MAONO AU-PM421 VS Blue Yeti USB Condenser Microphone Comparison and Review 2021

Here is a review and comparison of the MAONO AU-PM421 vs the Blue Yeti to find out which condenser microphone kit is better. The microphones are both affordable plug and play usb condenser microphones. However the PM421 is more of a studio microphone bundle kit, and includes a boom arm stand that clamps onto your desk. Let me know what you think!

This was really helpful as I was debating which of these two mics to get. You helped me decide to get the Maono. I found the sound better for voice which is what I’m looking for. What you called “muffled” I found to be a warmer sound which is exactly what I was aiming for in a new mic. Thanks for the review!

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Awesome! Glad I could help, Joe. Enjoy your new mic!

[@factwithmrk]

Which voice quality is better??

[@1littlecoder]

Wonderful review, you nailed all the practical elements! Great work!

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you like the video🙌

[@bisheswarsaha5605]

Was these guitar audios edited????? Or it was totally raw sound....if it was edited??then what u did in terms of editing?the audio

[@albher24bohol]

For a non-professional use, I think the Maono is already great especially for its price. Thanks!

[@TobiasHolenstein]

It really is! No problem!

[@wh1s948]

Nice video man. Very good comparison with details.

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thanks so much!

[@sarihaddu]

Maono 422 is available now, is it better than blue yeti for youtube reviews?

[@markdeluna21]

Hello! Such a nice review! Since you've also reviewed the FIFINE K690, can I ask which one do you recommend between it and the MAONO AU-PM421? I'm about to purchase one and I think I need your help haha. Thanks!

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thank you! and that is a good question! I think I would personally prefer the PM421

[@markdeluna21]

@@TobiasHolenstein Wow! I might go for the Maono now considering it has included boom mic arm and some accesories. Thanks!

[@paulo.emmanuel]

Can au-pm421 be use to making professional vocal studio recording?

[@eratchirographumdecretihan5756]

Just behind you in the video I can see a pretty good collection of condenser mics .....OMG ..... it's really awesome

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thank you! I have quite a few now 😅

[@codingbyanas]

What do you guys think of buying PM422 for udemy course creation or youtube course creation or tutorial videos?

[@SunnyLaraJr.]

Great review man 💪🏻

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thanks so much! 🙌

[@KeannaOrtiz]

this is such a nice review. can you also do another one comparing audio technica and maono mics? will appreciate it a lot 🤗

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thank you Keanna! So the only Audio Technica mic I have is the AT4040. Is that a mic that you would like to see a comparison video on?

[@KeannaOrtiz]

@@TobiasHolenstein i was thinking of audio technica at2020, but what you currently have would be nice and helpful to my decision-making as well. any model of both brands would do. 🤗 thank you for responding!

[@ImFafe]

hey man can you do maono AU-PM461TR usb VS tonor tc-777, love the videos

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Great suggestion! I will do that!

[@TaxEvasionUS]

I needed a cheap microphone that sounded good or equivalent to the Blue Yeti for under $100, and I found this 421 for $60 so I got it, thank you!

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Awesome! Glad I could help. Enjoy your new mic!

[@_rahulsharma_]

Hey, been watching your videos all day. Just ordered pm421. I am not much of an audio expert, would you mind helping me setting up my audio for streaming? That would really helpful🔉🙏

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Awesome! Enjoy your new mic. I honestly don't know too much about streaming yet, but I downloaded OBS a while ago and I believe you can set up your mic in there to use while streaming. Once I figure it out for myself I will make a video on this topic in the future

[@43musti]

Is it good?

[@_rahulsharma_]

yes@@43musti

[@mr_pamas6273]

something confusing is in the video the amazon link shows PM422 and your review unit is PM421 right ? so is there chance that stand has better quality on PM422 ? thanks for great review

[@TobiasHolenstein]

I just double checked the link and it is still showing the PM421 for me. As for the stand that comes with the PM422, I'm pretty sure it comes with the same stand as the PM421 because I have several Maono microphones now and they all seem to come with the same stand

[@mr_pamas6273]

@@TobiasHolenstein i meant the one you are showing in the video say PM422 but nvm . alright man thank you for the headsup

[@francisgabriel15]

Hey tobias! I was wondering if you could do a review on the blue yeti nano and Rode nt usb mini. Im really on the fence :/

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll keep those in mind if I ever get those mics. I've personally never tried either of them out myself, but I've watched reviews by other people and they both seem like pretty solid mics

[@francisgabriel15]

@@TobiasHolenstein thanks tobias! i was just wondering does the headphone port in microphones also a connection from the mic itself to a camera with a headphone jack?

[@TobiasHolenstein]

@@francisgabriel15 That's a good point, I've never tried that before. I'll try it with my Blue Yeti and get back to you

[@francisgabriel15]

@@TobiasHolenstein Thank you so much ive been looking for a way to do my videos without having to sync the audio separately during post

[@TobiasHolenstein]

@@francisgabriel15 Yeah I know what you mean. Are you editing in Premier Pro by any chance? I found out a really fast way to sync audio in Premier

[@lyneicehaynes4922]

I really enjoyed the new blue yeti microphone and I like it.

[@arpitjain24]

Is there a difference between Au-PM420 and Au-PM421 in terms of performance (not features)?

[@TobiasHolenstein]

I'm honestly not sure. I've been wanting to try out the PM420 to find out as well since it looks so similar to the PM421

[@wlkn1375]

Manao sounds better with a warmer sound, it's not muffled, just warm versus the Blue's cold sound.

[@manojkanna504]

Love❤ from India 🇮🇳 , u are awesome bro, you are most underrated utuber, your videos very very useful for who needs to buy a microphone 😄🤗

[@TobiasHolenstein]

Thanks so much bro I appreciate it! I'm glad I am able to help 🙌

[@angelmelody8187]

Fifine k690 vs maono pm421??? Which is best

[@TobiasHolenstein]

I prefer the PM421

[@justice3free]

Blue yeti for guitar is better. But for podcasts not big difference for me. Thx for test.

[@strykerz4670]

Muchas gracias amigo, buenas noches, saludos a tú tía, ya sabes cual ;D

[@TobiasHolenstein]

De nada! Pero no se cual jaja

[@urbanmetal7802]

I am digging the content of this review but i think it should have been an apples to apples comparison, where the other mic should have been something like fifine t669.

[@TobiasHolenstein]

I have some other videos here if you want to check them out where I compare the pm421 to the A04 or the PM401 kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4mnmHSkZtWVprc kzbin.info/www/bejne/epm5l5uIob-gj5o

both sounds same for me 😂 I can't tell any difference

Yeah it can be hard to tell at first haha. Wearing headphones can help though!
