Yeti Microphone Issues With M1 Mac

Hello,


I have purchased a M1 Mac Mini recently, and connected my Blue Yeti X Microphone. I tried to use it, however, when I did a test recording, the audio was very messed up. I have attached a link to listen for yourself. I have tried restarting my device, checked it has all the permissions, the levels were corrected and have searched for solutions but have not came across one. I tried to connect the yeti microphone to a friend's intel based MacBook Pro, and the microphone worked well. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or can Apple fix this in an upcoming software update?

If you still haven’t heard it’s an issue with the M1 chip. If you plug in the yeti and restart the Mac it will work as a basic mic. Just don’t load any blue voice software. If you do open the software you have to restart. Really frustrating. My M1 Mini is still within the return period. Thinking about giving up on it.
