yeti Blue Yeti making wind noise

[Joonass]

Soo, I have a Blue Yeti microphone. It has worked for about 3 months. Suddenly today I started my computer and the microphone wasn't working right, it made wind noises. I checked the cable it was connected, tried it on other computers and nothing seems to work. What could the problem be?

do you have a something like a dead kitten

or something similar to block out wind and background noise ?

It may also have something to do with the cables not in all the way, because it if a cable isn't in all the way, it sometime will make noise similar to a light bulb hum.

 

 

Edit* if the mic fell over or was bumped or something, it could have  broken the ribbon, condenser etc making it not work so it doesn't pick up vibrations anymore, but this is really unlikely.

This should most likely fix the problem. Mics are like speakers, they suddenly just dont quit working. You have to do a lot to mess up a Mic or Speaker.

Tried everything did not work. The mic picks up voice but it picks the wind noise too.

its most likely just needing something to block it out, It may also needed to be adjusted in settings if there are any so you turn down sensitivity of the mic, so it picks up less noise.

 

You can make a DIY Dead cat with a coat hangar, and a thin sock if you put the sock on it and bend the coat hangar to cover the mic.
