The microphone adds a feature that tracks the speaker's position in three dimensions and adjusts gain, EQ, and directivity automatically. It also adds AI noise removal that reduces keyboard typing sounds and ambient noise, plus a 1.3-inch color LED display on the side of the body for presets and equalizer information, with support for custom icons. A speed dial below the screen switches presets for situations such as game streaming or podcasts. The Yeti 2 uses a redesigned three-capsule structure, and all audio processing, including the AI noise removal, runs on the microphone itself without G HUB or an internet connection. It comes in white and black, and is scheduled for release on October 15, 2026 at 26,180 yen including tax.","whyItMatters":"The Yeti 2 moves noise removal and voice tracking onto the microphone hardware, so budget USB buyers get processing that previously required software or a separate interface.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Yeti 2 carries a redesigned three-capsule array inherited from the earlier Yeti line.
