Consisting of 11 different LEDs, this lighted meter allows you to see your voice level and determine if it is too high or too low. What you will see are the new indicator lights that sit in a pronounced position toward the front of the microphone. You won’t see the four capsule array since it’s built into the microphone. STEREO MODE: Stereo mode uses both the left and right channels and is ideal for capturing a realistic sound image when there are multiple sound sources in front of the mic.It is ideal for recording or streaming interviews between two people. BIDIRECTIONAL MODE: Bidirectional mode records from both the front and the rear of the microphone.The four capsule array builds on Blue’s Yeti but takes it to the next level. The four capsule array allows you to have four different settings, with each serving a different purpose. The first thing about this microphone that makes it stand out is the four capsule array. Let’s dig into the specifics that set of this microphone apart from the company’s previous microphones, and if I’m honest, all of the other microphones I have reviewed over the years. Also, the Yeti X has an illuminated multi-function smart knob that lets you monitor and adjust your voice level while using it, so you get great recordings the first take. That degree of flexibility is great since, let’s face it, most creative types don’t limit themselves to just one type of content creation. This USB microphone has a brand new four-capsule condenser array that can record clear, focused sound in four different pickup patterns. That’s why Blue describes it as “the Ultimate Mic for Creating and Streaming.” Thankfully, it’s awesomeness is more than skin deep. Without the stand, it is just 1.14 pounds. It measures 4.33″ x 4.80″ x 11.38″ and weighs 2.8 lbs when connected to the included stand. We’ve been discussing starting up the podcast again, and, if we do, I’ll be using the Blue Yeti X. One of us had a Blue Yeti while two others used a Blue Snowball. It’s been a while since we had a regular Gear Diary podcast but, when we did, we all used microphones from Blue.
