I would like to start streaming on Twitch while playing and I'm thinking about the Blue Yeti as a professional microphone, what are your thoughts on this? Is it worth the money or is it overhyped?
Or would it be better to buy good quality headphones with a microphone? I'd appreciate any ideas
I like to use a separate mic and headset, but it's really just a personal preference. I like different styles of each and find it difficult to find a perfect match in one headset.
I'm not a Twitch streamer, but I broadcast things regularly for my music class. The Blue Yeti used to be my go-to choice, but I've recently switched to the Shure MV7 because it seems to do better with background noise. I have a busy household with kids and pets, so dealing with background noise is a must for me, unfortunately. Don't hesitate to go with the Blue Yeti, though. It produces crisp audio, and it's a quality microphone at a decent price. It's also durable. I must've knocked the mic off my desk a million times, yet it still performed well.
My oldest son is a Twitch streamer. He mostly streams himself playing Call of Duty and Fortnite. I believe he switches between a Blue Yeti Nano and a Shure SM58. I'll warn you, though, that creating a decent stream is a learning curve. The best mic in the world won't help you if you have slow internet speeds and glitchy software.
Personally, I've been using the FIFINE A6T for almost three years. It has a very nice sound quality; better than some other microphones that I've seen. Although, the build and sturdiness of the stand isn't terrible, but it's not the best. I still recommend checking it out.
