Yeti X unusable on macOS Big Sur on Apple Silicon / M1
已回答
When using Voice Memos, it comes out as a chipmunk every few seconds, here is what it sounds like:

When using Logitech G Hub preview, it comes out as a bass humming sound, with repeats, shortening, and skipping of speech in between the humming. ~3 seconds of recording also turns into about ~18 seconds of playback.

@Robert Mohns, I have both M1 and Intel-based Macs. The biggest fix for me was:
cd /Library/Extensions
sudo rm logi_audio_override.kextFor me, the Yeti X hardware is solid. I just needed to delete the older kext file.
But now, Logitech has updated Logitech G Hub; I installed that on both machines, and that works as well.
On my Intel Mac, on Big Sur 11.5.1, when I launch G hub, it still loops asking me to plugin and unplug my hardware. But the mic works just fine.

MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)
macOS Big Sur Version 11.6
Yeti (Not Yeti X, or Yeti Nano)
Logitech G HUB Version 2021.9.7463
Experiencing input delay issue as well. Oddly, it was working well when first received.
Looks like it'll have to be returned :(
Tried every suggestion posted here, and across other sites. It would seem to be an audio processing issue.

I'm also experiencing input delay issue as well.
I uninstalled G HUB and restarted the mac but the delay continue. Tested the mic with an intel macbook air with usb a port and there is no delay.
Maybe it happens because i'm using a generic usb a to usb c adapter... would an apple adapter solve the issue?

Yeti Nano. M1 Macbook.
I work online, video conferencing. Have had it about 6 months working flawlessly (without installing any drivers) until....
About a month ago, i foolishly installed the Sherpa software. Which then told me i need to install the G-Hub software. This caused all kinds of problems and the mic wouldn't link up with Skype nor Teams nor Zoom.
So, uninstalled all the software, deleted and restarted. Now, in video calls, it will work for about one minute and then dies.
To conclude, don't ever install their software. Originally, the default mac driver worked. You could even unplug and replug without restarting. Now, it's horrific and the hardware has become useless due to amateur Logitech software engineers producing abysmal software and drivers. And not even offering a solution to download/find/return to the original default MacOS driver.
OR, it might be an issue with the firmware update.
I can reset my mac. But it has taken an eternity to setup and register all my software, its licenses, etc.

I agree with Tom above. However, I found that if you use other Logitech products such as the G502 and G915 which requires G Hub, you do not have to uninstall G Hub itself. Just remove the drivers by following the commands below after installing G Hub.
Open Terminal and run
sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/logi_audio_override.kext
sudo rm -rf /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/LogiGamingAudio.*Reboot your machine and the Blue Yeti mic should work again. However, the Mic will not be recognized within G Hub and will throw an error (Please unplug and replug device) which you can ignore.

Thank you, Tom and Carlo Zayne. Your workaround has solved my issue. I'm sad that I don't get to use the filters but happy I'm not rebooting every hour. I will not hold my breath that Logitech will ever fix these issues. These issues are a case of great hardware with lousy software. I suspect this is a company merger issue when it comes down to it.

Same issue here. I need to have my blue Yeti X plugged on start up to make it work correctly.
They made me buy a micro usb > usb cable after buying and USB A to USB C which I thought was faulty. Only to discover that it is an incompatibility with the M1 chip.
The crazy thing is that the mic is detected properly so I had to figure out the hard way that the mic wasn't working properly...

I have the Yeti X and since I bought my Macbook Pro M1 I can't use it. It connects for brief moments and then stops working. In G Hub (updated to version 2022.2.9146) it appears as "connecting", but nothing happens. I have sent multiple requests to Logitech without getting a single satisfactory response.
Do you know of any solutions? Or should I sell the microphone and buy one that supports mac M1s?

macondo1974: I have been using the Yeti Nano with my M1 Macbook for a year. As described above, the work-around is to not use the G Hub software, and (this is very important) delete Logitech's driver, because that is the source of the problem.
As Carlo Zayne says above, these two terminal commands should do it:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/logi_audio_override.kext
sudo rm -rf /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/LogiGamingAudio.*Then reboot.
Some people report that it works best to leave the mic plugged in when you reboot, but on my system I can plug the mic in only when needed. You should be able to select the mic in the MacOS System Preferences when it is plugged in. I use it primarily in Zoom and OSB, and the mic shows up reliably for me in both of those applications.

MB pro 13 inch, M1, 2020 running Monterey, V12.3
the mic is working fine but software will not see it or control it.
Ghub wont see the mic.
Using the following logitech products
MX master m2 mouse, C930e camera, Blue yeti X warcraft ed.
I Have tried re-installing the software. rebooted multiple times, system software uses the mic just fine and all the pgysical controlls work.
Let me know if there is a confirmed and consistent fix on this. I would like to use the software but its not a big deal for me if it does not work.

Just wanted to pop in and say I'm having the same issues. When support reads this, please please please just send a note to whoever is incharge of ignoring users that they ******* suck, and that I regret buying any logitech product, and I will make a note to always vocalize how atrocious your software is.

To be able to click on the Microphone icon and go into the Microphone properties to control gain, headphones' output jack volume, and blend, as well as to be able to check for the firmware update on the Blue Yeti / Yeti X and run the firmware update, you need to unplug the Blue Yeti microphone while Blue Sherpa is running and then plug it back in.
However, the Yeti microphone itself will not function at this point. For the microphone to function, it has to be plugged in before macOS boots up, so once you upgrade the microphone software, you will have to reboot your Mac again. Therefore, it's safe to say that the Blue app functionality is broken in (at least) Ventura on (at least) M1 Mac.
Additionally, please be advised that if you install the Blue app (aka Blue Sherpa), the driver loaded for the Yeti microphone is the Blue-compiled driver for the Intel architecture running in emulation on the M1 Macs. You can see that by running the Activity Monitor app in macOS and doing a search in it for Logi. You will see the driver LogiGamingAudio running and if you enable the column "Kind" in Activity Monitor, you will see that the Kind of this driver is Intel.
Fortunately, the latest version of the Blue (Sherpa) app has an uninstall feature under the Blue menu in the macOS menu bar. If you use this uninstall feature in the Blue app, it will remove itself properly, so after you reboot, you will be using the native macOS CoreAudio driver compiled for the Apple Silicon architecture, which can be seen in the "Kind" column of Activity Monitor when you search for CoreAudio. You can also make sure that the LogiGamingAudio driver is no longer running (by searching for its name). However, with the native macOS CoreAudio driver running in macOS on the M1 Mac, there is no way to update the firmware in the Yeti microphone.
Now, there is another piece of software by Logitech that's called G Hub. G Hub also has a feature for upgrading the firmware in the Yeti microphone, the control of the various features of the Yeti microphone (not available with the physical buttons on the Yeti microphone), and having Blue sound effects that can be overlayed when doing voiceover (but not in real time when streaming). The G Hub app also installs the LogiGamingAudio driver, but it's a newer version of the driver than the version installed by the Blue (Sherpa) app, but it's still a driver compiled for the Intel architecture and running on the M1 platform in emulation. However, after the G Hub app is installed, there are two Yeti input devices and two Yeti output devices listed in macOS, which is extremely confusing to deal with. They also appear to be two independent devices and not just a duplicate listing of the same device. I assume that one of them is loaded by the native Apple CoreAudio driver, while the other one is loaded by the Logitech LogGamingAudio driver (compiled for the Intel architecture running in Rosetta 2 emulation in macOS on Apple Silicon). It is the presence of two Yeti devices (named the same) is what caused me not to continue running the G Hub application. Unfortunately, this application doesn't have an uninstall feature, and if you simply drag this application to trash can, it doesn't remove all the pieces that are installed by this application (e.g. even after dragging the application to Trash and rebooting, there are duplicate Yeti devices listed in macOS). So, to uninstall this application properly, you have to do the following:
- Drag the GHub application to Trash
- Delete the folder /Library/Audio/Plug- Ins/HAL/LogiGamingAudio.driver/
- Delete the folder /Library/Extensions/log_audio_over ride.kext/
- Reboot macOS
