Out of all the comparison videos I've seen on RUclips, I think this one as the best. The different types of acoustic style provide many conditions to test the mics under. Also your playing is really good! :)
thank you for this excellent video! it completely helped me with this dillema. I am going for the AT2020. maybe the blue is ok or better for voice but I need some recording for instruments as well
just listening through my macbooks speakers, it seems like the AT2020 is the better choice. for fingerpicking, the Yeti has slightly more crisp high end, which isn't necessarily a good thing. For strumming, both are pretty balanced, although I noticed the Yeti was a little bit warmer, but it also sounded muffled. So the Yeti is really just about if you like the sound. The AT2020 seems to be slightly flatter and more versatile. If you're not sure what to go for, get the AT2020. If you really like the feel of the Yeti, get the Yeti. I'm purchasing the XLR version of the AT2020 because it just sounds that much more beautiful.
The at2020 is just better. I had 2 yeti mics over 3 years and couldnt get a decent recording on them be it a 200 or 2000$ acoustic...just muddy, muffled, not crips or lively at all...
Hi! I have a couple of questions about the AT2020 usb. Which percentage of input were you using? Do you hear some background noise or a "hisss" sound if the input is too high? Also at which distance were you playing from the microphone? And for this particular recording did you use any editing, like EQ, compression or noise reduction? (Maybe it was more than a couple of questions :P). Great playing by the way!
Hi, it is a nice video!!! I have a question that did you connect the microphone direct to the computer or did you use other devices to be a medium? Thanks a lot. Great video
Sorry I recorded this video a year ago and I had really forgot the recording setting at that time. I thought maybe I set the gain level higher when I recorded with the YETI. It's hard to set them with the same gain level, because the AT2020 gain level could only be adjusted by the recording software. However, the YETI gain level could be adjusted by the mic itself and the recording software. I had used the AT2020 and the YETI for one year. I thought the YETI would capture more bass sound.
From a musician's point of view, which one would you recommend? It's so hard to choose because most videos show the gamer/ podcaster's POV. Thanks in advance.
文學Wen Hsueh and Datte! Thank you! I just bought the AT2020 USB plus. I also asked my uncle who is a recording engineer and he said the same thing. He also said that they also use audio technica equipment in the studio so he trusts the brand.

The Yeti has a warm sound. I love it. What do you guys think?

Great playing and music. I like the AT2020 better when you strummed.
Hi. Can I ask you what's the song you're playing in the last part of the video? Fingerstyle part
Here is the song

Thank you so much. Have a nice day

the microphone was connected to ipad
文學您好,謝謝你分享AT2020和Blue Yeti的錄音效果,
我還有些問題想問,像是您在使用上會不會覺得AT2020和blue Yeti比起來 比較能少收到環境雜音(ex車子路過聲..)
我聽起來好像是AT2020比較不會有這樣的問題? 但因為不曉得錄得當下有沒有車經過...
另外就是AT2020如果是自彈自唱,一樣擺在12琴格的位置,聲音會不會相對很小呢?
因為知道blue yeti收音比較好,比較不會有邊唱時收不到人聲的問題,但環境雜音好像容易收到很多
不曉得AT2020會不會有這樣的情況呢?
最近也想入手mic,來錄自彈自唱希望能請你幫我解答:D

你會覺得有差別可能是因為Blue yeti 的收音方式有四種
1.Cardioid: 收音主要收正對麥克風的聲音
2.Stereo: 收音範圍是前方,左方,右方
3.Bidirectional:收音收前方和後方
4.Omnidirectional:收所有範圍的聲音
但AT2020就只有cardioid一種收音方式
我有用Blue yeti 的cardioid和AT2020兩個一起同步錄音過
兩者聽起來都是有車子經過的聲音,而大小差不多
(我房間靠路邊,門窗緊閉還是會有車聲)
所以要解決車聲最好的方法還是改善錄音環境
+Sean Tseng
再來關於你說怕會不會收不到人聲的部分
只要把麥克風正對到你的嘴巴和吉他之間就可以了
如果覺得人聲太小就把麥克風的角度轉比較接近嘴巴
吉他聲太小就把麥克風轉向吉他 自己去找尋平衡
+文學Wen Hsueh
感謝您的解答!這樣感覺除了收音模式,
兩款效果似乎差不多,應該都還是只用Cardioid Mode居多
也許會選擇AT2020 :D
Hi! There is a lot of noise when you are using the YETI. Is the mic noisy or have you messed up the recording?
Its hard to tell witch mic is the best.
Sorry I recorded this video a year ago and I had really forgot the recording setting at that time.
I thought maybe I set the gain level higher when I recorded with the YETI.
It's hard to set them with the same gain level, because the AT2020 gain level could only be adjusted by the recording software. However, the YETI gain level could be adjusted by the mic itself and the recording software.

请问老师,USB麦克风是怎么连接到iPad的?还有老师用的什么录音软件?grageband么?
加上轉接頭就可以 用GarageBand
Wen吉他誌 谢谢🙏
Wen吉他誌 老师,再请教一下,录音的效果受平板影响么?比如说用同样的麦克风,小米平板和iPad录出来的效果一样么?

Rachelle Vasquez imo the at2020 sounds more natural and the yeti sounds a bit muffled as if it's forcing an effect
I think the AT2020 is better when recording acoustic guitar. The Yeti has too many boost to bass and its high pitch sounds too sharp.
文學Wen Hsueh and Datte! Thank you! I just bought the AT2020 USB plus. I also asked my uncle who is a recording engineer and he said the same thing. He also said that they also use audio technica equipment in the studio so he trusts the brand.
Rachelle Vasquez awesome! Good luck with the new mic. I plan on getting the same one in about two weeks :)
