    Caught this on sale for and was mainly used for remote work. It seems with a firmware update it also works for Xbox Series X and PS5 consoles. I've capture a few audio recordings and quality sounds great for the price. It also comes with a digital mixer for those looking to get their hands dirty. Out of the box it sounds great and supports VST plug-ins. Compared to the blue Yet this is a no-brainer. Elgato W3 for sure.

    Amazing mic ... Works flawlessly The wave software makes it so you don't need a GO XLR But... accessories are expensive ... it doesn't come with a shock mount like the hyperX... Overall ... great product ..

    Works well, had some trouble with making the background noises cancel out initially so feel like instructions on that would have been helpful. After that microphone is top tier for streaming and not picking up all the noise

    The mic sounded comparable to the blue yeti.. I think the blue yeti might sound a bit better, but the blue yeti has nothing in terms of value compared to this mic. what makes this mic so valuable is the software that comes with it. Although I have found that the software is still buggy.. weird things like sound not lining up properly to the picture.. i.g. youtube video of ppl talking might have the sound off just a bit.. but it's very noticeable. I always say GET A DYNAMIC MIC.. but if you MUST get a condenser mic.. this is a pretty good one.. but yeah.. get a dynamic mic for streaming and discord...

    i get compliments on how i sound like a podcaster all the time. granted its from people on fortnite so they are probably used to controller player bad headsets. really a good mic for the price. only downside is the wire did that thing where on the inside the connection becomes loose and you have to mess with it a bunch to find the right angle for it to work. easy fix with buy a better usbc cable

    Awesome sound and mic! Very great features in terms of software. However, my only flaw is that no options such as EQ and stuff. Hopefully they add it later but its a great mic for the price. I absolutely love it.

    This is a great mic for web meetings, such as on zoom or WebEx. I have gotten feedback that my voice sounds crystal clear during my meetings now that I’m using this mic. I would recommend this to anybody else that is looking for a great meeting mic!
