Hmm, dunno about that. It's not a very user-friendly microphone in that it has multiple modes and settings to adjust, so it's easy to set it up incorrectly. It can definitely sound good, but a lot of the time it doesn't.

If you do go for an XLR mic setup with an audio interface (admittedly just as complicated as the Yeti), a good cheap option is the Behringer XM8500 which is a dynamic microphone that will reject a lot more background noise than a condenser mic. It's something of a Shure SM58 clone, but doesn't require as much gain as the real thing.
