I have a Blue Yeti USB mic and the Soundblaster AE-5 sound card. I bought an adapter so that I could use my mic through the card but it's not powered so it wont work. Are there any adapters that are powered? I also tried a powered USB hub but that didn't work.
 
Solution
The thing about USB is that it's digital as opposed to a 3.5mm jack which is analog. I probably don't have to explain the benefits of digital sound.

Plug your mic into a USB port on your mobo or case.
