Arthur B. Funky Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 The Blue Yeti has a 'round table' setting ... set it to that, with the gain right up. Â Having 2 or more mics will most likely entail a small mixer, jack to XLR cables, desktop mic stands, etc. Â More cost, a bit of a kerfuffle. Â Windows will only cope with one USB mic at a time hooking the active record channel, y'see. Â A mixer would sound good if properly set up & recorded from the 'booth' channel into an uncompressed format (WAV or FLAC) ... I use a Linux box for that kind of thing (Ubuntu, with IDJC) & happy to advise if you want. Â My main playout system is, unbelieveably WinXP with SAM Broadcaster (Firebird database), & then the streamer/recorder is a the Linux system. Â EDIT: Â if you are able, eBay a video conferencing 'round table' mic with an XLR connector (Polycom comes to mind, but there are others of course, then you can get a C-Media USB - XLR (M) connector from Maplin). Â I'll dig mine out & take a pic later ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted March 30, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 I think I'm going to opt for the blue yeti for now, saves on the outlay til we see if this becomes a regular gig. If it does I'm going to upgrade my hardware later on, but for now I think that seems the best option.  Thanks Arthur, if ok I might hit you up for some more advice in the future.
