Min20 HzMax20 kHz1Maker product pagelogitechg.com/en-us/shop/p/yeti-nano-usb-microphoneRead 15 October 2026Specifications: 20 Hz - 20 kHz under Microphone and Performance. The headphone amplifier block lists 15 Hz - 22 kHz separately, which is not the microphone.2Maker product pagesupport.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/14162305169687-Specifications-Yeti-NanoRead 15 October 2026Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz. The Headphone Amplifier block lists 15Hz - 22kHz separately.

Sensitivity (analog)iAnalog output level for 94 dB SPL at 1 kHz, as published in dBV. For a microphone with a switchable preamp, the bypass value is used. A value published only in mV/Pa is converted as 20 x log10(mV/Pa / 1000) and rounded to one decimal, so 1.6 mV/Pa is -55.9 dBV/Pa. The printed value goes in the source note. A sensitivity in plain dB with no reference, as many low-cost USB microphones print it, is left out.

Not available

Not available

Sensitivity (digital)iDigital output level over USB for 94 dB SPL at 1 kHz. The minimum gain value is used when several are given. The gain setting goes in the source note. On a USB-only microphone use this field only when the maker prints dBFS or ties a dBV value to the USB output, as Shure does for the MV7i. A dBV, dB re 1 V/Pa or mV/Pa value that names no USB output is left out. The printed unit and the gain go in the source note. A value printed for another reference level is converted by the level difference, so -40 dBFS at 80 dB SPL is -26 dBFS at 94 dB SPL. The printed value goes in the source note.

-7.8dBFS1Maker product pagehyperx.com/products/hyperx-solocast-2-gaming-usb-condenser-microphoneRead 14 October 2026The US page prints -7.8 +/-3 dB (1 V/Pa at 1 kHz).

Max SPLiHighest sound pressure level at the source's distortion limit. The THD level and output path go in the source note. The value without a clipping protection mode such as Clipguard is used when both are given. The value with the pad off is used. When the maker lists several preamp loads, the highest load is used. The load goes in the source note. On a USB microphone that prints values per gain setting, the minimum gain value is used, as for sensitivity.

120dB SPL1Maker product pagelogitechg.com/en-us/shop/p/yeti-nano-usb-microphoneRead 15 October 2026Specifications: Max SPL 120 dB (THD: 0.5% 1 kHz). The older quick start guide (rev D) prints 110 dB with no distortion level, so the two maker documents differ. The current store page and the current support specification agree on 120 dB, which is stored.2Maker product pagesupport.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/14162305169687-Specifications-Yeti-NanoRead 15 October 2026Max SPL: 120dB (THD: 0.5% 1kHz). No gain setting is given. Sensitivity is printed as 4.5mV/Pa (1 kHz), a value in mV/Pa that is not stored. The quick start guide prints -37 dB for 0 dB = 1 V/Pa instead, and it names no USB output, so no sensitivity is stored.

Self-noiseiEquivalent noise level, A-weighted, in dB SPL. Lower is quieter. The analog value is used when analog and digital values are both given. A value in dBV or dBFS is left out. On a USB microphone that prints values per gain setting, the minimum gain value is used, as for max SPL.

There is no gain control on the microphone. Gain is set in the software.

Onboard processingiProcessing inside the microphone, analog or digital, that works without the maker's app running. A maker statement that settings are saved in the microphone counts. Effects that run only in the app on the computer do not count. An expander counts as noise gate. Clip protection such as Clipguard is clip protection. Limiter is only for a limiter the maker lists as its own effect, never both for one feature. Brand names such as APHEX or Clipguard go in the source note. Attenuation pad is a switch that lowers the capsule output, such as -15 dB. Echo is an echo or reverb effect in the microphone. Exciter or bass enhancer covers effects that add harmonics or bass, such as APHEX Aural Exciter and Big Bottom.

Dimensions and weight

2 of 3 differ

Microphone dimensionsiMicrophone body without a stand or a detachable shock mount. A fixed yoke is included. Width is left to right as seen by the speaker, height is bottom to top in normal use and depth is front to back. Orient the microphone as in use on its yoke or stand. Depth is the direction it points at the speaker, height is up and width is across. An upright side-address microphone has its length as height. An end-address microphone has its length as depth, also when it is held in the hand. A round microphone with only a length and a diameter uses the diameter for the other two sides. The source note states the mapping.
