Blue Yeti WON'T STOP picking up keyboard/mouse

[hunter24958]

OK so it has gotten to the point where I'm very annoyed; I've tried every position and my GAIN is on ZERO, but the Yeti still picks up the keyboard clearly even though it's around a foot away. I genuinely can not stop it from picking it up. My keyboard is a cheap £10 one but I doubt that affects the key presses, all I'm asking is someone teach me the ways of getting it to stop picking up my key presses. HOURS and HOURS of research has only lead me here... Thanks in advance.

What keyboard and mouse (Make and Model) are you using - USB connections?

And, to confirm, the microphone is picking up the mouse clicks/keyboard tapping? Or some electrical noise is going to the Blue Yeti....?

Borrow some other keyboards and/or mice and test.

Borrow another Blue Yeti and try it on your computer.

Try the Blue Yeti on another computer somewhere else to see if the problem follows the microphone.

Need to narrow down the problem.

1 ft away? it sounds like you are doing one of the big no-no's and having your microphone on the desk next to the keyboard. of course it is going to pick up the noise.

if you must have it on the desk, have it away from the keyboard. the closest source of noise should be you. if you must have it in the same area then it should be in front of the keyboard not behind.

ideally put it on a boom arm and have it closer to your mouth.
