And it's not bad, except I'm getting tix and pops on the USB port. Also it makes the sound rather nasal. I don't like listen to myself. When I play back the files. Surely they must have something better than that. I'm kinda curious about the Sennheiser microphones headsets. I have a Sennheiser PX 100 stereo headphone, and they just recently came out with a model that has a microphone for I phones. Now, I don't know if that is compatible with computers, but the fact that they make that sort of headset is a very reasonable price is encouraging. I know that Bluetooth is not good for voice recognition because of dropouts. There are lots of solutions on the market now just hoping to get some good recommendations. I will investigate the yeti. I wonder how good the handling noise is.
