Blue Yeti Pro Question

[Deyarn]

I was wondering, could I plug the USB cable from the Blue Yeti Pro into a female USB to male 3.5mm audio jack connector and plug it into the audio jack port on my sound card? Would that work or not? Because I think it needs to be plugged into a USB port for the power but maybe the 3.5mm audio jack port would be suffice? Thanks!

It does need to be plugged into a USB port for power and audio transfer so I don't think just a 3.5mm jack would provide enough.

It won't work, at least because your 3.5 jack is output, and mic should be plugged into the input. It also uses sort of 'internal soundcard', so nope.

Wait you spent $230 on a USB Mic?

If you want to do this should've gone XLR.

audio jacks don't provide power also the 3.5 mm jack on the yeti is so you can hear your self for the yeti pro you need to use the xlr to get sound off it and the usb to power it

Can I use XLR to 3.5mm jack connector for it with the usb to usb cable to a usb port for power? Is this retarded or no?

Im pretty sure Yeti pro has no XLr support so no.

It does.

So would it work?

Don't think so. It has a ADC in the microphone as it is USB. Unless its designed to be able to bypass that I'd say it's unlikely to work.
