Amazon is now offering the Blue Yeti Nano USB Microphone in Shadow Grey for $69.99 shipped. Regularly $100 directly from Blue and at Best Buy, the Yeti Nano dropped down to $80 at Amazon and elsewhere around the Black Friday deal season last year and is now an additional $10 off. Today’s deal is the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon in over a year in any colorway. The compact version of the full-size and more pricey Yeti variant, it delivers a pair of custom mic capsules with multiple pickup patterns to support various recording situations (intimate solo, whole room discussions, and things of that nature). No latency monitoring via the headphone output and plug and play action on Mac or PC are joined by Blue VO!CE software for “enhanced effects, advanced modulation, and HD audio samples.” More details below.
If the brand name option isn’t important for your needs, check out the Amazon Basics Desktop Mini Condenser Mic. This no frills model will bring direct USB recording to your Mac or PC rig for just over $35 shipped right now. You won’t get the built-in FX, but if you’re just looking for something simple to record with, it is worth a look.
However, if you’re in for something higher-end, the best-in-class Shure USB/XLR mics are still seeing some notable price drops over at Amazon from $224 shipped. On that note, be sure to go hit up our hands-on review of the new PreSonus Dynamic USB mic with built-in FX, which comes in at slightly less and delivers a similar recording experience.
