for the video ! It truly helped me !

While playing guitar I've seen the Yeti oriented in the "wrong" direction, kind upward and not parallel to the source like the Rode. On the Blue Yeti expecially this change a lot the sound form and eq. ;)

Listening on my iMac the Robe sounded clearer and crisper. The blue yeti sounded slightly muffled and flat. Good detailed video many thanks.

Yeah man! Thank you sooooo much! Because of this video I will definately buy the Rode microphone.

Thanks for the review I’m getting rode nt usb it’s a bit more but it does have a better sound

Thanks, great review of mics. Way better then all that dudes who think that unpacking of mic is already review:)

I had originally got the blue yeti, returned it and got the rode the difference in quality seems small in the video but in person it was huge I could not get over the way my voice was sounding on the blue, it seemed like it had this high pitch small distortion on the end of each word, and after researching I found it was a common issue, blue also seems to struggle on the customer service side as a company.

yes! great video, made up my mind for me. thanks

Thanks Bud great review

Very GOOD review! Thanks a lot. Please talk more about that upper volume dial. I like to play music in the background while I sing along. I dont know how to add to tracks, what I do is I play music of any singer in surround speakers while I sing along and record. Can you help me with that, and decide which of the 2 mics here? Thank

Since it is cheaper I would go for the blue yeti. I already got one but it wasn't reliable. I used it for less then a month before the mute button stopped working, and the audio quality turned into a staticy, phone voice. I am returning the yeti to get the rode nt usb. I am switching because I don't know how reliable the blue yeti can be, but the rode nt looks much more reliable.

The Rode sounds much better than the Blue Yeti

The Rode definitely sounds better for cardioid recordings, but I like the Yeti for it's price to quality, I think it has a little more bang for buck (in my opinion). Obviously it is more versatile because of the different pickup patterns. But since I only use cardioid, I might get the Rode mic if it becomes cheaper.

Excellent review, nice that you included the distances and even the guitar test! :) I think that the Rode sounded a little warmer/deeper and that's why it was just a little better. But I like the design of the Blue Yeti.

wow, rode is really amazing! thanks for the video!

Hey man good job with the comparison and great job speaking in English

Perfect video! Thanks m8

Agreed about the conclusions!

Great review, testing & guitar playing! Im looking for a Mic & was worried of how bad these mics take up sound from half a metre like you say. Ithink if ill have to go with a USB Mic the Rode NT will take the cake for me, Since it seem to posess alittle better Bass response, but still seem to have this lovely transparency & neutrality :) However i must say it seem when you play that the Yeti has better timbre. As i would use it mostly for talking & tutorials, ithink id pick the Rhode NT. Anyone have any thought on how much more strong volume you would get out of a XLR Mic plugged into an Audio Interface? How big would the differance be? Is it worth it or would you say the a USB Mic is enough keeping it half a metre away?

Very good review thanks. 5 Star!

The Rode is perfect ! Got it yesterday

Excellent comparison vid!

Nice video I liked to see u making test away from the microphone

RODE mic is amaaazing! Listened to a lot of podcasts with different voices and instruments, and I gotta say - amaazing! Can't wait to get the money to buy it, I just love the sound!

Thank you! I think I'll get the Rode mic

Excellent test, you made me make my decision...

I like the usb connection at the bottom of the Rode and it has more highs. I like the Stereo and figure 8 setting on the Yeti and the price. Also the gain can easily be turned up for those 1.5 and 3 meter distances with the Yeti. Sad about the usb connection.

I wasn't expecting to hear any worthwhile difference between the two, my hearing being pretty much shot these days. Yet the NT-USB came out the clear winner sound wise. Only on the furthest away voice test did I consider them roughly equivalent. Still, because of my hearing I'd settle for the Yeti and save some much needed bucks. At any rate, at my age I doubt I'm destined to be the next KZread breakthrough "star." LOL

In the audio test it was obvious that the Rode NT USB mid-high frequencies were clearer, warmer and more natural then the Yeti. When listeling to the guitar, the Yeti was way too bassy for its muddy high frequencies. I clearly felt that the Yeti is a lesser sound quality product overall.

Great info dude. I have the Audio-Technica at2020 USB and the Blue Yeti, now I want the Røde NT-USB. I prefer my at2020 to the Blue Yeti despite it having a lesser degree of features. It has very crisp and natural sound. The Røde sounds fabulous as well.

Hello, thank you for the review! Could you please describe how you have recorded the guitar samples in the video: what program, the microphone level, other settings,as well what type of editing you have done to the guitar recordings. Thank you a lot!!! I don't have much experience with recordings. I have been using the samson cu1 pro so far for my instrumental recordings. But I am not happy with quality, doesn't pick up all the details and sound volume is very low... I am thinking to switch to Rode nt, if I can get such sound quality as in you video, I would be very happy.

Just a question, what mic did u use to do the voice-over? ;)

i have the blue yeti for 6 years now. and i'm about to buy the rode now. i wanted to check a video like this to see if its worth it, because my yeti got some issues over the time and maybe doesnt sound as good as in the first 3 years now. I think for voice/rap recordings the rode is the better choice. In my opinion the sound of the voice is more clear and has more power

very good production quality

I have the Rode Nt-usb I love the sound but I don't like that it doesn't have a gain nob. Great video thanks!

I have a Rode NT 3 bought after reading reviews elsewhere, have not used it yet. Have two other Rode mics a Rode digital 1” condenser Podcaster and, a Rode Stereo X configuration, matched pair, NT 4 My other Mics are Shure Dynamic Mics

Really good video !

Thanks for very good test :) See you!

Awsome video man, looks like its a Rode for me

The Røde sound better for voices. But the yeti has a mute button and sound better for music instruments I think. Btw the prices are nearly identical. Both ca. 140 - 150 Euro (2016, germany)

Which lens are you registering with? They are amazing

From 1 meter away both mics sound exactly alike. But when you started at close range, the The Rode sounded warmer and louder. Listening with Sony 7506 headphones.

what mic do u use talknig on the video?amazing one

For talking and group chatting (podcasts, room band playing) it seems good for it. BUT, what say the singers/vocalists about which is better?

I bought mine online and I'll get it tomorrow hopefully

great video honestly

I would have liked to see the comparison with the nt usb native pop filter and blue yeti without one

Hey please Rode NT USB VS M-AUDIO UBER MIC ! thanks good job boy

Really tough to tell the comparison. When you compared the two mikes with the pop filter on , you used more "plosives' when using the Blue yeti-so it popped alot. Then when you played guitar-each mike had a better resonance in each version-hard to standardize the positioning i recon. I CANT SEE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM.

Are you using a pre amp and what kind? Your Mic sounds like it's going through a really good pre amp and or interface

For the design, I think Blue Yeti is unique and stylish, but Rode NT-USB is just downright SEXY! I own a Yeti, but I'm still planning to get a Rode.

I think the conclusion is: The Rode is a great out the box zero config/editing microphone. The Yeti is a flat microphone so you can shape your sound in editing, this is what makes it versatile. So it depends what you want. Speed of production (Rode) or dynamic application (Blue Yeti). I am going for the Yeti as I have solid audio editing knowledge and i am an idiot for creating more work for myself, otherwise I would take the Rode! Thanks for the video. Great quality and microphone demonstration!
