And record in comfort with Yeti’s side-address operation—just speak, sing or play into the Yeti on the same side as the Blue logo to capture pro sound. The Yeti is a side-address microphone. A side-address microphone accepts sound from an angle perpendicular to the mic—as opposed to a front-address mic, which accepts sound from the “end. You probably will now be able to start using your Blue Yeti as your sound input in whatever app you’re going to run, such as Audacity, Adobe Audition, or Zoom. Setting your Blue Yeti as the default audio input device. Once the sample rate for both speaker (output device) and microphone (input device) have been changed to the same value, go back to Audition, you should be able to start recording sound now. Windows 10 also provides us the audio recording software, the Voice Recorder, which you can use to record audios and music in Windows 10 without any fee.

Recently I have been looking for a way to reduce the background noise my microphone produces. I own a Blue Yeti Microphone mounted on a RODE Arm Stand and I like to keep my microphone fairly far away so its not in my face and doesn’t distract me while I record audio or play video games.
However, at this distance, the microphone unfortunately picks up a lot of background noise including computer fans, outside noises and even small things like picking up/putting down a cup of water.
Part of the Solution
To solve this I found a wonderful video by SaaiTV linked below. I have built onto this solution to make it better but the first thing you should do is follow the Youtube video tutorial and come back here to continue. Keep in mind I am using Adobe Audition CS6 and would recommend you use the same version (it will help later on in this tutorial).
The Problem
If you followed the instructions in the video and are happy with the result, you may want to keep the noise reduction effect so its always on. For recording audio and small tasks, you can simply run Adobe Audition and open your saved session and then close it when you are done. If this is all you want to do then this post won’t help you.
However, if you want to keep the noise reduction effect 24/7 so you can take advantage of it all the time, I will tell you how to run Adobe Audition when your computers boots up in the background so its out of the way.
Rest of the Solution
When you run Adobe Audition in the background keep in mind it will always be running. On my machine (which is quite good), it used 150MB of RAM and 1-3% CPU constantly.

This is no issue for me at all but might reduce performance significantly on other machines.

Now, the first thing you want to do is download a program called AutoHotKey from https://autohotkey.com/
Once installed, remember the full path to the AutoHotkey.exe executable. We will need it later.
In my case, the full path is:
Now, pick a folder on your computer to store a new AutoHotKey script file (.ahk file).
In this example I’ll pick:
We are going to put a new file here called adobe_audition_microphone.ahk. Download the file I have prepared and copy and paste it in this folder: Download Link
Now, open this file using Notepad (or your favourite text editor). You should see this text:
2 4 6 8 10 12 | Run,'ADOBE_AUDITION_PATH''SESX_PROFILE_FILE' ; Handle the 'adobe audition' didn't close properly diaglog if it comes up ControlSend,,{enter},ahk_class#32770 ; Hide the window once its open WinHide,ahk_class audition5 ExitApp |
There are a few adjustments you need to make.
Firstly, replace ADOBE_AUDITION_PATH with the path to your Adobe Audition executable. Make sure to keep the quotes around the path intact.
