How to fix Blue Yeti Microphone No Volume or Sound

I've seen many complaints of plugging the Blue Yeti mic only to have no playback sound. This walks you through the fix. This can happen everytime you unplug the mic. If this video fails you, try another cable!

I freaked out a little bit just having spent a bunch of money on this mic today to only go playback a test and have no sound come out - your video helped me figure it out on my iMac- it was the output source of course - thanks!

Man I have watched so many videos to try and fix this issue since I got this yeti over a year ago! I finally decided to try again and your video is what solved my problem. short sweet and to the point. I appreciate this so

Your fix worked! In a Zoom session, when I plugged in my Yeti X microphone, others would hear when I played an MP3 file but I could not hear it on my laptop. When I went into Windows and deselected the Yeti mic as a Default speaker as you describe, the Zoom audio started working properly. Thanks, again!

Thank you!!! I knew it was easy but didn’t know how! I’m on windows 10. Logitech told me to buy a speaker! 😂 ive spent so much money on random accessories when I should’ve watched your video first. All these other youtubers never said anything about this. This is the best video THANK YOU!

Hi
I bought Blue yeti pro 2 years back, I just checked whether it was working and didn't used it after for a longtime for some reasons
But once I took it out for using it from now, it made me upset
It gets connected with the powerbank but not with my phone
Thinking it might be the pblm of the OTG, I checked it with the powerbank.
It responds with the led light but I couldn't hear anything through my earphones

Note: While opening its box after a long time as I said before, I could see some ants around it,
Is that a pblm

Also if you hold down the button on the back it mutes and unmutes the monitoring of the mic. FYI!

I was ready to throw the mic away! It was embarrassing and frustrating because everyone could hear but me unless I wore a crazy looking headset. Thanks for the save!

[deadmandreams]

Thanks. I fixed this before but couldn't remember how till I saw this video lol

[KarlosK]

I have my microphone plugged into my PC, then my headset plugged into the mic. I can hear discord but my game volume plays through my monitors speakers. Do you have a fix for this?

[Don-dege]

Lmao it wasnt working but it started working right as I clicked on this.

this is the only video that really helped ty

[JoshGRAMBO]

Why does this video have so many dislikes?

This worked instantly. Thank you so much!

Mine is blue yeti blackout the red lights turns in but it doesn’t hear anything I connect it to my phone

[darnocab]

Thanks. You pointed me in the right direction. However when you say "right click this thing" I couldn't see what that thing was. But like I say, it pointed me to open up sound in my control panel and it had the output there set to yeti. So I changed it back to real tech and it did the truck. So thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

[MaryVogt-we]

Absolutely love you. Thank you so much, this fixed it immediately!!!
