5 things I did to remove strange noise with Blue Yeti and make it sound 100x better

So I spent hours making and editing a gameplay video but it wasn't until I uploaded the video to the internet that I noticed there is a strange background noise when I'm playing the video. Needless to say I was very upset - hours of work gone for nothing. But then I wanted to fix the noise for next time and had to find out what was causing it. The strange thing was that this noise will only occur when I'm talking (i.e. if I stop talking, there is no noise). This means that it's not a physical background noise that it's picking up around my house, because no noise will stop when I'm talking (i.e. insects don't care if I talk or not). So what is the problem? I did 5 things to fix it. The funny thing is after I did the last thing which I'll talk about in my video, now the sound in my recordings sound ridiculously professional, like I'm talking on radio or something. Imagine if I had figured this out 2 years ago? Hope you guys find this useful.

Another possible factor is that your pc isn't shielded well and there is interference coming from the internal components, affecting the audio signal pathways. On top of that, it's possible to have improper earthing/grounding on your house electrical supply that can cause audio interference. Glad you got it fixed!

hey yeah totally possible! thanks for that!

thanks for the tip, my microphone is not a blue yeti but I applied some of the settings you said and the noise dissipated quite a bit while playing online!

wow that's really cool! thanks for letting me know!

I also have a blue yeti microfon and had the same issues, so I'll follow up this and try myself too! Thanks!

happy to hear that it's helped! I haven't had any problem with it for years! but it was a blessing in disguise :)
