Today I test two very popular USB Condenser Microphones. The beloved (or hated, depending on who you ask) Blue Yeti and the Audio-Technica AT2020usb+. I put these two through some tests to see what they can do. Watch and see which one will suit your needs best!

We all have different opinions and like different things, so if you like one mic more than I do... No worries, get the mic you want! After all it is YOUR AUDIO. I just want to help you out by letting you hear it, and hear the differences in the two before you decide what to spend your hard earned money on!

Disclaimer, it looks like the AT2020usb+ went up in price a little since I reviewed it ($150 instead of $130), but if you are patient you can usually find a good sale on it!
I personally recommend buying microphones used, just make sure they are in good shape and potentially have a return policy!
